@tombennett71 Now I have a 22 year old son that has been let down by a system that did not believe me or him. He is now agoraphobic has been for 7 years. One psychiatrist commented that he would surprised if my son could ever step foot into a school ever again because of the trauma caused.
@tombennett71 So much judgement! I do agree some are using this as an excuse, however there are so many that are not getting the support they need.
I never made excuses for either of my children. Both dx of ASD but flew under the radar as they masked so well. School never saw it.
More than twice the number of St Ivo Academy students surveyed would report their worries to their form tutor ahead of another teacher. Yet @astreaacademies has removed the morning form period to prioritise a daily check on all school uniforms.
Reflecting on the #ACEs conversation and #trauma discussions. We need to expand these spaces to include institutional ACEs and system created trauma. @Andylowarousal#FlipTheNarrative 💜
