  • Where an EHCNA results in a finalised EHCP, the EHCP will name the school the pupil will attend for the duration of Year 10 and Year 11.  The EHCP will remain subject to the annual review processes in accordance with paragraphs 9.166 – 9.176 SEND Code of Practice: 0 to 25 Years (2015).
  • Where an EHCNA results in a finalised EHCP and it is the parental preference that their child attends a mainstream school, and that the EHCP names Monkseaton High School, the EHCP will be issued for that school, unless there is sufficient evidence, in line with Section 33(3) Children and Families Act 2014, that the pupil’s attendance would be incompatible with the efficient education of others or efficient use of resources at Monkseaton High School.     In those circumstances, the pupil would remain on roll at Monkseaton High School whilst the Authority works with parents /carers to identify and name the mainstream school of their choice. 
  • Where an EHCNA results in a finalised EHCP and it is the parental preference that their child attends a school other than Monkseaton High School, the Authority would meet its statutory requirements as set out in paragraphs 9.78 – 9.987 SEND Code of Practice: 0 to 25 Years (2015).  During that period and until an EHCP named an alternative school, the pupil would remain on roll at Monkseaton High School.
