How to get a place

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

    Places at schools like this usually come through 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 questions

    See whether the school feels right and whether it can meet your child’s needs. Our list of questions below can help.

  3. Ask for the school to be named

    Tell the council that looks after the plan (often Denbighshire council) that this is the school you want, 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. Free home-to-school transport is often part of the arrangement.
