Alderwood School Catchment Area Information
Admission to Alderwood School follows a different process from mainstream schools. Hampshire assesses each child's Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) to determine appropriate placement — catchment area does not apply in the same way as mainstream admissions.
For more information on how Hampshire assesses EHCP placements and which schools are named, contact the council's SEND team directly. The council must publish its Local Offer explaining available provision.
