Admissions

Our commissioners are local schools and local authorities. We recognise that barriers to learning are often developed over a long period of time and may take some time to dissolve. 

Intuition School operates Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with commissioners and ensures that commissioners understand and adopt our inclusive ethos and values. 

The broad criteria for admission are as follows: 

• ∙ Students aged 11– 16 
• ∙ Students without a school place 
• ∙ Students with persistent attendance problems 
• ∙ Students with a range of additional needs such as social and emotional needs that create barriers to their learning 
• ∙ Students who have an EHCP

• ∙ IN-tuition School invites the young person for an interview and initial assessment with parents. Other significant adults may be invited too.
