Have you considered looking in from the child's perspective? Or does the research not require that perspective? Good luck with the research be sure to post the outcome since I would find the results to be Interesting.

Ok whatever. Also for you Information I scored an A* on my English exams.

I forget too add that I'm typing all this Via a mobile touch screen. Sometimes it double clicks and other times It changes words Into other things. I put capital I since It looks better. I hate this i looks weak. Basic mathematics? I've put no equations In there and according too the scale I've seen 0-70 Is retarded and 70-90 Is borderline retarded 90 Being less so.

Of course not but hindsight Is a wonderful thing. But It does justify my position a tad more.

Everyone was doing the same. I was just picked out because I had AS. The teachers had a go at everyone In general too start with then just me when the found out I had AS.

Thanks for that Insight. Supposedly this School is for bright AS kids. Since there are only two people Including me always achieving A-A* I would disagree. We've got students that are around 80-90 In the IQ department, thats borderline retarded according too the scale. I've been talking too my parents about a move back too mainstream or home education but three years ago I was aggressive and thats when I was homeschooled. Another point Is we've paid 30K too get me where I am In legal fees much too my Objections.

I think your Son shows AS traits. I would say Ignore it don't label it down don't tell him If he's got it and treat him normally. Thats the best thing you can do. Quick question Is he got good Hand eye Co-ordination has he got any good hobbies also? That expend lots of energy.

Trust me It was genuine friendships from Primary and others from Hobbies. I can tell the ones that were posers because I was 'cool' for mucking about. I know teachers didn't want too help after that, yet the few that did said If I stayed In school long enough I would do my GCSEs In year 9 and As Level In year 10-11.

Go to my mainstream college. My last school almost kicked me out after mucking around In lessons and doing nothing. That and Insulting teachers. I had friends and I fitted In well except for the fact I was hated by the teachers. Well most of them anyway. I know A level Is a bigger step up and I want too work again. I've not even entered the classroom. I wasn't there too be "taught" and yet I've still gotten my A/A*.

I've currently done no work had no teaching from my current "special" school and have frequently gotten A/A* my Question is simple Is this normal for AS or Exceptional. I ask this since my class mates are achieving at best C with maximum input and my friends In mainstream are getting the same Marks as me. Is this normal and If my current school Is making me miserable and has given me depression Is there any point In me going there. I think the LEA could use the £135,000 better elsewhere. Forgot too add In what's a good average for someone with AS in the IQ department? Mines over 140 and enough too join Mensa. Please excuse me If I sound like I'm trying too brag I just wish too compare with a wider range of people than my school area. W

I also have sensory Issues and hated Sun tan cream. Don't worry you grow out of It from being persistent. I would say the best way too prepare him Is by treating him normally and making Him behave normally. Worked for me and I had loads of friends at my secondary. But different circumstances call for different measures.

It should be up around Sunday time all things permitting. Otherwise It could be months.

Thanks guys. Will Post the test run before i email it.

The talking method has failed So I was planning on writing a piece that shows the full extent of everything that goes on and the problems of this school.

I went too mainstream throughout primary and for 3-5 Years of my Secondary. I'm still getting high grades and haven't attended my lessons as I find them degrading too my Intellect. I was Diagnosed at 12, and I was diagnosed as very Mild. And considering anger pushes you up the AS scale as such I believe I may not be AS.
