Can't shift surgeries either due to area. So annoying :S |
Is she in nursery Vicky, if so you could ask that she be seen by an Educational psychologist, the nursery should be able to help with this? If not ring the school where she has a place and ask to speak to their SEN lead who should be able to get an assessment for you, it's in the schools interest to have an EHC in place for when she starts if there is a problem and it will take a while to sort out the assessment
