Kathryn Report post Posted October 16, 2008 (edited) Sorry to hear this. At the risk of stating the obvious - this should not have happened. At the very least it sounds as though the school haven't done everything they can to meet your son's SEN - exclusion should be a very last resort. Calling him a "horrible boy" - that's terrible! Follow this link below - Support sheet 10 which applies to you. It tells you what the correct procedure should be and what to do next. Scroll up to the top and there is a number for the ACE "exclusion line", give them a call. http://www.ipsea.org.uk/exclusion-support-...nentnostatement K x Edited October 16, 2008 by Kathryn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cariad1 Report post Posted October 16, 2008 IPSEA are a very good support organisation. I would contact your local NAS ( National Autistic Society) group and see if they can help and advise you. The NAS have been excellent in help me with my grown up son. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jlp Report post Posted October 16, 2008 Oh no what a big shock for you and your son. Try really hard to think of the positive side - that he is out of a horrible situation and that you are out of a school who don't sound like they have been the right place for him. Hopefully the exclusion will stand you in good stead for a much more appropriate placement for your son. If he's been told he's a horrible boy then that's no good and no matter what statement you get, if the school have the wrong attitude and see your son as a problem then it's a hard attitude to change. In the meantime try and ring everyone you can. My son is being sent home lots atm and I ring his consultant (I think this is all relevant to the possibility of him getting a diagnosis), parent partnership, the SEN liasion team - anyone involved in the hope that someone will do something! Thinking of you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
