How to get a place

4 steps, starting with an EHC plan
  1. An EHC plan

    Places in an SEN unit or resourced provision are usually for children with an Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan. If your child doesn’t have one yet, you can ask the council for an assessment yourself.

  2. Visit and ask about the base

    See the school and its specialist base, and ask how children split their time between the base and mainstream classes.

  3. Ask for the school to be named

    Tell the council that looks after the plan (often South Tyneside council) that you want this school and its base, and ask them to consult it.

  4. Named in the plan

    If the school is named in your child’s plan, it must admit your child. Places in the base itself are agreed between the council and the school, so ask how they decide.
