I have just received the dreaded letter stating refusal of statement. I could tear my bl**dy hair out.
My son has recently been diagnosed with Autism/Tourettes/Sensory Intergration disorder (he is 9, and we have been awaiting this diagnosis for a few years now). He attended a mainstream school but had no end in difficulties, exclusions, bullying peer/teacher.(please take a look at other threads I have postedxx) Well he is still registered at school, as I have been advised to keep him on list, but will never be going back there. He cant cope with this, gets very upset, angry, and sent out of class more imes than he is in(even though this has been denied by teachers!!) At the moment I am doing my best to HE, but this is very hard with a 19 month old, plus 2 other children at school. There is a special needs school that I do so wish to get him in, but need a statement for a placement. What is going on with the education authorities???? I am obviously going to fight, just like I have for many years getting a diagnosis, and just like I have for many years whilst he has attended school......where does the battle end??? I feel exhausted. All I want is for my disabled child to have an education. This is so wrong
