@Rachel_deSouza@educationgovuk My autistic daughter is doing brilliantly now she is out of school and home educated. School was traumatic for her. She was pushed into part time attendance by the school because they could not meet her needs. At home she has a full time, efficient education.

@Fuzzy19362853@mcflymell @BikeBusCorstPS @CyclingEdin@BikeBusEdin Love my cargo bike. Avoiding driving the playgroup / nursery / school run for 9 years between this one and the previous non electric one
It's the end of an era for us, we're selling the cargo bike. Absolutely fantastic if you've got young children to transport. Please share if you know anyone who might be interested

I find it worrying that my child's school have hidden my reply to their tweet. I've found @naomicfisher really helpful in understanding issues such as attendance
@drlindalouise Thank you for this thread. It explains completely why my autistic child is thriving with home education and traumatised by her experience in school.
Pls read & RT @ICARSBanRandS report:
The Issue:
•Behavioural approaches are being implemented to manage behaviours associated with disability
•Rather than supporting accommodation needs in the school, children are punished for behaviours associated with their disabilities

@BooksandChokers Just finished watching #AKindOfSpark. NT child and ND child both thought "it was brilliant". I couldn't agree more...and I'm pretty sure I'm not the only parent who has actually met that teacher in real life (or a version of her at least)
