Here are some ideas to help you choose a school:

• Use the school directory to see what schools are available in your area.
• Visit schools to look at the facilities and talk to staff.
• Think about how your child will travel to school – check whether they are eligible for school transport.
• Discuss your child’s needs with the school’s special educational needs and disabilities coordinator (SENDCo).
• Look at the school’s website and read their SEND Information Report, this should explain how they use their funding to support children with SEND.
• Look at the national website Compare School Performance to see schools’ results.
