Hi, it is very frustrating when the educational special needs system appears to let you down but my advice is to keep up the pressure and ask your consultant for support and anybody else involved with your daughter. If she is at SCHOOL ACTION PLUS on the school SEN list she should already be getting above and beyond what the AVERAGE child gets in terms of support at school and you can ASK about what extra support she is getting.My son did eventually receive his Statement of SEN but involved me harassing, very politely, everyone involved but especially the Local Authority as to why the Statement was being refused. He also has undiagnosed problems but of a physical nature. Luckily though I am a teacher and now a Special Needs Co Ordinator which meant I had a upper hand when it came to dealing with schools etc. Don't forget to ask parent partnership for help and advice too! All the best !

Thankyou for your advice, very much appreciated and glad I am not alone! But I won't give up, parent partnership have advised me not to give up too.

I would urge you to contact Network 81. . . they helped me to fight the statementing process for my son
the law is compliacted and in my opinion schools worry more about budgets and finances rather than the needs of children who need something a little different to everyone else. Your daughter NEEDS a statement in order to secure her future schooling. . .speak to Eirwen Grenfell Essam. . she is a star. The web site has the contact details. . .just search on Network 81 and you'll find them.

Thankyou! I got in touch with them and they rang me today, they are going to help me.
