What type of school did you attend ie; mainstream, support unit or special school? AND looking back, did you feel it was the correct setting for you? Im having to make a massive decision regarding 12yr old daughters education after the summer and Im eager to hear how it has affected you all. Thanx in advance :)  x

  • I went to about 10 schools, wasnt happy in any of them but I got good exam results and eventually an MSc.

    Dont think any school would have been right for me, things might be better now but I doubt it.

    I think I would have done badly in a special school, retarded people annoy me and I guess the acedemic standards arent great.

    At least in a good mainstream school there should be good quality teaching and opportunities for learning, a support unit would help.

    Dont know your needs and abilities but I would give academic excellence and facilities a priority.
