Outreach Service to Schools

"The Government recognises and values the important role special schools play in providing for pupils with special educational needs. All Special Schools must be outward looking Centres of Excellence working with their mainstream partners"

Quote taken from DfES publication on "Inclusive Schooling"

Moor House School is fully committed to this policy. We have worked successfully with local mainstream schools and with the Speech and Language Therapy service from the local Primary Care Trust.
We can provide an outreach service to schools.

The services that the Assessment Centre provides are:

• A full pre-admission assessment with a view to a placement at Moor House School
• A full assessment in order to recommend an appropriate educational provision for your child
• A specialist speech and language therapy assessment with opportunities to be observed in class
• A specialist half-day Speech and Language assessment
• A specialist half-day Occupational Therapy Assessment
• Outreach

Details of these services can be found under the drop down menu of 'Assessment Centre'.
