Just introducing myself.

Hello everyone. 

I am a mum to a 4 yr old who was diagnosed with ASD last yr. She has delayed speech and does not communicate or interacts with her peers. She has been at school for 2 and a half wks now and seems to be settling. I am so anxious for her. 

I would love it if anyone can advise me on if I should be pushing for a statutory statement. Teacher is arranging for IEP as she has gone in under school action plus. My paediatritian says she Is shocked that there is no statement and has written to LEA but no sure if any notice will be taken.

  • Hi - yes, do everything you can to get a statement.  It will benefit her educationally.  Check out the home page + the posts for info about statementing.  On this site we all find out sooner or later that we have to fight to get what's needed.  Good luck with everything.  Ask anything you want.  People will try to help.
