Students must have an EHCP with a primary need of Communication and Interaction (with or without a diagnosis of autism) and are likely to have had support at primary focussed on self-esteem, social anxiety and managing their environment. Their academic levels may be lower, similar to, or higher than that of their peers however they will be young people that want to learn if given the correct environment. Due to the higher risks involved around working with horses and riding, Lord Gowthorpe’s are unable to admit young people whose behaviours would risk injury to themselves or affect the horses’ welfare. Due to the building lay out, the school is unable to take young people that have physical needs where they are not able to climb a set of stairs to the classroom.
