my daughter cant cope in mainstream school

Hi all,

I am new to this forum so hello.

My daughter is 5 and has complex needs she is autistic,dyspraxic,with a learning difficulty and speech and language problems ,she has been to 3 schools since she was for as the schools wouldnt except anything was wrong and she was being badly bullied and neglected also upset,bed wetting,aggressive.She is currently in a school where they have agreed to statementing and working with us which was another fight,she has been there since december and is in a class of 30 with a 1to1 who dosnt understand special needs at all.

My problem is whilst waiting for the statement she is not coping and is getting worse,she is extremley hypersensitive and hates crowds,noises,children crying,screaming,lights,no structure,smells,assemblys eating lunch in the dinner hall and finds the whole day frightening,she withdraws into herself and dosnt eat ,talking very little and is in a constant state of panic and anxiety.When she gets home she is aggresive,hyper and very stressed,she never wants to go to school and wets the be at night .I hate her having to go to this school as it is not right for her at all,I have found her  a brilliant school but she needs the statement to get in.Do I really have to put her through this stress I am so worried what this is going to do to her .

sorry long winded,please any help I would be very grateful.

  • Hello,

    do you know if the SEN code of practice regulations about special schools applies to units attached to mainstream schools as well?  I want to get my daughter into an ASC unit which is attached to a mainstream school, they say she needs not only a diagnosis (she is being assessed) but she must have a statement too.  I've just started the statement process but I am waiting to hear whether they will agree to let the application go through.
