CRITERIA AND PROCESS FOR ADMISSIONS

Exhall Grange is a 4-19 maintained school which provides a nurturing environment and meets the needs of children and young people with:

  • Social, Communication and Interaction difficulties including Autism
  • Social, Emotional and Mental Health needs which mean they are highly anxious and require a calm, predictable and nurturing environment in order to be able to access school.
  • Physical difficulties
  • Sensory impairment
  • Complex medical needs

Many of our children and young people are physically or emotionally extremely vulnerable or have life-limiting conditions. Some have a combination of these. All our children and young people are able to access the National Curriculum.

All of our children have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).

Exhall Grange offers the National Curriculum, which is differentiated according to need. Access to the curriculum is provided in classes with usually no more than 12 pupils and often with a Teaching Assistant to support.

The vulnerable nature of the pupils on roll means that it is not a suitable placement for children and young people whose behaviour is challenging and unpredictable.

Although Exhall Grange is a Warwickshire Local Authority Specialist School, we work with other Local Authorities to admit pupils.

Admissions Process

All admissions to Exhall Grange follow the same route as for every other Special School in the County.

Each referral will be considered by a Local Authority/School Admission Panel. The referral will then be sent to Exhall Grange and within the statutory time frame Exhall Grange will decide if needs can be met. The Local Authority will be informed of the decision and Parents/Carers informed by their Local Authority.

The school admits pupils throughout the year but transfer in Year 6/7 will usually be in September at the start of Year 7.

Consideration will always be given to numbers in and the profile of each year group.

Exhall Grange cannot discuss individual cases.
