Admissions

Please be informed that the placement procedure at Manor Abbey Special Free School is subject to the mandatory consultation process. Therefore, all placement requests must be processed through Stoke’s SENMAS team, who will reach out to the school to discuss potential placements. We will be hosting engagement events where families of prospective pupils can gather more information about the school, its offerings, and its position in Stoke’s SEND provision. If you have any inquiries, please feel free to contact SENMAS by sending an email to senmas@stoke.gov.uk.

To ensure that placements at Manor Abbey align with the needs outlined in each student’s EHCP, the school has an internal admissions process that involves a discussion between parents, pupils, and the senior leadership team.

This dialogue allows for an effective assessment of the suitability of a placement at Manor Abbey and ensures that we can fully meet the stated needs of each EHCP. We anticipate that this process will commence in Autumn 2023.
