A new specialist school for autistic children and young people with anxiety and other mental health issues is set to open in Brighton.

Brighton and Hove City Council’s Children, Young People and Skills Committee are being asked to approve the plans.

The new school would operate as a satellite of Portslade’s Hill Park School at the former Cedar Centre in Lynchet Close, Hollingdean.
