Changing school

Shropshire lass

hi, need some advice, our granddaughter is at mainstream school but the school are failing to meet her needs and she spends most of her time outside the classroom as she can't cope. We want to move her to a special school where her needs can be met but the Headteacher says we have to have an Ed Psych report done and it could take up to a year to move her.

Does anyone know if this is correct , we are going round in circles trying to get info and are waiting for people to ring us back.

many thanks

  • Thank you for your reply. she has had a statement for 3 years but her mainstream place is completely breaking down and even the school are backing us in moving her.The school we want would be able to take her but it appears to be more form filling.

    I managed to speak to Parent Partnership today and they didn't think we had to have an Ed Psych report done, they were going to check and get back to me.

    Her autism psychiatrist and camhs led nurse are totally behind her moving from mainstream to specialist school..

    we are her grandparents/legal guardians.
