First AR coming up - what to expect?

[chocjunkie]

Dd is in reception, first AR coming up next month.

what should i expect/do? who us usually present?
just the Senco or also Salt, Ot and muppets from the LA?

how can I make the most of it?

also we had to appeal to tribunal to get Dd's statement quantified etc. Should i expect the LA to claw back the provision and make us appeal again?

Someone from the LA will probably be there. In my case the autism outreach person came, class teacher (if they can be bothered getting a supply teacher in) the SENCO and DS's 1:1. No therapists. If they want to reduce provision you can disagree. Thankfully the autism outreach person seemed to be on our side and we never had provision reduced.

I used to take a written report of my views etc and hand copies around. You should get an agenda. Perhaps you could take a friend and volunteer that they take minutes? Otherwise the AR report is pretty formulaic.
