Placement planning

Looking at the student, the family and the possible schools together before building a school list: academics, English, maturity, athletics where relevant, money, and what comes after.

Why it matters

A school search answers "which schools exist?" Placement planning answers "which schools make sense for this child, and what would need to be true first?" That is the difference between collecting names and making a decision you can stand behind.

Nothing published mentions this term yet. As articles, guides and news are tagged with it, they will appear here.

Not sure what this means for your child?

A GESP consultant can explain the term in the context of your family's own plan.
