My dyslexic son is now in Year 11 and we are starting to think about further education. Hopefully if he gets the grades he will study for a Level 3 BTEC in Business or ICT. Can anyone recommend school sixth forms or colleges that provide good SEN support and pastoral care generally.

Thanks

Based in Streatham, South London. Currently at private school but only goes up to 16. Don't want to continue in private for sixth form. Due to changes in exams and not having any coursework with his dyslexia likely to get many "C" grades.

OP, my DD is in Y12, so just started in sixth form in SE London. Lots of friends with DC in various schools/sixth form colleges.

Have you looked at Bromley College and SFX? I know teens at both and they are all very happy. I see Eldon is linking to SFX too!
