Alex is settled with his tutor who aeems to have a good understanding of what makes him tick.
He was very difficult on her last visit before half term. He kept trying to run out of the room where they were working to get to me.She made the mistake of blocking him in the room, which is always a trigger for him. So he ran over to a dining chair and tipped it over. Then he ran out of the room and told us that his ear was hurting. We discovered puss in his ear and he ended up lying on the sofa for the rest of the day. Because he doesn't verbalise what is the matter very well he ends up acting it out through inappropriate behaviour. Then once he had got the message over that he wasn't well he was as good as gold.

He has been sick all half term, with the infection and a bug that has been going around. Unfortunately his immune system being depleted means that he gets everything that's going worse than everyone else. But we had Halloween tonight and that gave him some exitement of pumpkins, dressing up and handing out sweets to the trick or treaters. Term time again tomorrow, back to the tutor.
