Welcome to Hallmoor School online. Hallmoor is a maintained special school for 240 pupils aged between 5 and 19 years with moderate learning difficulties and increasingly, additional difficulties such as sensory impairments and speech and language difficulties.

Hello and Welcome to Hallmoor School’s website. I’m Sue Charvis, the Headteacher. Please enjoy your virtual look around our school, through our revamped website. We are very proud of our school, it’s young people and their achievements. What you won’t be able to experience today on your computer is the very calm and positive atmosphere that all visitors comment on! If you need to visit, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

The Office for Standards in Education (Ofsted) was set up on 1 September 1992. Ofsted is a non-ministerial government department whose main aim is to help improve the quality and standards of education and childcare through independent inspection and regulation, and provide advice to the Secretary of State.

An Ofsted inspectors report for Hallmoor School can be downloaded here (requires Adobe Acrobat download here) The inspectors report concluded the following:

Hallmoor is a very effective and improving school with many strengths which strongly outweigh its few shortcomings.

The quality of teaching which was satisfactory overall at the time of the last inspection has improved significantly so that it is now good overall.

The school looks after its pupils very well, their health, safety and welfare are very well promoted.

Pupils are proud of their school, enjoy coming, work hard and concentrate well. They generally behave well in classrooms and when moving about the building. Playground behaviour is civilised and disciplined.
