SEN Secondary schools in and around London

[nickys003]

Hello,
I have a 9 year old daughter who has speech and language difficulties and High OT needs. school says she has Dyspraxia with speech and language difficulties and they are complex.
She is in year 5 now at a special school and we have started looking for special secondary school.
Can anyone suggest any good secondary schools in and around london? we are based in Surrey and are ready to relocate.
Thanks

have a look at oak lodge in barnet. personally i would look for a house in Hadley Wood, rather than Barnet itself, because it is a nicer family area as a whole x

Thank you
will have a look

Where in Surrey are you? And how severe are her speech and lang difficulties? Surrey has Moor House school and college which is the best speech and lang provision she could get anywhere in Europe probably. Other than that, our DD who has severe DLD is in our local state school in y7. We spent A LOT of time looking for a school and visited various special schools. In the end it turned out our local one had an amazing and huge learning support department and she has really blossomed. We could do with some more speech and lang input but she gets a 1:1 session every week and she has been trying to practise a lot on her own to keep up with other kids. She doesn't have OT needs but her school does have an OT and an OT club before school. Look around, you may be surprised at what's available.

My DS1 has Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and high functioning ASD. He attends Frewen College in rural Sussex which is an amazing school. It’s a dyslexia and dyspraxia specialist school. I would highly recommend taking a look, people relocate from all over the world to send their children there.

I hope you find the right setting for your DD, wishing you the best of luck in your search xx
