They just
diagnosed them.

What now? Breathe. Here are the steps, your rights and the mistakes to avoid.

Step 1

Breathe

A diagnosis does not change who your child is. They are the same person as yesterday. Now you just have a name for what was happening and a map to help.

→ Today: stop Googling. Read only this page.
Step 2

Keep the report safe

Make 3 copies of the diagnostic report. One for the school one for your records and one for future appointments.

→ Today: photocopy or scan the report.
Step 3

Notify the school in writing

Telling the tutor in person is not enough. It must be documented in writing with a date stamp. This starts the clock on their obligation to act.

→ This week: use inklui's letter template to request measures.
Step 4

Request a meeting with the school counselor

The counselor coordinates adaptations. Request a meeting to review the report together and plan what support your child needs.

→ This week: call or write to the counselor.
Step 5

Find a family association

You are not alone. In every region there are family associations that know the system the rights and the resources. They can guide you.

→ This week: search "[your diagnosis] + association + [your city]" and call.
Step 6

Apply for benefits if applicable

Depending on the diagnosis and your region, you may be entitled to disability benefits, therapeutic support, or tax deductions. Ask your family association.

→ This month: call the Base Center of your region.
