Hi
my daughter is in year 6. She has a diagnoses of adhd, she has a paediatrician and is on medication. She is under the senco in school. We are waiting for an Assesment for autism also.
She struggles in school as the work has got harder (she is a few years behind) and she struggles with emotions and friendships. If her only best friend is not in she is on her own and takes herself off to the library. Her dad died when she was two and that affects her as-well though she has had grief counselling. She has had many assessments from speech and language.
We had a chat with the senco this morning and it’s unlikely that she will get in a sen school (with funding and how hard it is these days) but to chat to the senco at chosen mainstream schools and go from there. She is close to getting a SSPP which I personally have been saying for a few years to the senco but is only doing it now. She has also been bullied in school.
I have to choose a secondary school by next month and would just like some advice really. I feel my daughter is going to struggle a lot.
