Could you include info about GP appointments and time off school relating to this and any particular incidents at school with approx dates?

thanks vjg13 his behaviour has always been erratic but never fallen behind in school work and had 8 month off school so because he is bright they have not picked up on it but he is very aggressive,abusive.but will look for letters from doctors and hospital

also if you can show them/run off copies of prescriptions or the label on the medicine box. if GP is sympathetic, then you could get them to write a letter.
