Hi all,
i have a 8yead old daughter who has been diagnosed with autism and dyspraxia, she was diagnosed about 2 almost 3years ago now. i moved her to a smaller school which for the first year had a fantastic effect on her, she really thrived, where as in the previous school she really struggled. It broke my heart to see her struggling, hence the move. But now a year on we seem to be going down hill. She's buildimg her walls back up, not talking, standing at the edge of the playground rather than getting involved with the other children. she's never really had friends which I've came to accept, but that was because she was happy that way, but now I feel as though now she's starting to get older the children are seeing more of a difference between them and her and basicallu bullying her. A lot of it she doesn't even notice, but somethings she does and its starting to have a huge negative effect on her. I guess what I'm asking is any advice how I could help her deAl with this. I plan on talking to school about it in the morning but i don't know how that's going to go.
Another problem I'm having is the school are majorly dragging their feet to get any support for her, for the past month I've been asking for a meeting with the teacher and Senco and still haven't got a date, I want things put in place to help her but they seem in no rush at all. Is there anyone above the school I could talk to who could help this happen?
