Hiya,

My daughter has autism/aspergers and was previously struggling in a big state school class. Her behaviour is perfect in class, but the stress shows itself when she gets home...so lockdown has shown us a completely different girl. We are really hoping we can find a mainstream school with small class sizes where they can offer excellent SEN support..does such a thing exist?

Thanks x

Would you consider boarding?
Wychwood in Oxford is absolutely brilliant for girls like this.

Oh gosh no, she has separation anxiety even staying overnight at Granny's! But thanks for the suggestion :)

Sorry @blacktaz -realised you said Salisbury not Shaftsbury from where there IS a bus. Its a bit of a journey from Salisbury. I have sent a DM with some information I have gleaned form my search last year, some of which I didn't want to write publicly. If your daughter is in primary I have more info on the preps in the area but I assumed secondary.
