My son has been offered a place at Ernest Bevin. This school wasn't our choice, simply because it's an all boys school and as he has just been diagnosed (after the application process) with autism and Aspergers and he isn't comfortable with boys as they are too intimidating for him, all his friends so far have been girls, I don't feel it's the right environment for him. We ve appealed to get him into the school of our choice but have just found out that our appeal has been unsuccessful. Pupil services have told me to apply again to different schools with all the supporting medical information. Also any thoughts on Ernest Bevin? It has an outstanding foster report but I have heard they it has a reputation for having gangs culture? Does anyone have a child at this school and can reassure me?
