Ok am thinking it might be good idea get everyone together and get it all out so everyone knows what is happening , speech unit get to learn ds does just not have speech problems.Also gives me chance to get Ot and physio to say whats going on with the nhs borders etc

Ds has been referd to children with disablites team but no sw appointed infact other than ss ot no contact what so ever ,

question is can I call a TAC meeting?

You can certainly suggest it. Be clear about why you want it, though. And put your suggestion and reasons in writing in an email to all professionals involved. Harder for them to knock back parental wishes when they are in black and white.

well that depends, do you have a CAF? Has anyone started one? Here you cant have a TAC without first completing a CAF, unless your under EST.
If you dont have one, request one for HV, pre school or anyone else

Ds does have a statement

most proffessionals involved can start a CAF assessment, so either HV, preschool or paed. I personally would go with HV or Preschool. You need to explain your child has an unmet need (this is critia for CAF).
