SEN advice

Hi,

I have an amazing 5 yr old son who has autism (clinically diagnosed).

Does anybody know whether the school needs parental consent to put a child on the SEN register?

I’ve googled and can’t find a clear answer! Id be grateful to hear your experience (s).

  • Hello,

    its my understanding that the paediatrician will write a very brief letter to school and this info will mean the child is listed as having additional needs.  The parents will also give info to the school .  When a child moves to a different school this information would be passed on.  I do think parents have to check all of this is happening though ! Hope that helps.
