Guest Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Hi I wonder if someone can help me, I have finally managed to get hold of a statutory assessment form, but don't seem to be able to get any help with filling it in, i have tried our Area Senco but she says it's nothing to do with her as portage are involved, i have tried portage and the person who is dealing with the child is off sick and no one seems to know when she is due back!!!! so i feel like i'm on my own here. I'm having problems with page 2, it is all about broad and specific descriptors of educational needs, please refer to 6.6 of the SEN hand book which i have done which still hasn't helped. There are two headings - one is broad descriptors, the other is specific descriptors, it then states different areas of learning, for example cognition and learning for Broad descriptors and SPLD,MLD,SLD,PMLD under specific descriptors Communication and interaction - SLCN,ASD physical and sensory - VI,HI,PD,MSI behaviour Emotional and social - BESD What do all the codes mean, i believe MLD is moderate learning disorder, SPLD is specific learning disorder, after this i'm lost, i'm really strggling with this page and what am i suppose to write here I hope this makes sense!!!!!! as this is really doing my head in.... HELP!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 19, 2007 Share Posted November 19, 2007 Not much help, but I always thought ASD was Autistic Spectrum Disorder? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
