Question 1

Are you a Special Needs School?

Accepted Answer

No, we are not a special needs school, however we have a certain capacity to support some individuals with special education needs (SEN) students in our school depending on whether we can support those needs. We have a set based annual quota of children with additional needs that we can consider. This number fluctuates depending on the overall number of students in a year group and in the school. Whilst we have a waitlist for SEN students, we will not allow trial days for new SEN students to take place, as we are unable to guarantee when a placement will be available.
