Special Education Needs
At Tile Hill Wood School and Language College we have a specialist department called 'Student Support'. The core purpose of this department is to provide and co-ordinate the support for all students in the school, whatever their need may be. There is a team of teachers, education assistants, language support assistants and learning mentors. They work both within the base as well as with students and teachers in the classroom setting. Students' needs are identified initially through our links with our feeder primary schools. Once a student arrives in our school they are assessed and their progress monitored closely. We recognise that some students find transition to a new school difficult. We aim to support these students through our Emotional Literacy and Social Skills programmes. Our recent Ofsted inspection praised the high quality of provision and noted especially that staff worked well together in supporting our students. We are able to offer specialist support for students who have specific learning difficulties, as well as specialist teacher assessments for dyslexia as well as a range of other difficulties.
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.
