WHSS Prospectus May 2024 - Flipbook - Page 8
School and Home
Fees
Transport
All students benefit from a
secure and supportive home
base. We encourage our
students to have as much
contact with home as their
personal circumstances and
needs allow. Most students go
home at weekends, and all
students go home in holiday
periods. With this in mind, we
always take travelling distance
into
account
when
considering a referral.
The referring Local Authority
is responsible for the paying
of all school fees as defined
by the National Contract for
placement of students.
All provision described within
this prospectus, including our
therapeutic
interventions
and residential camps, are
covered by the payment of
the initial fees.
The Local Authority makes
transport arrangements for
students attending the school.
We also have school vehicles,
which provide transport for
students; these are mainly
used for outings and activities
in line with the Care and
Education of our students.
Upon the offer of a place, we
ask parents/carers to sign our
Admissions Agreement; this
contains information about
our key policies, procedures
and practices.
School dress and
equipment
We provide all residential,
educational and sporting
clothing and all necessary
equipment,
including
toiletries.
