Newingate Admissions

We’re currently more than happy to discuss potential admission directly with parents and carers who are looking to find the right setting for their child or young person.  

Parents and Carers are also advised to talk with the SENDCo at their child’s current place of education.

The SENDCo (along with the parent/carer) can then request for the Local Authority to consult with us regarding the placement process.

For admission, children and young people:

• Will be aged between 11 – 18 years (secondary age, or transitioning to secondary phase)

• Will be referred by their local authority (most likely Kent or Medway)

• Will have an education, health and care plan (or will be under assessment)

• Will have a diagnosis of an autistic spectrum condition

• May have social, emotional, mental health needs as well

• May have specific learning difficulties such as Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and Dyscalculia

• Will benefit from the school’s therapeutic and relational approach to education and learning.

​If you’d like to know more, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Our Admissions team will be happy to discuss you and your child’s needs in more detail. Please contact us to learn more
