Mainstream schools with Additionally Resourced Provision
To assist children and young people with SEND to receive a mainstream education some schools have an Additionally Resourced Provision (ARP) and specialise in certain SEND needs.
For Central Bedfordshire these include:
- Speech, language and communication needs
- Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
- Social, Emotional & Mental Health (SEMH)
- Hearing Impairment
Please note, for a child to be placed within an ARP, a consultation with the school needs to be completed by the allocated SEND Officer. Parent/carer’s cannot apply directly to the school.
