If you have the ability, then my primary advice would be to homeschool them. Why? So, you can setup a learning environment that would help your child most.
The best thing to do is to have your child sit at a big desk or table and put one assignment on each corner of the desk (if they have more than 4, then put those some place else until one or more of the others are completed).
When doing this put any paper they need inside the book where they need to start working. Example: If they are working on page 234 of the book. Then put their notebook inside the book at page 234. then close the book - to keep the table as tidy as possible.
Next you will need an egg time or something that be set for a certain number of minutes EASILY. Try 15 minutes and see how your child handles it. If well, then leave it at that time. If not well, then change to 10 minutes.
So, what your child needs to do is work on one subject for those 15 or so minutes when the timer goes off, put the notebook back into the book and put back into the corner. Then get the next book with notebook. Open the book then start the timer again and begin with that subject. You keep doing this until all subjects are done.
Another option is to put a piece of paper in one corner that says "play". Make sure they don't cheat, go to each corner in time and when they get to that piece of paper, let them play for the 15 minutes.
This will keep them from being too focused on one thing for too long.
The problem with sending them to a normal school is that a) they won't have big desks and b) they will have a more difficult time working on different topics.
Good luck.
