Admission Arrangements

Admission to Springwell Harrogate is conducted through the NYCC Fair Access Panel (FAP/NYAP)

This is a fortnightly meeting attended by seniour representatives from schools in North Yorkshire. Senior representatives of the Springwell Harrogate attend these meetings to discuss possible admissions.

If the FAP/NYAP awards your child a place at Springwell Harrogate; a meeting will quickly be arranged between your, their mainstream school and ourselves where details of the placement will be discussed.

In this meeting, you will meet a member of senior staff to discuss your child’s needs and how we can work with you to ensure the best possible outcomes for their placement. You will be asked to fill out a small amount of paperwork.

We also request that you give us emergency contact details for yourself and anyone else with parental responsibility.

We will complete a risk assessment (IPRA) for your child, and then a start date will be arranged.

Our academy focuses on ensuring learners are school ready or require a reset after in school challenges.

The school PAN number is: 30
