Hi all
Just to update you all and offer hope to others;
My now 12 year old daughter has been given a statement and a place in a school with a base for autism! (massive sigh of relief!). This is despite having good literacy skills and her primary school and high school (which she only attended 8 times!) both telling the Educational psychologist that they didn't notice any problems. If you read my previous postings you will see my daughter had massive problems at school, but all of the suffering was her's. She was well behaved and did her work, thats all that mattered to them! It has been a real struggle to get her any support, she is passive autistic and has a blank expression that doesn't show signs of distress until she gets home and lets it all out. Her cognative age was 7 on the psychologists test, the school did not notice!!!!
But we have got there in the end! This is hopefully the start of proper help and understanding for her! :)
