Questions parents ask

Which schools in Brighton and Hove support autism?

Downs View Special School, Hill Park School, Brighton Aldridge Community Academy, Cottesmore St Mary's Catholic Primary School, Hove Park School and Sixth Form Centre, Moulsecoomb Primary School and West Blatchington Primary and Nursery School.

How do I get a place at a special school in Brighton and Hove?

Places at special schools usually come through an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan. If your child has one, ask Brighton and Hove council (or the council that looks after the plan) to consult the school you want. If a council, academy, non-maintained or Section 41 school is named in the plan, it must admit your child.

Who can help me with an EHC plan in Brighton and Hove?

Brighton and Hove SENDIASS gives free, independent advice on EHC plans, meetings and appeals. The council’s Local Offer explains what support is available locally.
