Tier 4 referral Criteria

Before making a referral to Tier 4, please ensure that your setting has followed the tiered system of support and that the pupil meets the eligibility criteria. It is essential that the ‘Graduated Response’ has been fully implemented, as this will be reviewed when the pupil is considered for support at Panel.

• Pupils must have previously accessed Tier 3 support from Chessbrook ESC.
• Schools must have completed at least two ADPR cycles following the end of Chessbrook support, with clear evidence of both implementation and impact.
