Refusing to go into school

WilliamsMummy

Hi all, 

My son (4) is refusing to go into pre-school at the moment. He keeps telling me he his sad there but wont tell the teacher this. Ive tried to discuss this with his teachers but they tell me they see nothing. They think he is happy and everything is okay.

BUT

If it was okay then it wouldnt have taken me an hour and a half to get him dressed, ending with him being late. 

He has no IEP. NOTHING!

The school isnt being very helpful. 

The SENCO has been to observe him but again saw no issues. 

My son will NOT tell people when he is sad. 

Anyone been through something similar?

Should I get the SENCO involved?

Thanks in advance 

Vicky

  • I am informed similar things as yourself that my daughter can manage on her own so we allow her to do the same at home with the homework and the outcome is she does not understand what it is she has got to do which can then lead to meltdown or screwed up work due to making a mistake (perfectionist), I then write on the back of the homework how long she sat with it and this is the results possibly two questions answered, I reasssure my daughter that is fine so long as she has tried and the teachers need to see what they need to teach you.

    It is very frustrating as you feel you begin to get somewhere then wham you go backwards.

    I hope all goes well for you at camhs, we have a second appointment with them next week.

    Laughing good luck with everything
