Admissions

Access to LYLA is via one of our partner schools in Luton. Although parents can refer their children it is important that we have a working relationship with the respective schools.  Parents must inform the school of their intention to refer their child.

We subsequently expect parents to attend monthly meetings, assist with fundraising,
act as volunteers and help and inform the
work of the academy.
