Conquest School will always put the child’s needs at the centre of every decision it makes regarding suitable placements for pupils. We will follow our admissions policy to ensure that the process is adhered to consistently and fairly. We will work in collaboration with parents and local authorities during the process.

Conquest School will proceed with admissions should a child meet the following aspects:

• Pupils will be aged between 7 (Year 3) and 19 (Year 14).
• Pupils will have an Education, Health and Care plan (EHCP) and will predominately have a primary diagnosis of Social Emotional Mental Health (SEMH) needs.

Conquest School will consider a range of other special educational needs such as, but not limited to:

• Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC)
• ADHD and sensory processing differences
• Speech, language, and communication needs
• Social, emotional, and mental health (SEMH) challenges
• Emotional Based School Avoidance (EBSA)
• Moderate learning difficulties
• Other neurodiverse profiles

In these circumstances, special consideration will be given to whether or not the school can meet the needs as set out in the pupil’s EHCP. In addition to this, all pupils will be able to access the national curriculum at various levels.

In all circumstances, Conquest School will complete a comprehensive assessment of need, outlined below to ensure they can meet the child’s special educational needs in full.

Please contact your local authority if you would like to pursue your interest in Conquest School. They will be able to offer you guidance on whether they feel we are the best provision to meet your child’s needs.
