Special schools provide a unique and distinctive educational environment to meet the needs of the pupils in their community. Undertaking standard tests may not be appropriate and we do not show performance data for special schools.

St Francis is a larger-than-average special school which caters for pupils with a range of often complex physical, learning and medical needs. A growing proportion have autistic spectrum disorders and/or profound and multiple learning difficulties. Under local authority reorganisation proposals the school will cater for an increased proportion of these pupils from September 2011 and its numbers will gradually increase to approximately 120 pupils. The proportion of pupils known to be eligible for free school meals is high. Almost all pupils are from a White British heritage. The school has boarding provision for up to eighteen students at a time. This provision is used to allow all Key Stage 4 and post-16 students to have access to a part-time residential experience should they and their parents and carers wish it and is occasionally used for younger pupils. The school has specialist school status (physical and sensory) and provides outreach support to mainstream and other special schools linked to this. It has a comm unity nursing team and a range of therapists based in its accommodation. It has recently opened a drama studio and Enterprise House, which has accommodation and resources to support both community and school learning such as a cafe, gardening, information and communication technology (ICT) and hairdressing facilities. The school holds numerous awards.

2015 GCSE RESULTSImportant information for parents
Due to number of reforms to GSCE reporting introduced by the government in 2014, such as the exclusion of iGCSE examination results, the official school performance data may not accurately report a school’s full results. For more information, please see About and refer to the section, ‘Why does a school show 0% on its GSCE data dial? In many affected cases, the Average Point Score will also display LOW SCORE as points for iGCSEs and resits are not included.
Schools can upload their full GCSE results by registering for a School Noticeboard. All school results data will be verified.
