We're planning on moving to the Philippines later this year. My wife is a Filipina but we've been living in the UK and the US for 12 years altogether. We have a 10 year old son who is high functioning, academically excellent, but behaviorally poor. He currently has a 1:1 aide and is in a special ed class in a normal school (an hour or two a day mainstreaming). 95% of the time he is perfectly normal. The aide is there for the 5% of the time when something really silly and simple sends him into a downward spiral.
In the Philippines I doubt he could go to a normal public school so we'll probably end up paying for private education. However, I would like him to go to at least a fairly normal private school if we can. I don't expect the PH government to help in this respect. Has anyone ever dealt with this situation here? Paid for an aide who would be in the classroom with him? Or special schools?
I don't really want home schooling (if that is even an option) as I will be working at home. But if needs be...
We're aiming for Negros, either Dumaguete or Bacolod, but Cebu might be an option.
Thanks.
