About residential schools
Residential schools are boarding schools that provide both education and care for students with complex needs, who may require more focused support than what is available in a standard home or school setting.
These schools offer:
- a tailored curriculum
- specialist staff
- integrated services to help vulnerable children reach their full potential
You can tell us which school you want your child to go to when it's time to:
- make the draft Education, Health and Care (EHC) plan
- review the EHC plan
