We are consulting you on a proposal to change the designation of the specialist inclusion base at Stepgates Community School. The specialist inclusion base currently provides targeted support for pupils with Speech Language and Communication needs (SLCN) and the proposal seeks to revise its designation to Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

We will be holding public meeting for families and local communities and any other interested parties to discuss the proposal and this will be an opportunity for interested parties to provide their feedback.

The meeting will take place on 15 October 2026 at 10:00am on Microsoft Teams Platform. For those wishing to attend, please send your email address to schoolorg@surreycc.gov.uk and you will be sent a link to join the meeting

The full proposal is outlined in the supporting document below
