Admission Details

Stephenson Academy is a Specialist provision for students whose primary need is Social Emotional and Mental Health. Many of the students have additional language and communication needs, and some additional learning needs.   

All children admitted to the school have an Education, Health and Care Plan. The majority of children are admitted to the academy from the age of 11.

Students are only recommended for special schooling after a formal assessment of their educational needs has been made by members of the educational, psychological and medical services in close co-operation with you, as the child's parents. A parental request for a special school is moderated by the Inclusion Panel, using the Local Authority 'Guidelines for Admission to Special Provision', although the final decision rests with a Senior SEN Manager.

If a place is offered at Stephenson Academy, then parents are asked to complete a few forms for administrative purposes. It greatly helps the process of changing schools if these can be completed promptly.
