Admissions

Children and young people who are in receipt of an Education, Health and Care Plan may be placed by Norfolk Local Authority (LA) at the UET Compass Academy. The process by which this happens is following a parental, carer or Local Authority request, whereby the UET Compass Academy is consulted as to whether needs can be met and if they have a place to offer in one of their provisions. The UET Compass Academy receives the EHCP and other relevant documents to read and consider. An observation may also take place to ensure suitability. The UET Compass Academy is for those with a high level of Social, Emotional and/ or Mental Health needs. If the Academy responds to indicate that the child/young person could be placed within one of its provisions, the LA will consider this response alongside any other offers of placement it may receive. If the LA agrees that the Academy is suitable it informs the family and UET Compass Academy, then a formal offer is made and the student is placed on an agreed date.
