accommodations in school

Hi, I am in sixth form and have autism. My mum is about to have a review of my senco plan. I am needing more support for my autism  and I don’t know what support is actually available for me but I am really struggling without it.

More specifically general support. As i already have exam support.

i do not have an ehcp but have an equivalent plan by my school which is followed well

Me and My Mum don’t know what help is available so any advice from parents of autistic teens or autistic teens about what my mum can ask for would be appreciated

  • Hiya,

    Currently in my second year of 6th form and have found the support great.

    I currently get:

    - a quiet space for lunch and break if i don't wanna socialise

    - listen to music in lesson

    - leave lessons if it gets too much

    - All my teachers are aware of my diagnosis and my common stims

    I can't think think of anything else right now. Write a list of the things you struggle with and then take that to the meeting. The SENCO should then be able to suggest things to help reduce the struggle
