Gabbitas draws on wide experience in the independent education and special needs provision, to publish two annual guide books in association with Kogan Page.

The 'Independent Schools Guide', the flagship title, deals with all aspects of independent education, including school selection and provides detailed reference material on over 2,000 schools. 'Schools for Special Needs' is for those researching special needs provision and covers both practical and legal matters.

The guide books, available directly from Gabbitas, are the ideal starting point when researching school options. Each has an accompanying website www.independentschoolsguide.com  and www.schoolsforspecialneeds.co.uk
