Statutory notice to open a specialist centre at Worplesdon Primary School

Overview

Surrey County Council in liaison with Worplesdon Primary School and Freemantles School, is proposing to open a specialist Special Education Needs and Disability (SEND) centre for pupils with Communication and Interaction Needs (COIN).

It is proposed that Freemantles School and Worplesdon Primary School work in partnership to host a specialist Special Education Needs and Disability (SEND) centre for 21 pupils on the site at Worplesdon Primary School. The staff would benefit from supervision and training as employees of Freemantles School but would be based in the centre at Worplesdon Primary School. All pupils admitted to the centre would have an EHCP specifying the centre as an appropriate placement to meet their individual needs. It is anticipated that the centre would be organised with 3 places per year group. A bespoke building would be provided for the specialist centre and located within the school grounds.

Surrey County Council, Worplesdon Primary School and Freemantles School would like to seek your views on this proposal.  The statutory notice will be published 23rd September 2019 for representations.
