Admissions

Abbey Manor College is primarily a provision for young people who experience difficulties in managing in mainstream education, for a diverse range of reasons.
To this end, the majority of students have been permanently excluded, alongside students attending for short-term placements, usually between 6 – 12 weeks. This type of placement is for young people who are at high risk of permanent exclusion from their school. During the placement, their needs will be assessed and support given which will allow for successful reintegration.

Students, particularly those in KS4, may attend for longer term intervention placements. This allows their needs to be assessed, and support given to ensure that they achieve the qualifications needed for successful transition to Further Education.

Our aim is to:

• Give students a second chance at success both in and beyond their statutory education
• Raise the attainment of students excluded, or on the verge of permanent exclusion
• Provide support for school staff
• Develop inclusive approaches
• Involve and support parents and carers
• Promote the active involvement of other agencies

This document below is our Admissions policy, and will act as a guide for schools, Alternative Provisions and Local Authorities in the process of making the most effective use of this resource.

As with all maintained schools, the Local Authority is the admissions authority for Abbey Manor College. Further information about the admissions and referral process can also be obtained from the Admissions Team at the Local Authority.
