State school refusing to admit

Bibby

Hi all, I'm new on here. Was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience with mainstream Academies who have/are refusing to admit child with ASD into y7, even when it is named in part 4 of a finalised SEN? Many thanks

  • I am guessing this is about one of the new academies not making adequate Special Education Needs provision.

    I just wonder if this is the same phenomenon that occurs in "public" or selective fee-paying schools.

    Because people are paying for their children's education at these schools, parents with children who have special education needs are more likely to pay to send them to a special school, rather than try mainstream education.

    Based on that pattern being manifest, there's no demand in such schools to make more than basic dyslexia provision.

    I suspect some of the new Academies will inhabit the same mindset.
