Questions parents ask
How many mainstream schools are there in Northumberland?
Northumberland has 144 state mainstream schools (119 primary, 13 secondary and 12 all-through or middle). In January 2026, at its primary schools, 17.8% of pupils got SEN support and 4.4% had an EHC plan (England: 15.4% and 4.1%); at its secondary schools, 14.4% of pupils got SEN support and 3.7% had an EHC plan (England: 14.1% and 3.5%).
Which mainstream schools in Northumberland have an SEN unit or resourced provision?
Berwick St Mary's Church of England Primary School, Cambois Primary School, Cramlington Learning Village, Cramlington Northburn Primary School, Newsham Primary School, Red Row Primary School, Seaton Sluice First School and Seaton Valley High School. They are listed with the area’s special schools.
How do I get SEN support at a mainstream school?
Talk to the class teacher and the school’s SENCO (special educational needs co-ordinator). Your child doesn’t need a diagnosis. If they need more help than the school can usually give, you or the school can ask Northumberland council for an EHC needs assessment.
What do the figures mean?
SEN support is help in school without an EHC plan; an EHC plan is a legal plan from the council for children who need more. The figures show how many children a school supports, not how well, so talk to the SENCO and read the school’s SEN information report.
