- At the end of each term the placement is reviewed and where necessary a transition plan will be put in place to support re-entry to mainstream or alternative in-person provision.
- At the end of the academic year a students progress is reviewed and a decision is made to either progress to the next level, remain on the same level for another year, or transition to in-person education.
