Inclusion Philosophy

Batley Grammar School believes in and encourages inclusion.

We believe that all primary and secondary learners, whatever their needs, should receive the best possible education. Our aim is to enable all our young people to excel in their personal, social and academic achievements.

As an all-through 4 -16 school we, wherever possible, cater for the needs of learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND). Parents/carers of SEND learners who wish to apply for a place for their child at Batley Grammar School are encouraged to meet the SENDCo, the appropriate Head of Key Stage and/or a member of the Senior Leadership Team to establish whether Batley Grammar School is the best school to meet their child’s needs.
