We're thinking of moving from near Oxford to Bath (near my work) over the next 18 months.
My DD is 9 and currently attends a private prep - she's doing fine, not massively academic but probably somewhere in the middle, happy, artistic and outgoing but probably suits a small/friendly environment. I figure there will be lots of choices for her.
My son (12) has MLD and autism. He has an EHCP and is a special needs secondary school. Having ended up in court due to lack of places I am a bit terrified of experiencing the same again!
Having called the SEN schools in/around Bath - they say they are massively oversubscribed (although I see a new school is being built in 2025?).
We are currently very rural here and I like the idea of my son being somewhere he can walk to a shop when he gets older - albeit with help.
Any advice as to what living in or near Bath is like with a child with SEN?
And suggestions on good locations to access schools, which will suit both children?
Thanks in advance for your advice!!
