School not helping!

Hello everyone,

Just venting my frustrstions. My son age 10 years has after years been diognosed autisic spectrum disorder. School had labelled him as special needs and more or less ignored him for 5 years.Whilst this happened we had been to various appointments to try and prove that he had autisum. One such app was with a certain doctor who after we explained our sons symptoms said that he had a fetal impaction gave us lacatives to give him and ending the consultaion with the diognosis that he was Slow! 

We then find that our son has coliac desease and is autisic!

After all this when we finally get the correct assesment school is doing nothing to help.

excuse grammer typed on my phone and cant quite get the hang of it yet!

  • certainly not! It is not easy, they will try to beat you down, then it dosnt cost them. I knew my daughter needed support, and that the only way to make sure she recieved the support she needed was with a statement, i wouldnt have let her back near a school without one, i feel i can hold them to account now,  before we didnt have a leg to stand on, they pretty much were doing what they wanted. I reckon with cuts in education it will only get worse! My son is currently at home, same thing really, im considering requesting a statement assessment for him again i wont let him near a school without it.

    The poeople who are supposed to help really do need to help instaed of making it awkward, im fed up of them all!
