WHO CAN APPLY?
We accept applications for children aged 5 to 17 with a diagnosis of a moderate general learning disability with a report from a psychologist specifically recommending a special school placement and a letter from the NCSE to confirm this is acceptable.

IMPORTANT TO NOTE
We expect to have 8 places in the school for September 2026.
​We accept Applications only during October and November to start in the September of the next school year.

 Unlike at other special schools or special classes in the city, the respite services for any pupils enrolled at St Joseph's is provided through Ability West and not the local CDNT. This may result in a change of your current respite provision and is worth considering carefully.

Application forms available by email: [email protected]
​Application process is laid out in our policy and notice below.
