Admission to Maplewell Hall Special School is normally by way of an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP). The school is one of the five Leicestershire County Area Special Schools. All admissions must satisfy: (a) the child has a Moderate learning difficulty, and (b) this learning difficulty presents the main barrier to learning. The school may admit a child without an EHCP in certain circumstances (e.g., for assessment under Education Act provisions). There are specified maximum numbers and exceptional circumstances under which admissions beyond these numbers may occur (e.g., safeguarding or trauma, or direction by a Tribunal or the Secretary of State). An EHCP naming the school is normally required, and the local authority must name the school in the EHCP unless incompatibility with efficient education is shown. If the school is named, it must admit the child; if not, the Secretary of State may determine otherwise.
