Glebelands School is a county-funded and charity-supported secondary school in Cranleigh, Surrey, England.〔(Glebelands School - governmental rankings ) Ofsted〕 It is co-educational and caters for students in the 11-16 age range in that it does not have a sixth form. ==History== The Crane, as considered by historians a possible origin of Cranleigh (which has or had crane reserves at Baynards and Vachery) was chosen in 1956 as the emblem. The land of the school was part of Parsonage Farm, therefore glebeland. The emblem was a crane, alert and vigilant, holding a pebble to splash itself awake should its alertness falter, however the pebble and 'vigilance' initially chosen as the motto, have evolved under Mrs Knight and the Board of Governors at the time (2004-2009) to a more self-analytical motto, reflecting the greater achievement of society at large, and appreciating one's own ideas and successes as much as those as others.〔(History 2004-2009 and comparisons ) Glebelands School. Retrieved 2014-06-20〕 The school from the early 20th century to 1956 was the Secondary Modern Extension of the Cranleigh C. of E. (Primary) School, and before World War II part of this stage of education was, for the last two years of school, optional. Elmbridge Boarding School in Cranleigh operated until it was converted to a retirement village and provided limited classes for the relatively advanced pupils who could afford its fees as did public schools which drew the most able and wealthy. On 4 September 1956 the school opened as the County Secondary (Modern) Mixed School, Cranleigh. In 1958, the addition of children from Bramley School meant that, with 317 pupils, the existing rooms in the original village school and HORSA blocks were inadequate and extra rooms were found in places such as the Village Hall. Two years before much groundwork was led in a communal and county-led effort for new buildings, described in readiness by the first headteacher as: The school began largely secular but saw local clerics speak at assembly every Friday.〔〔(History or school origins ) Glebelands School. Retrieved 2014-06-20〕 The 1950s was a period of marked social change: Dunsfold, Grafham, Alfold, Ellen’s Green and Ewhurst all had schools that contributed pupils, but some would go into more established schools and many children would commence work after typically three years of the present senior school system. The badge was the heraldic ‘crane in its vigilance’, holding a rock which would awaken it by splashing into the water, should it fail in attentiveness. Boys were keener on wearing caps than girls were their berets, or later boaters, but by 1960 they were all almost extinct. The new building opened in 1959 served by good grounds and piped water and with it the current title, Glebelands School. ==Specialist needs of pupils== The school has Speech, Language and Communications Needs ('SCLN') and SEN trained staff to improve education for children who struggle in communication and in an educational setting respectively. SEN children are wherever achievable within the school's financial constraints totally integrated into all aspects of the school community. Reflecting demand in this category (whether among parents or pupils themselves), in 2012, 9.4% of pupils were supported by school action plus or with a statement of SEN, compared with the national average of 8.1%, an increase of 1.1% on the previous year, with a high proportion in year 11 relative to the other years: 13.3% of pupils in 2011-2012's final year were in this category. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glebelands School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
