Special Education Needs
Moss Park Junior School aims to enable pupils with additional educational needs to participate in all areas of school life to realise their potential by working together to remove barriers and improving provision. We have an effective policy which aims to ensure that children's needs are identified early. These needs may be associated with learning, or may be physical, emotional or behavioural in nature. We believe working with parents and carers to be an integral and essential element of additional educational needs provision. A senior teacher has responsibility for SEN and Inclusion. We have a named Governor for SEN. The needs of the children identified as requiring support are largely met within the usual classroom setting, with assessment and special provision being made available by the Local Authority. We liaise very closely with all our support agencies and strive constantly to keep our families informed. Our pupils with Individual Education Plans are fully involved in setting and assessing their targets and progress towards reaching them.
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.
