Social anxiety alone typically does not qualify a child for special education services. Special education services are typically reserved for children who have specific learning disabilities or other significant impairments that affect their ability to learn. However, if your child's social anxiety is seriously impacting their ability to participate in the school environment and their education, it may be worth discussing with the school counselor or psychologist to see if accommodations or interventions can be put in place to support your child. This could include regular counseling, support from a school psychologist, or accommodations such as small group settings, extra time on tests, or modified assignments. It's important to work with the school to find the best way to support your child's needs.
