The experience I had, myself, at another school, bullying, etc.. I didn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t want my child to experience the same, so searched high and low for schools that are good with children with Autism (I, myself am Autistic too, so I understand my child well - he\u00e2\u0080\u0099s the carbon copy of me!). I found SDCC online and called them. They didn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t have any placed unfortunately, but I was determined to get my child into the school and with the councils help, I did! I do not regret it one bit! In primary school, my child had very little friends and a huge amount of bullies. It would never get sorted. My child kept getting overlooked, the complaints kept getting overlooked. It was awful.. in this school, now, he made 8 friends in his first two days there! He was super happy to go to school every day and still is! Every issue we\u00e2\u0080\u0099ve had, has been resolved very quickly, every question we\u00e2\u0080\u0099ve had, has been answered very quickly. Honestly, I don\u00e2\u0080\u0099t see a single fault with the school at all! My child did get bullied, by one other child in the school, BUT, the school resolved it straight away! I\u00e2\u0080\u0099m just super overwhelmed and happy! My son doesn\u00e2\u0080\u0099t have to suffer what I suffered in JKCC. I\u00e2\u0080\u0099m honestly so so happy! 40+ FREE clubs too!
