farfalla Report post Posted November 19, 2007 I have just got off the phone, it seems like I have been on it all day! A lady called Pam from the PWP phoned today, and she has taken A LOT off my mind, and I am realizing I'm not some mental mum with an attitude........ I CARE. She has given me loads of advise, and is sending me out some literature on different issues myself and DS are having at the moment. She is also ringing me back tomorrow with some other info I brought up, and told me together we will make this all work. She has given me hope that me, and me alone can put DS forward for an assessment, and that no matter what happens with the school, I will be backed up. She has given me hope that I can see a light at the end, even though its as big as a needle tip. I then got a call from the SENCO, she rang to discuss how they could move forward with DS, and the bullying he received last week. (She wasn't able to discuss the outcomes, as this is now being dealt with by the Head of year.) She did say that DS, was still not approaching people to discuss issues he may have during school time. So I explained that DS has to build up a relationship with someone before he feels that he is able too talk. God its bad enough trying to get him to talk to me! But I manage! She has also changed his timetable so he is attending sessions each day with the Behavioural teacher, on his social skills......... this one they need luck with! She did now explain that the behavioural teacher had seen DS at lunchtime, in a lesson, and one to one. So I am hoping that the report back will have more hope included. I have had to ask for a meeting of progress, even though last term I was told this would happen in the first two weeks of return......... Now booked for the 13th December, just before break up! So for now, I still focus all my energy on my son, there is not an hour go by when he is at school that I don't wonder if he is ok. After all children are a part of our soul, after all we bring life into life Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Clare63 Report post Posted November 19, 2007 Glad you found PWP so supportive. Sounds like the school are trying to help your son but sadly don't quite understand his needs or how he feels about things. At least you are moving in the right direction.
