Just curious about people who slipped through the net, so to speak. How did you cope with school? I developed quite good ways of hiding how much i struggled. It helped that i was in most of the bottom sets, as no one really cared back then. I was in the top set for biology, i excelled in that area. Nothing else part from sport. I hated going in every day, i was like a zombie....i literally cant remember my last year in school. Ive blanked it out completely.
School!
I went through many schools, and that includes two special schools and I had many long absences of months at a time when I just couldn't cope.
Here is a copy of my earliest school report when I was eight years old.
Well since we seem to be sharing school reports here's the middle of the one my school did just before they kicked me out. Was only there for about a year. Soon as they got the dyslexia report they asked for they kicked me out on the basis they couldn't provide the support advised. I imagine if I'd had an autism diagnosis at the same time it would have been much the same story.
