Biography

From the age of 2 I knew something wasn't right with Devon and I took her to the doctors constantly. At the age of 5 Devon was referred to a specialist. She got one to one support in school. When she was coming to the end of junior school I was concerned she would never manage in a mainstream high school. I was told there would be support in place and plenty of help. There was nothing when she got there. Devon was bullied by other pupils. The head psychologist did a test on Devon and it came back that she was working at the level of a 6 year old even though she was 14. I was told it was harder to diagnose a girl and she had slipped through the net.

She is now in a special school and is loving being around children similar to herself. Her anxiety is getting a bit more under control now. Devon is the most loving and caring girl. xx
