school threatening prosecution over son skipping lessons?

Hi I don't know if anyone can help, my son attends an ARC unit, he is diagnosed with autism, adhd, sensory processing disorder, dyslexia, the list goes on and he is statemented.

He is medicated when at school but I don't medicate him at home, I manage to get him up, washed, fed, dressed and into school early everyday without fail.

Because the arc are struggling to get him into lessons they have threatened me with legal prosecution, culminating in a fine and/or prison. I fail to see how I can be responsible for their failing?

A friend who is a teacher said they can't and mentioned in loco parents - instead of a parent.

Any help would be appreciated x
