DS is 5. He is super bright but has behavioural issues - impulsive, controlling and poor social skills. His current school ( highly structured and rigid ) isnt able to support his needs and wants us move him out. I am looking for a school that is sympathetic towards ASD and caters to some of his emotional/behavioural needs. We live in south east London, Bromley. happy to move another part of London for a better suited school.

Anyone recommend good schools in South/South east/Surrey that are sympathetic and willing to take on hard-work ( as his current school staff put it ) associated with teaching child with ASD?

I came across Riverston, ( we plan visit the school this week ). ANy reviews on this school? many thanks ladies

Have a look at Baston Manor too.

I have seen Riverston and was very impressed. Our reason for not sending ds there was simply because the commute to DH's work would have been very difficult.

The kids in Riverston were lovely.

Hi, I am also from Bromley and would recommend Babington House and Braeside. Not had good reviews about Riverston - send me a message and I will respond, Were about to visit until we spoke to other parents and SLts.

Looking into Baston Manor, but they are very new.

Hi there. We were thinking of going to see riverston as well so would welcome any thoughts you had on it.

Browns school in Chelsfield is a small indi school for children with ASD, or a bit further out is Trinity School in Rochester. Also there is Birtley House school in West Kingsdown (Primary age only there). Each will have their specific criteria for entry so you will need to check these with them.
