special needs school in costa blanca north

[nikkiwinter]

My sister-in-law is thinking of moving to the area and needs to find a school for her daughter who has autism.
She currently goes to a special needs school in the UK but I cant seem to find one over here.
I have found an autism society but it's all Spanish and she doesnt speak any Spanish at the moment.
Does anyone know of any schools in the area that cater for special needs with English speaking staff?

Thanks

Hi All. I stumbled across your postings re. schools/services for children with autism in southern Spain and thought I'd send this through to add to the mix. I realise that you are looking for resources in the Costa Blanca and the contact below is for the Costa del Sol/Málaga, but Sr. Nieto seemed helpful with my wife and I and may be well placed to advise on similar help in your area. Best of luck, I completely understand what a big issue this is! Jez.

It seems unfortunately that there is not a great deal of special needs schools over here .... only one I heard of was in Denia. Seems special needs are generally dealt with in the normal system here
