It has been an escalating issue since he started school, and now he is in year 2. The only reason I can see is that he is anxious when in a group with so many other children, as he is ok at home. But he is quite behind at school anyway and now he is missing out on many of his classes because he is too disruptive. The school SENCO teacher was really responsive and referred him to evelina community team for assessment, they thought he might have mild Autism (or whatever it?s called these days!) but the referral was refused suggesting his symptoms aren?t bad enough. She is trying to refer again, but I wonder if anyone could recommend someone privately for an Autism assessment in a 6yr old. Or if anyone has other suggestions of things that might help him.
