I have a Year 9 Son with Aspergers (diagnosed at 6 years). He is currently attends a specialist school specifically for boys with AS. He is desperate, however, to return to a mainstream setting and we are utterly torn between whether to approach our LEA (who fund his current provision) and ask them to consider this (knowing that they will but for financial reasons rather than it being in my son's interests) or continue to manage the situation (him being angry with us all the time he is at home and threatening to refuse to attend school) or consider a small mainstream independent secondary school which, ideally, would be sympathetic to his condition - does such a school exist in London?
Any help/knowledge would be hugely appreciated.
