How a place here works
There's no catchment area or application round for a school like this. Places come through an EHC plan: you ask Blackburn with Darwen to consult the school, and if it's named in Section I of the plan, the school is expected to admit your child. Home-to-school transport is often free once a school is named. Your local SENDIASS can help you make the case, free.
