shamu Report post Posted May 23, 2007 DS (age 3 and a half) had his statementing process commenced in Feb and his draft statement has arrived today. There are a few (minor) things I disagree with but what is a "specialist mainstream resourced setting"? Is it just their way of getting round putting specialist setting so they can put him in mainstream? I am pretty anti mainstream for him.... He is going to a mainstream nursery from Sept in a SEN place (assessment placement on paper) so is that what they mean? I'm assuming that they can't really make long term decisions re:special school from now? Plus we're moving borough (on Friday!) so it's all abit academic.... Thanks Shamu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks Shamu I am presuming it means a specialist ASD unit attached to a mainstream school. Is there one in your LEA? Sarah Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarah Thanks Sarah That's what I thought (and would like). There is one in our current borough but we are moving on Friday and there isn't one in our new borough! Not sure what they'll make of this then.... Will do some asking around Shamu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
