Secondary Speech and Language Units/Secondary ASD Units

[working9while5]

Hi all

I am trying to locate secondary provisions attached to mainstream schools for students with ASD or Specific Language Impairment or both.

I am struggling to locate this information and wondered if any of you who are aware of units in your areas could pm me so that I can contact them?

Many thanks!

mellow lane has an asd unit - but it's well hidden :)

And I think both Mellow Lane and northwood have a Speech unit.....

where are you working9while5

try tthis nas link it covers education might help

www.autism.org.uk/directory.aspx

I know of two in West Lothian and one in Falkirk (council not town) - I suspect that Scotland's not that useful to you though? lol

There are two secondary ASD units in Oxfordshire that I know of : The Cherwell School in Oxford and Lord Williams School inThame. However, listed under the Guide to Special School and Resource Bases in Oxfordshire, they have also named The Marlborough School.

What area are you looking in?

i am also looking for a SLI based school for primary and high, since the LEA have decided that the school my dd is in is not sutable for her and they have stated the she needs to go to a special SLI school.

where does OP live though as there are to many/ but not enough iykwim to mention ive two in my area but may be too far to travel to for OP

I am not a parent, so it's a bit different for me. Basically I work in secondary provision and want to make links with other areas. I don't want to say where I am as it might identify me and I am always on here ranting on about talking about provision inequalities so...

I am looking for anywhere from Birmingham in the South to Newcastle in the North but could go further if necessary. I know that there are units in Barnsley, Bradford, Kirklees, Leeds, Manchester and Sheffield so far..

Thanks, that would be brilliant! If it's easier to just send the whole list, I can do the extracting?

Hertfordshire have secondry speech unit but any sniff of Asd and your going to struggle for a place

ive the same list you can ask the lA to send the list direct to you like someone earlier said its about 90 pages long they sent mine befor the final statement as i just rang and asked hth

There are two in the Reading area of Berkshire, Blessed Hugh Faringdon & Theale Green Community School.
