Hi my son is on the waiting list for our preferred school. He is currently coming to the end of Year 1 and has been on the waiting list for nearly two years.
In the meantime he has been attending another school. A few months ago his teacher said that she thought he should be tested for dyspraxia and dyslexia as she thinks there is a problem.
Tomorrow we are seeing a consultant about this.
It just occurred to me that if he is diagosed with either of these, does this mean I could obtain a statement of special needs and he would go higher on the waiting list or straight away get a place at our preferred school? If so, how would I get a statement?
If anyone has any idea I would be very grateful.
