Religious Character

This field shows any religious ethos declared by the school. The Secretary of State may also have made an Order designating the school as having a religious character, but this is not so in all cases

Resource Provision

Resourced provisions are where places are reserved at a mainstream school for pupils with a specific type of SEN, taught mainly within mainstream classes, but requiring a base and some specialist facilities around the school. Resourced provisions: receive additional funding from the LA (especially for the purpose of the provision); cater for a specific type or types of SEN (e.g. specific learning difficulties); are usually for pupils with statements of SEN (but could include pupils at School Action Plus).
