Admissions Process

The Collett School is a Special Educational Needs School for children with Learning Disabilities.  The Collett School is not its own admissions authority - only children with an Education Health Care Plan (EHCP) are placed here by Hertfordshire Local Authority Special Needs (SN) Team.  Our children are aged 4-16 and have complex needs including Moderate Learning Disabilities, Speech and Language Communication Disorders and Autism.  Entry to the school can be at any age and pupils join our school from neighbouring counties.
