Admissions Criteria

Day pupils with an Education Health and Care Plan are admitted following a referral from Local Authorities. The majority of our students are admitted between 14-16 years of age with special educational needs as a result of a learning disability combined with difficult or challenging behaviour. A young person does not need specific qualifications to secure a place with us. The Seeds School accepts young people from all backgrounds. Our Admissions Manager, Karen Rolls, will liaise with the referring agent to arrange visits, with transition support and a formal offer following the visit.
