attendance worries

Hotel california

Hi, just need some advice.

Just received a letter from edu welfare officer who wants to meet to create an attendance plan for my son.  The school records are incorrect but because computer says so they are not accepting my figures.  Nevertheless he has missed school due to anxiety, stress, ill health and on three occasions sent home because school did not follow routines, which I don't believe are accurately recorded.

My question is what do ewo do in such cases.  Take me to court?  

Just to say his studies are not suffering as he continues to be in the top 3 per cent.

Look forward to some advice.  Forgot to say he has asd and a statement

  • He completes homework either at school or online.  He was seen by ed psych last Oct who acknowledged he has severe anxiety.  

    It just feel that if I force him to go to school when he is anxious it will only make things worse.  On occasions when I have done this the school has phoned me to collect him and I believe that they think I shouldn't have sent him in in such a state, but if I don't I am not supporting his education, yet it is okay for them to make the decisions
