Special Education Needs
Moselle is a co-educational day special school for up to 128 pupils/students with learning difficulties, including those with autistic spectrum disorders. We aim to: maintain a happy, friendly, caring and welcoming school that will provide for pupils’ needs in a sensitive way; provide a broad and balanced curriculum to ensure academic, social, physical and aesthetic development whilst meeting National Curriculum requirements; foster a positive self-image in pupils’, building self-confidence through praise and encouragement; encourage a positive attitude to life and learning, enabling each pupil to achieve their full potential; promote an ethos of cooperation, with governors, staff, parents, carers and pupils working together; and develop links with the wider community, exploring inclusion wherever possible. We prepare students for leaving and participation in society by teaching the appropriate social, independence and academic skills and ensure that all students gain access to nationally-accredited courses.

Interpreting catchment maps
The maps show in colour where the pupils at a school came from*. Red = most pupils to Blue = fewest.
Where the map is not coloured we have no record in the previous three years of any pupils being admitted from that location based on the options chosen.
For help and explanation of our catchment maps see: Catchment maps explained
Further reading
If there are more applicants to a school than it has places for, who gets in is determined by which applicants best fulfil the admissions criteria.
Admissions criteria are often complicated, and may change from year to year. The best source of information is usually the relevant local authority website, but once you have set your sights on a school it is a good idea to ask them how they see things panning out for the year that you are interested in.
Many schools admit children based on distance from the school or a fixed catchment area. For such schools, the cut-off distance will vary from year to year, especially if the school give priority to siblings, and the pattern will be of a central core with outliers (who will mostly be siblings). Schools that admit on the basis of academic or religious selection will have a much more scattered pattern.
*The coloured areas outlined in black are Census Output Areas. These are made up of a group of neighbouring postcodes, which accounts for their odd shapes. These provide an indication, but not a precise map, of the school’s catchment: always refer to local authority and school websites for precise information.
The 'hotter' the colour the more children have been admitted.
