My first ever post! Am thinking of relocating from the SW to the North West but the location will depend on securing the right school for my child. She has SEN needs and is adopted. She functions well, is sporty and reasonably popular and manages ok in a mainstream primary but just isn’t getting the support she needs with academic work. She has developmental delay, fine motor DSD and is possibly neurodivergent in other ways. Having a ratio of 6 or 7 to one teacher would be ideal for example or somewhere with a good SEN hub and decent sports provision would also work. Would really appreciate any recommendations. She is also mixed heritage so a reasonably diverse area would also be on our list of wants. Thank you!

I think the reasonably diverse aspect would rule you out of the area we live in.

I hope you get some replies, if not I'd repost in the SN Children section Flowers

Hiya, OP. We've moved your thread for you now.

I can’t help with suggestions of places to live, sorry, but be aware if you move LA with an EHCP (which presumably DD has since you mention a ratio of 6/7 pupils to 1 teacher and a SEN hub) the new LA will review the EHCP and potentially amend, reassess or even cease or maintain. You would obviously have the right of appeal, but it is still something you should be aware of.
