Sketchley Horizon Assessment and admissions process

Sketchley HorizonThe purpose of the assessment is to determine the needs of an individual and whether these can be met by Sketchley Horizon School.

The initial assessment includes:

  • Education and performance levels
  • Communication assessment
  • Self-help/independent skills assessment

The first full individual education plan (IEP) is based on this initial assessment and includes a detailed programme designed to enable each individual pupil to work towards specific attainable goals.

To begin the assessment process we request:

  • Referral papers and a history of the child's schooling
  • No reported adverse medical conditions or factors
  • Appropriate family commitment to supporting and maintaining programmes at home

Sketchley Horizon boy microscopeSketchley Horizon School provides emergency education placements for children excluded from other schools. This provision is dependent on the number of children on the school roll at the time of need. Sketchley Horizon School believes that all children with special educational needs, whose parents or local authority wish it, should have a right to be considered as appropriate for assessment for admission. Pupils will be assessed against the admission criteria.

Sketchley Horizon School does not discriminate and considers referrals from all cultural, ethnic and religious backgrounds.
