Admissions

At Intuition School we offer two possible routes to gain a placement in our setting:

On Roll School Placements

For on roll school placements we follow the consultation process through our neighbouring Local Authorities. To gain an on roll school placement, students must have an EHCP, please see our admissions policy.

In order to access a place on roll at Intuition School, the Local Authority must consult us on the email address below:

[email protected]

We will then process the consultation and identify if we can meet the young person's needs.

Alternative Provision Placements

We also offer Alternative Provision placements for a small number of students. Local schools or Authorities can refer to us directly whether the student has an EHCP or not. Referral forms are available by emailing our main school office ([email protected]). We operate Service Level Agreements (SLAs) with service users which ensures that all parties understand and adopt our inclusive ethos and values. 

Intuition School gathers additional information from school/family/ services to build a fuller picture of the young person's needs. We invite the young person for an interview and initial assessment with parents. Other significant adults may be invited too. A start date is agreed, usually within 5 days of the interview. Each student receives an initial assessment to identify holistic needs, this also informs the date and exit strategy. 

If you have any questions regarding this service, please contact us on 01782 315758 or email the address above.

The broad area of need we can accomodate are as follows: 

• Students aged 11– 16 years old (years 7-11)
• Students who may have persistent attendance problems 
• Students experiencing anxiety or distress in their mainstream school environment
• Students who may show internal signs of dysregulation and become disengaged from school life.
• Students with a range of additional needs such as social and emotional needs that create barriers to their learning
• Students who may have sensory needs in relation to the school environment
• Students who may need additional support around their mental health and wellbeing
• For on roll places, students must have an EHCP. 
• For Alternative Provision Places, students do not need to have an EHCP
