Getting LEA to fund an Independent School

Heather

We are finally on the 5th day at my son's new school. Only 2 hours a day and he will build up to full time for the New Year. No huge fall outs, a lot of wetting himself and some tantrums when he is tired. Initially we saw some panic attacks, but they have ebbed away and he seems cautious, but accepting of the change. The School have been thrilled by his approach. Their first goals are to try and get him to enter a room with other pupils, then they will work on the play ground....could be a 6 month project for them! The Ombudsman is looking into the shambles of a system we experienced in getting our son back into education. There's a huge job there to keep them busy! And when they asked us what we wanted to achieve from our complaint i said "To stop the education board putting other parents through the stress we suffered" Her reply "IN YOUR DREAMS!"
