Stage 1 – Pre admission: After receiving an enquiry, the first stage is to decide whether Mill House School is suitable for the young person by studying EHC Plans, reports, previous assessment data and all other available information. Wherever possible, the prospective pupil, along with parents and carers and any other relevant parties, will be invited to visit to the school in order to meet with the headteacher and EHCP Team. This visit will allow leaders to identify any personal and specific needs and decide whether these can be met. If appropriate, the school will make a placement offer to the referrer.
Stage 2 – Induction: Should the pupil, parent/carer and placing professionals accept a place at Mill House School, an induction meeting will be scheduled. This meeting will focus on agreeing a transition plan into the school in order to increase the placements chance of success. The pupil will complete their transition programme, attending school on either a full-time or part-time basis. Students will complete baseline assessments.
Stage 3 – Post admission:
The school will devise an Individual Education Plan for each pupil. This plan is based on:
- the needs identified within the young persons’ EHCP
- the needs identified during the young person’s baseline assessments
- the overall placement objectives
The Individual Education Plan will address the pupils:
- educational needs and targets
- social, and emotional needs
- behavioural needs
- health needs and health promotion.
An admissions review meeting will take place usually within six weeks. This meeting will be used to agree the pupil’s Individual Education Plan and Behaviour Management Plan, where appropriate.
The school welcomes enquiries and visits from parents.
