mamabear appeal bucks

Thanks jabba7, it IS a horrible process especially when you have to put on a brave face for your dc when really all you feel like doing is having a good cry.

MamaBear - it is a review or an appeal you are aiming for?

I'm concerned that an Ed Psych report won't arrive in time for a review ...

[MamaBear]

Thank you guest55, the lady we spoke to fitted us in very quickly.she said it normally takes 2 weks to write up a report but that she will do it super quickly and email it to us so its ready for the deadline.

thank you for pointing it out though, im really grateful to you and other forum members for your advice and encouragment.

Feeling a bit better after the weekend about everything. We have our ed psych report on wed. A friend of a colleague who is a primary school teacher has kindly offered to administer a sats test to our homeschooled ds2 and to give him levels.
we have written to our gp, I hope his letter will support our case further.

Back to homeschooling today and I have to say ds2 is such a gem to teach, that the prospect of homeschooling until gcses does not seem so daunting anymore.

Good luck mamabear, we are in a similar situation hoping to review . X

[MamaBear]

Thank you dollydripmat, best of luck with your review too.

[MamaBear]

UPDATE: We saw the ed psychologist today and she was very helpful. Next on the agenda is to take ds2 to a primary school teacher who will level his work and give him predicted SATS levels. Hopefully that will be the last exam for ds2.
Its a mad rush to try and get all the paperwork done in time, then we can forget about it until Feb. I hope!

Mamabear I'm having the same sort of week, rushing around, photocopying , collating evidence and advice. Great news about the ed physc and SAT's testing. And yes then we can we can "try" and forget about it until feb! Good luck with the tests. Dolly x

[MamaBear]

Thanks dollydripmat, lets hope Feb comes around quickly! Good luck with your review, its good having something constructive to do.

This may be a stupid question .. but ... photocopying what?

All we have to photocopy is the school report. What am I missing?
