Admission Process at Foxwood Academy
Foxwood Academy accepts students throughout the school year, although most are admitted at the start of the academic year. Before admission, a thorough consultation with the Academy and various professionals ensures that the Academy can meet the needs outlined in the student's Education Health Care Plan (EHCP). After this consultation, it is the Local Authority's responsibility to decide if a place should be offered. Foxwood Academy does not maintain a waiting list and does not select students based on age or location.
Visiting Foxwood Academy Prospective parents are encouraged to visit the Academy to talk with staff, meet current students, and discuss the specific needs of their child. To arrange a visit, please contact the Academy administration team at 0115 9177202. During this call, you will be asked for information about your child's needs, current educational provision, and future aspirations. Additionally, we recommend taking the narrated virtual tour available on our website.
Age and Admission The age at which children are admitted varies according to their individual needs. Admission arrangements are tailored on a case-by-case basis in negotiation with other professionals, the relevant Local Authority, and agreed upon with parents. We believe that a strong partnership with parents is crucial to the success of the education we provide.
Admissions Management All admissions to Foxwood Academy are managed through Nottinghamshire County Council. For further information, contact Nottinghamshire County Council at County Hall on 0115 8041275. If parents wish to appeal a placement decision, they should contact the Local Authority Schools Admissions.
The Academy is funded directly by the Department for Education via the Education and Skills Funding Agency.
