Recommend me a sen school

My son curtently attends a state secondary school in London for children with sen.
Most children there have autism and a learning disability but no real behavioral difficulties (most kids delayed.. but not really any extreme behaviours iykwim).
My son enjoys this school and fits in well but I'm desperate to move away from London.
Can anyone recommend me a school for dc with similar needs but is away from any major cities please?
Thanks

What level of learning disability does DS have?

Are you looking for any particular area?

Be aware if you move LA the new LA will review the EHCP and potentially amend, reassess or even propose to cease to maintain. You will obviously have the right of appeal, but it is something you need to be aware of however unlikely it may seem.

Hi, thanks for replying.
He saw an Educational Psychologist when he was 11 (two years ago) and I was told he was pre-school level - not much has changed since then really, but like I said no extreme behaviour or anything and he gets very nervous around dc who do have behaviour difficulties.
I don't think any LA would be able to say he doesn't need an EHCP.
Not really looking for any particular area - just somewhere quieter with a school that would suit my ds.
Probably asking the impossible though, as I guess most sen schools will be in big cities.
Ds really loves the beach so within an hour drive to a beach would be great though.
