Transition

On receiving a request for admission from the local education authority, the school considers the documentation carefully to ensure we can best meet the needs of the pupil.

Pupils may be admitted into any year group provided that there is a place available.

There are 3 set transition days in the Summer Term for all pupils due to join us at the start of the new academic year (i.e. in September), to ensure that the children become familiar with their new environment. We also make transition books for all of our new pupils.

Once a place has been offered, a period of transition and possible part time placement is arranged in line with the individual child’s circumstances and needs.

Transition is an opportunity for the school to work closely with parents and other professionals to further assess the child and decide in which class the child’s needs would best be met.
