Will the pychologist see through this?

School have bought in a private Ed pych for my son, the peadatrician has said depending on what the ed pych report says and what his speech therapy report says then she will make a decsion on whever to diagnose him with autism or not, salt reports back and this verifys he has socail communication difficulties, im worried because my son behaves in school that that there will not be a great deal to report, saying that school bought in a private Ot who basically said he had spd too and he has hypercussis as well.

Anyway can ed pychs see through these things? i am hoping so, its been a long hard battle.

    Hi MO4B

    An educational psychologist won't just look at his behaviour, they will look for the fundamental problems of communication that autism brings. Misbehaviour just makes it harder to spot the underlying cause so if he is well behaved then the underlying problem of autism may actually be easier to see.
