J for the first time ever has actually asked for something ... a Wii - I have consequently been trawling the shops/net to try to get one. Finally ordered over the internet on Friday afternoon - just hope it arrives ....

Those with AS fret and worry Those with HFA couldn't care less My own personal hypothesis Should have been here for the evening of fretting on Monday when I booked a train ticket online for hubby and he had to collect it from a ticket machine .... had to write down the instructions and go over it so many times I lost count. Eventually found a flash movie of how to collect them ... !!! Came home on Tuesday night pleased as punch cos he was able to show some young lads how to use the machine!!!

Don't you have to sign the IEP to say that you agree with the targets? You can always say that you feel that they need to be more specific. If you get no joy from the senco then speak to the head about your concerns ( if the meeting doesn't go well make sure you tell the senco that you will do this - so they don't feel you are going behind their back) After that then it's up to the SEN governor - but hopefully the senco will see that these are objectives rather than targets and that you need the IEP to show the steps that G needs to take to attain the objectives.

J is a chewer/sniffer - it's got better as time has gone by - he's 11 now and uses dental tooth sticks to satisfy his sensory needs in chewing - that and pen tops - the sniffing remains and we're working on it ...

In our area the LEA provide the cost of the LSA and SALT (not without a long long battle for the latter) - the main benefit of the statement is that it is legally binding on the LEA to ensure that all the support written into the statement in part 3 is provided - anything else that is put in Place at Scool Action or School Action Plus can be withdrawn at any time and you would have no comeback for your child ...
