Good schools for Autistic girls

3 replies

moijetevoi · 07/05/2024 16:30

Hi,
I have an autistic daughter who is at a small independent school in Somerset, chosen for its small classes and nurturing environment.
Does anybody have any recommendations for mainstream secondary schools in the Bath, Wiltshire or North East Somerset area that have been especially good for their AUDHD children, that are well equipped to support the often subtle traits of anxiety, and social issues that come up (especially with girls) and don't feel too overwhelming.
I am currently looking and would appreciate any feedback from others who may have neurodiverse children in secondary education in this area.
I am not able to afford private unless we get a bursary so I am looking for feedback on both state and private options.
Thanks in advance.

I suggest you add the geography to your title, post in the SEN topic, and add some info about your DD's academic level / needs. I hope that gets you some more replies. Good luck!

Hey you may have posted elsewhere. I don’t know it but on paper St Marks in Bath looks good. Small but with an autism unit.

St marks is very boy heavy. It doesn’t have an LA funded autism unit though keeps claiming it does. It’s a lush school though. The Levels in Ashcott is fab but independent. Would suggest you join these guys www.representsend.co.uk as they seem to have all the info on a WhatsApp group.
