Oh it just gets better !!

3 weeks tomorrow and still no Environmental Audit report from SEN.  Last we heard was they wanted to 'run it past' the school before sending it out to us. Mmmmmm wonder why?   Well its now half term and so nothing is likely to happen. Wonder why the school did not return it the day it was sent or even the day after? Oh I know - lets let them wait longer, more likely to withdraw their places.
This audit was requested by SEN team because the school insisted they had no space to use for the boys as a calming down area. The information is needed by us to make our final decision on whether or not the school is suitable.  Well it clearly isnt - I would not send the boys there now if they paid and begged me. So much for the church school being inclusive - what happened to every child matters?. Ours clearly dont matter to them and I dont believe they ever would.

update - received the report today - doesnt say anything we dont already know. Would have expected some kind of input from the SEN department as to their views on what can or cant be done with the resulting information.  Guess will have to chase that too.  There are a couple of rooms in an old house in the grounds of the school, used to be the headmeasters house. Evidently these rooms are used for small group teaching, exams, and for teachers to quietly plan work in when not teaching.  These are the only rooms that they feel would be suitable, but are not suitable if you see what I mean.  Whilst I understand the lack of space, if J&B were already at the school and developed this condition they would have to accommodate them - there would be no question - they would not suddenly be able to use the excuse of no space as they would be told in no uncertain terms 'find some' as per the disability act.  No doubt the teachers would find somewhere else like the staff room to quietly plan work should J or B need to use one of the rooms.  Guess thats too difficult for them to work out for themselves.  Shame they are not a bit brighter, shame they cant take their blinkers off. God help any SEN child that needs support above and beyond what this school deems to be 'their way'. Its clearly their way or the highway.  I thank god I will not have to deal with these morons on a frequent basis.
