Admissions
Can my child get a place?
The rules, recent outcomes and context that matter when judging your chances.
Places are allocated through the Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) process rather than the standard Trafford coordinated admissions system.
A place at this school is named in a child's EHCP by Trafford Council following an assessment of their needs, rather than through an annual application round. Because places are matched to individual needs rather than allocated by priority order, distance and oversubscription statistics used for mainstream schools are not applicable here.
