Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council awarded a contract to Sycamore Short Stay School and The Regis Academy (The Albion Foundation) for full-time primary preventative placements for children in Dudley at risk of permanent exclusion.

The placements, valued at AUD 185,000, are for children identified through Dudley's Inclusive Pathway who are currently unsuccessful in accessing a mainstream classroom learning environment.

They require an alternative provision with an appropriate curriculum including specific intervention work to build self-regulation, resilience, and emotional health and well-being.

The placements are short term (up to two terms or 25 weeks) and the children remain dual-registered on their home school's register.

The vast majority of children will return to their home school at the end of the placement, while a minority may be placed in a different setting following an EHCP assessment.
