You need to get the Occupational Therapist (OT) on board with you leveraging for him not to miss recess due to sensory needs and ADHD. You also claim that missing recess is totally unacceptable for a child on the spectrum for social reasons, because of the loss of peer interaction. Does he have social skills goals written into his IEP?

 

If the situation is such that the classroom teacher is claiming she can only help him complete his work at recess then there's your leverage for a one-on-one aide.

 

Make sure that you work through this with more than just the classroom teacher and involve the team.  Some teachers want to project the image that they can handle it all (and a few don't like aides in their rooms all day) and are reluctant to involve services that bring in extra help.
