Don't know what to do- 4 exclusions in 4 weeks

Nome

my son is six, year 1. He is not coping with school. He has now been put on a part time timetable, mornings only. We have to collect him and find child care for him in the afternoon (and his childminder's patience seems to have worn out).

He has been excluded on the second day of the school week every week this term. Which has meant either my husband or me taking unpaid leave to care for him as the childminder will not have him if he is excluded.

He hits his teaching assistant. He claims he does not even remember what happens.

we are looking at specialist provisions, but he cannot move until his ehc is sorted out.

we are lost. We do not know what to do to help.

Someone tell me it can get better...

  • Sounds like a similar situation to us, in that our soon to be 6 year old has not managed starting school at all.  He is also very aggressive and quick to hit.  Fortunately the school is very understanding and have introduced a whole bunch of strategies to try and support him.  He has recently taken to picking up chairs to try and throw at teacher if stressed and not able to control situations.  I know how you must be feeling :( is the school helpful?  I'm sorry I don't have a whole lot of advice, but just well done and I do believe it will get better - that's what others tell me anyway.
