Admissions
Visiting Furze down school
Thank you for your interest in Furze Down School.
Unfortunately, due to the number of enquiries and requests for visits we receive we are unable to offer individual visits. Visits will usually only take place once a consultation for a place has been received. Our aim is to minimise the visits to classrooms as this is disruptive to our current pupils.
Please complete the questions on the form below. We will then contact you to share information and answer your questions. There is an additional box at the end for any other information you wish to share with us at this time regarding your interest and your reason for requesting a visit.
The admitting authority for special schools is Buckinghamshire Local Authority and requests for placement at Furze Down School will be considered by the local authority’s provision panel. If the panel considers that the child meets the criteria for a place, consultation will take place with the nearest appropriate provision to the home address that has an available place.
