Special Education Needs

'Langley is a school where individuals are valued for themselves and where all are expected to give of their best'(Mission Statement) It is a day special school for pupils with Moderate Learning Difficulties and caters for boys and girls aged three to eleven. Currently there are 80 pupils on roll all of whom have a statement of Special Educational Need. Every child has an individual programme drawn up by their class teacher; this is a very specific but manageable document and addresses all areas of school activity, including the National Curriculum and Social and Independence skills. Where appropriate, the school draws on other professionals for help, and can set up integration links with other Special or mainstream schools. The school has developed a well resourced soft play area and sensory room which are very useful in a variety of situations. Close links with parents are very important at Langley and underpin all the school's work. AF Adapted from website with head's permission

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.
