Extra time for dyslexic
Posted: Mon Apr 14, 2008 12:52 pm
My son is in year 5.
I have asked my son's school for extra time as he was diagnosed with dyslexia at 7 but they refused.
He does not need help in the class room and came off SEN in year 4 (which coinsided with the senco leaving and being replaced by a Provisions manager)
We have a new head starting soon so should I bide my time and ask again in the summer or would that be too late.
I wonder if rocking the boat might go against us in a headmasters appeal or should I hope for the best and use this info in an appeal?
Any advice welcome.
