What the school says...

At Brooke School

'We believe, we can do it!'

Brooke School is a broad spectrum special school for children from the ages of 2-19. We cater for a range of individual needs such as autism, physical, sensory, emotional and communication needs.

Our core focus is to ensure that the time of our children spend in school is spectacular. We do this by ensuring a detailed and highly bespoke provision for all our children that supports them to overcome barriers to learning and inspires them to learn new skills rapidly. ...Read more

Please note: Independent schools frequently offer IGCSEs or other qualifications alongside or as an alternative to GCSE. The DfE does not record performance data for these exams so independent school GCSE data is frequently misleading; parents should check the results with the schools.

Special Education Needs

Brooke school is a community special school for children from two to 19 years who have a range of special educational needs including severe, moderate or complex learning difficulties. All pupils have a statement of special educational needs or EHC Plan. At Brooke we believe that a child's time at school should be spectacular and memorable. We believe in making every single moment count. For Brooke it is about helping children to achieve a better life today, not just for when they are older, or by the time they leave school. At Brooke we aim to ensure that our children have 'bags of confidence and self belief' so they can face the challenges that life brings and overcome the barriers that could prevent a wonderful life. By providing the child with a wide, varied and exciting education we empower them to be confident. School should be about narrowing the gap between education and the real world, and that is what Brooke does. At Brooke School "We believe, we can do it!"

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.
