Admissions Criteria

Pennine Camphill Community offers education and training for day students and residential students who are able to socially interact and participate in family-style households in a community setting.

We provide opportunities for young people with a range of developmental difficulties, learning disabilities, syndromes and conditions, including those with Down's Syndrome, Fragile X and Autistic Spectrum Disorder. Students must be able to access a structured timetable which includes accredited work at Entry Levels 1–3 and full Level 1 of the Foundation Learning Tier.

We cannot accept those whose behaviour may constitute a risk to themselves or to other members of the community, or those who have a severe medical condition which would prevent them from following an appropriate educational programme.
