SEND provision in West Sussex
14 special schools and 34 mainstream schools recording SEN provision. Need types are as the school records them in Get Information About Schools. This is not a judgement about which school suits a child: that is what an EHC needs assessment is for.
Special schools (14) Schools wholly for pupils with special educational needs. Places are arranged through the local authority, normally as part of an EHC plan, not by applying to the school directly.

Specific Learning Difficulty Moderate Learning Difficulty Severe Learning Difficulty Profound and Multiple Learning Difficulty Social, Emotional and Mental Health Speech, Language and Communication Needs Hearing Impairment Visual Impairment Multi-Sensory Impairment Physical Disability Autistic Spectrum Disorder Other Difficulty/Disability All Mainstream schools with SEN provision (34) Mainstream schools that record a SEN unit, resourced provision, or particular needs they cater for, alongside their ordinary classes. Not every school publishes unit places, so a row without them is not a school without provision.
Unit places come from the school census and describe the position when it was taken, not today. Confirm with the local authority before relying on them.
