Questions parents ask

How many mainstream schools are there in West Northamptonshire?

West Northamptonshire has 154 state mainstream schools (135 primary, 15 secondary and 4 all-through or middle). In January 2026, at its primary schools, 12.4% of pupils got SEN support and 4.6% had an EHC plan (England: 15.4% and 4.1%); at its secondary schools, 14% of pupils got SEN support and 2.6% had an EHC plan (England: 14.1% and 3.5%).

Which mainstream schools in West Northamptonshire have an SEN unit or resourced provision?

Blackthorn Primary School, Boddington Church of England Primary Academy, Caroline Chisholm School, Castle Academy, East Hunsbury Primary School, Hardingstone Academy, Headlands Primary School, Hunsbury Park Primary School, Kings Sutton Primary Academy, Kingsthorpe Grove Primary School, Malcolm Arnold Academy and Moulton School and Science College, and 4 more. 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 West Northamptonshire 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.
