At my sons last appointment with pediatrician and at his recent IEP review it was suggested that we try statementing him.

School tell me that I have a fight ahead of me because I pay council tax to Birmingham but the school is in Walsall. Apparently this means that he cannot see an educational psychologist from Walsall even though he has speech therapy, occupational therapy and a pediatrician through Walsall community health. School have said that although they can request for a Birmingham education psychologist it is unlikely to happen.

Can anyone share experiences of trying to work between to LEA's and give me advice as to what I should do to help school so that my son can have the support he needs to achieve his educational potential.
