Educational Psychologist Meeting

Me and Mr Messy met with the Education Psychologist and SENCO this morning. The Ed Psych had already observed Little Prince and made notes on what he had seen. We were there for about half an hour and covered a lot of ground, what issues we thought were most pressing, how we thought he could be better supported in school and his background history. We will receive a copy of the Ed Psych's report once it is ready. We mentioned that we are waiting for an appointment at the local hospital after being referred by our GP, and the Ed Psych knew the centre we could be referred onto from the hospital. We agreed that rather than overload Little Prince with too many assessments we will wait and see if he is referred to the centre, which will assess him. If he isn't referred onto there then the Ed Psych will come and assess Little Prince himself, he will be in contact again in Sept/Oct to decide which way we are progressing. He was very positive that we are supporting and helping Little Prince and that much can be done to address his issues in the future.

This afternoon we had a phone call from the local hospital to check if a week on Friday was a good day for Little Prince to attend. So things are moving forward on that front too :-)
