My Son is seven and has ASC. He’s speech and language is at a three and three and a half year old level. He was in mainstream until last year when he was six, he was classed as having the developmental age of between two and three by the teaching staff and SENCO. This year he’s attended a Specialist setting and made a lot of progress, he’s Year 2 but probably between Pre school and Year 1 academically. He knows a lot and is very sharp but can’t express. My Mum says he is so bright on one hand then on the other he isn’t functioning like a seven year old, what does she mean?
