Have just received a proposed statement for my daughter and need to name a school by 2nd July. We're really struggling to come up with suitable options.
She is yr 7 and currently in mainstream but has not been able to attend since February due to school related anxiety. She is selectively mute when in school but was still achieving very highly academically. Also musically talented (has grade 8 violin) and loves languages. She couldn't cope with the environment and made no friends.
The statement says that she needs smaller class size and school with knowledge of ASD.
Any suggestions welcome. We live in South East London but could look up to an hours drive away or even residential for the right school. Any type of school, mainstream unit, specialist or mainstream independent considered.
