Hello,

Does anyone have any recommendations for this private school for ASD, ADHD and PDA. Academic, Sporty DC Y6 intake onwards.

It is one of the more accommodating and understanding independent mainstream schools. They have DC with ASD and/or ADHD. However, depending on the PDA, they may not admit.

Can you recommended any others of equal measure?

You will struggle to find a mainstream independent who can meet the needs of a child with PDA and will offer a place.

Depending on where you are in West Sussex, The New Forest small school might be just about doable. Although it would be a long journey, especially at school times, which may not be feasible.
