Key Stage 2/3

Alderwood caters for the needs of young people up to the age of 8-13 years.  This will generally be a part-time provision with some of the time being spent at the unit and some at the 'home' school.  Staff from Alderwood will work on an outreach basis to support the re-integration of their young people back into mainstream education.

Admissions information

Young people are referred to a Pupil Referral Unit by people such as Educational Psychologists or Educational Welfare Officers.  The Area Admissions Panel will decide if this provision is appropriate for a young person.  The Pupil Referral Unit will then prioritise placement through their own Admissions Panel held each term.
