Primary School Recommendation - Horsham Area - Child on Autism Spectrum

[AngeMoore]

Hello,
I am currently residing in Australia and myself and my two children are moving to Horsham in February next year. My son will be 7 and my daughter will be 5. I am looking for a recommended mainstream primary school that has good support for children on the spectrum. My son has PDD NOS, and has a couple hours a day in class room one on one so he achieves his tasks/work in class. He is in mainstream school here, does quite well academically, just a bit disruptive at times and is easily distracted. Is there a primary school in Horsham (or a few) that anyone recommends that has also go good facilities and support for kids on the ASD. My daughter will be starting school next year (not on spectrum) so I am trying to have her go to the same school. We will be coming out September this year to look at schools, so anyone's feedback would be great. Also, my concern is the waitlists as well with some schools I have been looking at......Many thanks, A

I don't know of any specific schools in Horsham. obviously the junior schools have the local funding as is law for a child with a statement. Local children with more specific needs might end up being placed in Crawley, the offered my DS Blackthorns in Lindfield (has a unit) or there's woodlands mead, which I think is near burgess hill.

Thank you for your help
