Pupils in Mainstream Schools
We try to meet the needs of all children at a mainstream school if we can. Support for Learning Assistants, an Additional Support for Learning Co-ordinator and Support for Leaning Teaching are available in all of our schools. This means that most children will have the support they need to be educated alongside their classmates.
Pupils in Specialist Facilities
Sometimes children have specific needs which can be better met at a school or unit which has specialist staff or equipment available to meet those needs. Places in these specialist facilities are limited. Placements are prioritised at the Placement Change Panel (PCP).
Guidance about our facilities and referring to the PCP will be posted here shortly.
If you would like to discuss your child’s additional support needs, please contact the Additional Support for Learning Co-ordinator at your child’s school.
