My 9 year old son goes to a special school and has been there nearly 2 years.
He loves school and always enjoys going.
He also gets a taxi to school along with 2 other boys who go to the same school.
This week I have had reports back via his home school book that he is very distressed once he arrives at school and is hitting his head and banging it on the floor,he’s also lashed out at other pupils and teachers.
This is not like my son and is completely out of character.
He calms down eventually and has a good day at school but when he knows it’s time to go home he gets upset and starts hitting and crying again.
The school seem to think it’s the taxi he dislikes.
He has had a new driver and escort and car since going back to school after Easter and was initially upset by this but had calmed down.
Dont really want to take him myself as I think it’s good for him to have the time without me for a change.
I have his annual review tomorrow so will discuss what can be done.
Obviously he doesn’t tell us why he’s upset so it’s a guessing game as to the triggers of his upset.
Has anyone else had this problem or an anyone offer any advice?
