Pupil Referral unit

Donegal Diva

Guys,

My son is being given a place at a Pupil referral unit and I've got no choice but to take it.  I do however need to visit it this week and wondered if there were any questions I should ask about the unit.  Any watch outs and anything I should ensure is in place before he starts.

 

Thanks in advance.

  • Hi

    Thanks for the feedback.  My son is 9 and we are in the process of getting him a diagnosis. Until 6 months ago he was coping well in mainstream school and had no inkling of ASD (would not have know what it meant). 

    However his behaviour deteriorated in year 4.  He had a two teachers who job shared and one then left mid term to have another baby.  His anxiety levels escalted and his behaviour went downhill.  We need to get a statement in place and the PRU is the route to a statement.

    I've now visited and have been impressed.  It is small and they have experience in ASD.  Hence I' m hopeful now it will help. He starts on Monday so keep me in your prayers and wish me luck.
