How can I help my five year old

Sorry for the long post. My five year old, almost 6, started school in august. So far we’ve had the odd little instance where he doesn’t want to go into school but he always goes in. At his recent parents evening his teachers seemed really happy with how he was progressing. I mentioned that since he had finished nursery and began school I don’t feel like any support has been put in place to help him. At nursery we had daily chats at hometime with his teacher. Nothing huge, maybe a wee 30 seconds but long enough for us to know if he’d had a good/bad day or anything she wanted to tell us. They had input from the educational psychologist and a local team who helped the nursery to help him with his speech/social mixing and so on. At school there has been nothing. I mentioned this at the parents evening and now we have a meeting set  with the psychologist, his teacher and the head to basically have a proper with each other I think. I don’t know if hat I should ask them to do, or what they should offer. I see people online mentioning ECHP I think, like plans but I have no idea what they are.

my worry is that they say my little guy is doing well he seems to be trying so hard to be like the other kids, to copy what they do/how they act. If he’s happy then I’m happy but after school he is so tired and like a ticking time bomb. It’s like he keeps everything in all day and just becomes so wound up. It’ll either result in shouting or so many tears and he just says he’s so tired. I’m just at a loss how to help him feel comfortable/happy to just be him. I don’t know if this makes sense but any advice would be so very appreciated.
