ASC Unit Admissions

Admissions to the ASC Unit are dealt with differently to the normal application process.  Children can only be admitted to the unit when a diagnosis of ASC is included in their Education & Health Care Plan. 

A request for a place is made through the annual review process, via the child’s SEN casework manager and a decision is made by the SEN review panel, based on the child’s needs. 

Visits for prospective parents and carers take place on specific dates once a term and only by prior arrangement, after the completion of a visit form, which can be obtained from the school office.
