Admissions Statement

The Harbour School is a Local Authority School for boys from 5-16 years who have an Education, Health and Care plan (EHCP) for social, emotional and mental health needs. Pupils attend from all over the Cambridgeshire area and sometimes from outside the county.

The Harbour School is situated in rural Cambridgeshire. The school grounds, including the wooded area and pond, are fully utilised through enrichment activities throughout the school day.

For a child to be admitted, the school must be named by a local authority in the child’s education health and care plan (EHCP).

Parents wishing their children to benefit from our provision should ask their local authority to name our school in their child’s EHCP.

A local authority can also refer a child to the school to be assessed for an EHC plan or following a change in the child’s circumstances for his or her needs to be assessed or reassessed. Any assessment should be completed within the 20 weeks set out in the SEND Code.
Children being assessed for an EHCP will be dual registered and return, full time, to their mainstream school if the LA decides not to issue an EHCP.
