Hi everyone, im new to this page but wud really appreciate some advise. Today at school, my autistic son,15, was took out on a geography field trip to the local beach. As he doesnt like loud noises or overcrowded places he asked if he cud stay behind + was told no! So reluctantly he went with his headphones. After they were on the beach for 10mins approx the group headed on up the promenade to the local cafe. Again my son felt out of his comfort zone + didnt want to go in so was told by his teacher to wait on the bench outside the cafe, were he sat uncomfortably for 20mins terrified if he moved he wuda been shouted at. On returning to school + on the verge of a meltdown he txt me to pick him up early. I told him to go to the office + tell them he wasnt feeling well + cud they phone me to collect him. At this time i didnt know about the cafe trip...nobody phoned + i collected him at normal time wen i then found out about my son with special needs was left alone outside a cafe! Im so angry that he was put in this position but i know if i go in to school i will go mad...any help appreciated plz.....Tia x
