ADMISSIONS
We’re more than happy to take referrals directly from parents and carers as well as from the Local Authority.
Parents and Carers are advised to talk first with the SENDCo at their child’s current place of education. The SENDCo (along with the parent/carer) can then refer to the Local Authority admission placement process where decisions for referral will be made.
For admission pupils:
- Will be aged between 11 – 16 years
- Will be referred by the relevant local authority
- Will most likely have a statement of special educational need or education and health care plan (or will be under assessment)
- May have social, emotional, mental health, or behavioural difficulties
- May have autistic spectrum conditions
- May have specific learning difficulties such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia
- Will benefit from the schools nurturing and therapeutic input as well as smaller class sizes.
If you’d like to make a referral or you simply want to know more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
