How can my child attend Hilltop School

All admissions to Hilltop School come through Gateshead Council, Special Educational Needs and Disability Team and not directly through the school.

For more information, please contact them at the Civic Centre on, 0191 433 3575.

As a specialist school for children with Moderate Learning Difficulties, including Autism Spectrum Disorder all pupils who attend Hilltop will have an EHCP.

After relevant paperwork has been received by our school, school leaders including the SENCo will discuss the request for a place at Hilltop  School.  If Hilltop feel that they can meet need, the child and their parents will be invited to School to meet staff and see the facilities available. A start date would then be arranged.

If you are unhappy with the decision about the education part of your EHCP plan you can find out more information using the following link
