Hertfordshire County Council Children Services Department are the admissions authority for the school’s day and residential provision.
The current admission process works in the following manner: www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/services/edlearn/admissions/
Children Services/SEN policy is to place pupils in the school able to meet the pupils’ needs, nearest to where they live. Pupils will in the norm, come from the north and the east of the county and from other areas of the county as needs arise. Referrals from ‘out county’ are considered if referred through Hertfordshire County Council SEN procedures.
The school has a well-established admission process, which seeks to confirm the appropriateness of the initial referral. The referral documentation is reviewed and the pupil and carers are subsequently invited to the school for an initial meeting. This meeting will focus on an explanation of the school’s philosophy and approach to the management of behaviour. This will be followed by a second meeting at school, or in the family home, with our Family and Community Liaison Manager, who will gather more specific information about the pupil’s needs, presenting difficulties and background. An admission will be agreed if both the carers and the school believe that the school is best placed to meet the pupil’s needs and importantly there is an acceptance that the pupil has the capacity to choose to change his/her behaviour.
