Hi, Many thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I spoke to the senco and asked for a meeting to find out who had taken the decision to take ds's IEP away without a review and was informed that the problem had been the infant school had not done the review when it should have been done (they were waiting for a programm from S+L) and as a result his new teacher had 'assumed' that he no longer need a IEP!, basically there was a lack of communication between schools. Senco is now arranging for a new IEP to be put in place. Again many thanks for the advice. Sharon.

Hi everyone, I dont post much but i read here a lot, i'm looking for some advice regarding IEPs, DS number 5 diagnosed asd in september is 7 years old and in year 3 in mainstream, he has had a IEP since nursery school. Since reception class he has been on school action plus for social and communication skills and comprehension (he is very able academically particularly in maths). He transferred from infant to junior school in september (school is joined but run as 2 seperate schools), I assumed his IEP would run through to the juniors, however today I asked the senco when his next review is and was told he no longer has an IEP as his class teacher said he doesnt need one as his work is fine, i told her his last IEPs were for social and communication difficulties and was told that the best she could do was a IPP? for behaviour. I have not been told he was being taken off and i also was under the impression that he could not go from action plus to nothing at all? Any advice would be appreciated. Sharon.

Hello, I'm Lesley, I have 5 sons and 1 daughter, my 13 year old son has been diagnosed as ADHD since he was 7, and my 7 year old son has recently been diagnosed as ASD - although, if im honest his dad and i knew long before the official dx, he loves maths, in fact anything to do with numbers will keep him occupied for hours lol, it was so good to find this forum and although I had read up about ASD I have found your forum really helpful, (still got a lot of posts to get through) no doubt i'll soon be asking lots of questions anyway thanks for having me here Lesley
