It's been ever so quiet on here. I have been so bogged down with new job (full-time - far too much to cope with long-term, but at least I have got a job), getting used to being back in rather changed circs with Covid and all.
Butterfly is better off being at school all day, as she does not have to do close relationships that much and is so wired that she needs constant structured activities.
Teachers are fab, nothing is too much and they are trying their best to protect B from teasing and unkindness from other kids, as the gap is widening. Kids have picked up on her being different, and what did not phase them in reception is a much bigger deal now they are older.
Home life is still precarious, but no more homework for us and we have sailed through to the next stage of B's EHCP application process, where they are now trying to work out what exactly needs to be written into it. Any pointers from those who have walked this path would be much appreciated, so I do not miss anything inadvertently.
Roll on mid Jan, when we have got a meeting with the board.

Lovely 😍 update flutterby wow you have achieved so much.... many congrats on your job great to flex different 'little grey cells!' Superb news about butterfly's 🦋 school...
No real tips about EHCP sorry except perhaps to get school/specialised input listed & named so it has to be provided by the la without argument....
Yes sadly very quiet on here 😢 😕 😪 😔 ...
Sending hugs xx
Xx moo 🐮

Glad to hear things sound a lot better. I would echo what has been said about making sure all support from professionals that is needed is stated clearly.e.g. SALT, OT, specialist teaching service etc. It is really hard to get it added at a later date. If you are not happy with the draft when written you can ask for changes too. Hope the EHCP comes through fairly quickly so B gets the support she needs in school.
