Exclusion

Wondering if anyone has any advice. Our daughter currently attends a mainstream school, awaiting a diagnosis for asd. She has support for most of the day as she has tendencies of violence towards staff and peers.

For 30 minutes at lunch time she is unsupported which today has resulted in her hurting 8 children. She has since been excluded for a day (tomorrow)

My question is do we have any leverage of which to say that we don't agree with this decision and speak to our Borough to appeal this decision.

Anyone been in a similar position that could offer any advice. Much appreciated.
