Admission of pupils with an EHCP

If your child has an EHCP, admission must be determined by the Local Authority SEND team. 

If your child is in Year 6, this process will be instigated by their transition annual review held by their current school/provision. 

If your child is not at the normal point of transition then, usually, this process will be instigated via an emergency annual review held by your child's current/previous school or provision.  

If the SEND panel feels that a place at Norham High School could be appropriate then the SEND team will consult with the school regarding our ability to meet your child's needs and protect the efficient education of other pupils. 

If a place at Norham High School is confirmed then we will be named on a final version of your child's EHCP and admission will be arranged immediately. 

We will contact you to discuss and implement support arrangements prior to admission to ensure that your child has the best possible start at Norham High School. 

Please refer to the SEND Policy for further information.
