Thank You crazycrofter for your personal experience.
Also Um your suggestions are helpful as always and I am going to meet the SENCO with some scenarios tomorrow. I haven't heard anything negative so far regarding pastoral care so that's a good starting point .
You're absolutely right about GoZen for anxiety - both my boys have been using this for the last 2 months - and another programme called GoStrengths by the same group ( for emotional resilience ) . They also use a fantastic resource from Australia called Secret Agent Society which is about decoding Non Verbal Cues by working through 'missions' on the computer .
They and I have also started using the Headspace App for Mindfulness over the last month - there is a good section for children .
It's a long and hard slog ....
