Specialist Provision
Pupils can only access our specialist provisions through applications made by SEND operations. These applications are then subject to our consultation processes where we will review if it is an appropriate referral and then may meet the pupil and their family before offering a place.
As we are alternative and specialist provisions our admissions are not made through applications directly by parent/carers. Pupils access our provisions through different pathways.
Permanent Exclusion
A decision to permanently exclude a child must be made in line with the DfE statutory guidance on the exclusion of pupils from local-authority-maintained schools, academies and pupil referral units. If you have any concerns or questions then please discuss this with the LA Education Access Specialist Team. Permanent exclusion should always be the very last resort and therefore to talk this over first is always advisable.
