This is brilliantly written - we have lots to talk about Vee! Well done on doing a great job getting your kids out and about. I have some idea of negotiating all of the extras and that's with one. Currently fighting for EHCP amends and to keep my son (now 18) in his 'alternative provision which is not great but also a godsend after 5 years of isolation - got him back mixing with other kids and in a small supportive 'learning' (in the loosest possible terms) environment. A good friend of mine has a son, now in his 30s, with ADHD. She got him statemented after a long battle (she's a lawyer) and he got a specialist school place and got 10 GCSES with the right help and support...obviously that school is long gone...The terrible cutting and de-resourcing and roll back of expertise and support for any SEN since 2010 is abominable. This government could have changed that and decided to try and make it a whole lot worse.
