Its not just the schools that need highlighting but also improvement in referrals for assessments with such a long waiting lists, as some schools do actually alert to such conditions but they need confirmation from consultants/practioners, so that they can get specialist support teachers/equipment etc, schools are not equipped with learning tools or specialists teachers to start with till they have children with actual problems & that comes down to diagnosis so working with schools & practioners need to be closer together, im fortunate to have a supportive on the ball school but awaiting the consultants diagnosis & assessments now.
