we had our 9 year old son undergo an assessment for dyslexia yesterday, which show that he does have dyslexia, auditory short term memory and possibly an attention deficit as well.
so far although the school were the ones to arrange the assessment they have not been very helpfull.
the senco worker has been on my sons back since september and has even been overheard saying she is sure he has adhd.
really all we want is some information on how to help our son, and to try and understand what he is going through.
he gets very frustrated at school and tends to leave the classroom or trys to run away from the teachers, on 2 occasions the teachers have had to physically restrain my son, as in their eyes he had "kicked off".
this really did not help the situation as they left my son bruised and extremly upset.
any advice anyone can give us would be very helpfull
thanks
