Admissions
Admission to Snowdon Village is via the Bristol Inclusion Panel (BIP) and through SEN referrals from regional local authorities. Bristol schools refer students to BIP and places can be allocated to a variety of Alternative Learning Provision (ALP) across the city, including Bristol Futures, City School HQ, City School South and City School Kingswood. Admission to the Nest is via the Bristol Inclusion Panel (BIP) for primary schools. We also take direct referrals for looked after children from the Hope School. The admissions process at Engage is completed in partnership between the home school and the team at Engage to ensure the placement is appropriate and meets the needs of the young person. Information is shared and reviewed collaboratively to support a smooth transition and positive start.
Students are also admitted to Snowdon Village through SEN consultation via the local authorities. Colleagues in SEN are encouraged to contact the school if they consider that Snowdon Village is appropriate for a student in their care. We welcome consultations from across the region.
If you think your son/daughter would benefit from attending a Snowdon Village provision, please discuss with your current school who will be able to advise.
