Hi Gordon,

I was statemented at school by the local authority they might still have the statement on record somewhere in my primary school years yes I did have issues I started out in a mainstream primary school but because I had problems mainly to do with attention and obsessive behavior I was transferred to a school for children with behavioral difficulties (EBD) until I was sent to a special school with children with ASD and then integrated into mainstream secondary school with TA support. The statement certainly said I had issues including attention issues and motor coordination issues from my performance in PE lessons and of course the eventual diagnosis of ASD to which I was referred to the Educational Psychologist. So I was a statemented child for school purposes and the document went into a lot of detail about the problems I had including bullying at school (common in children with ASD). We had a copy of the statement in the house but I think it has long been binned. Do you think I should try to seek a copy of the statement as evidence especially if I had to go to tribunal? It should still be on record somewhere should I try my local council education department?

Regards,

Luke
