Education?

Lelk2024

My 10 year old daughter was recently diagnosed and is a high masker. She also refuses to go to school because of emotional based school avoidance. I’ve been working with her school to try get her back but seem to be hitting a brick wall each time and there answer is maybe my daughter should move school? Can they move her if I refuse this?

  • I don't know if the school can move her - I think that's down to the local authority.

    There is advice on this website about education which might help:

    But sometimes school is not an appropriate learning environment for an autistic individual, so it might be worth exploring whether she could study at home instead if things don't improve.
