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

The aim of Hensall school is to provide all children with the opportunity to reach their full potential. All children have equal access to all areas of the curriculum and their contributions are of equal value. There is a whole school approach to the identification, assessment, provision and review of children with SEN. The school works in partnership with parents to enable them to contribute to the education of their children. Pupils with SEN are mostly taught by their class teacher. There may be some sessions where they work individually or in small groups with a Teaching assistant, to address their specific targets. Where possible these sessions are timetabled to focus on the same curriculum area as being covered by the rest of the class. Through planning and teaching all staff endeavour to provide all children with suitable learning challenges, meet the pupils' diverse needs; minimise barriers to learning. Hensall school uses a graduated response to the early identification, assessment and provision of SEN, which is line with the Code of Practice.

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.
