How can I help my daughter? Please help.

Hi

My daughter is 8 in yr3 of main stream school with a diagnosis of 'mild autism'. Her school does not recognise that she has any difficulties and have not even given her an IEP. I desparately want to help her tackle her social difficulties. She finds it very difficult to communicate with her peers. She feels very uncomfortable and struggles to talk or make eye contact with any of them. I know she needs some help but I don't know what to do.

  • Hi Daisy,

    I really think you need to get an appointment with the SENCO and the class teacher, but also you need to give them a copy of the diagnosis letter!  Ok so they should have that BUT the school my son attends never recieved the letter.

    Once they have the letter they can 'recognise' you daughters difficullties.

    Good luck. x
