Hi @magicmumx4
If your daughter has educational needs which are not being met, whether due to her ADHD/Autism or the physical issue with toileting, you can speak to your local Special Educational Needs Information, Advice and Support Service. You can find them by doing an internet search for 'SENDIASS' and then your area. They will be able to provide information about local support services and will also signpost you to schools which may be better able to meet your daughter's needs.
