is home schooling better for aspergers 11yr old

my 11 yr old son who is aspergers and very introverted goes to secondary school in september i am terrified he will be targeted by bullies. there is an asd unit in the school but will that stop him from being attacked? i would like to know if anyone thinks home schooling is a better option or do i let him attend mainstream school? im just worried he will have real problems there. i would appreciate any advice thanks.

  • its reassuring to get advice from someone who has been in my sons shoes, i hadnt realised bullies are a bit nervous of autistic children,but i know what you mean my son would not react to it as another child would.he does get upset by the noise etc but hopefully he will learn to adapt to that as he has done at primary.thanks for your advice.
