Hertfordshire schools for PDA/ADHD

My 7 year old is really struggling in her current mainstream primary school. We are awaiting EHC needs assessment and I am fairly confident that she will get an EHCP in due course due to her current presentation at school, which can be very disruptive. She hasn’t got a diagnosis yet (awaiting assessment) but is thought to have ASD/PDA and ADHD. She needs full time 1:1.

I just wondered if anyone is aware of any mainstream primary schools in Hertfordshire that are good for children with ASD/PDA and ADHD who have disruptive behaviours? I don’t want to swap one bad situation for another if I move her but realise I will have a battle on my hands if I try to get her into a specialist school (and I’m not sure if that would be the right environment for her anyway as when she is regulated she is able to engage with school and is ‘only’ around 12-18 months behind academically).

Any suggestions/advice would be much appreciated.
