Hi, my son is mainstream with IEP'S school Action Plus Graduated Response Level 2/3. He has been at this school for 6years. Time and time again my son endures bullying and school have said that it is his perception or they do it for a reaction. Since September 2018, my son has not settled properly back into school and has had a plethora of incidents and school are being so unhelpful and discriminatory. Always blaming and always covering up. I've had enough as well as my son. He's so emotional and he needs support. School are horrible. They suggested that I find a new school but I'm going to fight the matter with lots of support but I'm doing everything else single handed. My son is my priority. Any advice please. Please note I'm very vulnerable and I can't cope with judgmental or negative feedback.

    Yes been brushed under the carpet again. Not the first time either. I've got a meeting with school coming up. I'm taking my local assembly member from Welsh assembly. Plus taking SNAP Cymru in. School don't like me because I know what I'm on about. I'm in uni studying education, psychology and special educational needs. Plus I'm a qualified nursery manager. I've fought hard for what is in place now (supposedly anyway).

    Attends cubs,
    Attends swimming club for children with Additional Learning Needs.

    @topshoes. No my son is in year 5 of primary school.
    Yes I'm currently studying at Cardiff Metropolitan University. 
    I've had no other choice but to keep doing what I'm doing. I do write everything down. I've got a record of every letter, every email I've sent the school. I've written down notes of when I was at some meetings.

    Ask for the schools bullying policy go through it pull them up on what they haven't done quoting their policy back at them tell them if it continues you will involve the police.

    @hippedmilo looks like you got your head on your shoulders , and you got control of the situation , which is fabulous , your son is only young too , if they think they can get away with it they will properly be like that when they are in  adult life , adult bullying  is disgraceful in any shape and form and when they are a child doing it
