Private school recommendation needed

[Blondmuminlondon]

My nephew has high functioning autism. He is a lovely boy but unfortunately he hasn’t found his tribe in primary school and has had a bad experience, the school hasn’t been supportive, he is very academic and not sporty. The other children look at him as a geek and ostracise him. She doesn’t want to make the same mistake and send him to the wrong secondary school. She is only looking at private schools so can anybody whose been in this position or knows someone who has been give me some advice on good private schools that would be a good fit. She lives in west London so anywhere in west and south west London only.

Please only respond to this post if you can suggest a school or a private consultancy which can help.

Suggest you ask mnet to move this to secondary topic and give an idea of area you need

West London - not sure what falls into it. The obviously ones if he is very very bright are places like Westminster and St Paul's. Dulwich College is South I think so might do and is good. We are a bit further NW so where mine went would probably not be suitable. All the very academic day schools will have some high functioning autistic children as long as they can fit into a classroom situation and manage the academic work load.
