School Admissions – Special Educational Needs (SEND)
We are committed to meeting the needs of all children including those with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities. We would ask parents to discuss the identified needs with the school prior to starting so that appropriate intervention and support can be planned and implemented. Advice from the LA or other agencies may be requested to ensure any school can meet any needs appropriately.
Further information, on admissions, can be found in the school Admissions Policy, the Special Educational Needs (SEND) Policy and Equality Policy that can be found in the School Policies section of our website.
Applying for a school place if your child has an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP)
Children and young people with an Education, Health and Care Plan follow a different admission and transfer process for a new school. Please continue to complete Durham County Council’s parental preference form, as part of the admission process to a new school. You continue to have a right to request a particular school and this will be considered alongside the information that we have about your child’s special educational needs. The information would have been provided as part of the Education, Health and Care assessment or following the review meeting.
If you would like to discuss anything further please contact the school to arrange an appointment, with our SENCo Mrs C. Hill.
