What is the advantage of having a head with a concentration of sensory organ?

The sensory organs developed around the mouth in an attempt to help the creature eat - that being the primary reason for senses. Because all the sensory organs were concentrated around the mouth that was the beginnings of the head. So you see - the concentration of sensory organs was the reason for the head. There was no head to begin with. The head (and brain) developed because that was where all the sensory organs (and mouth) were. As for an advantage. It might be advantageous to have your sensory organs as high as possible. The reason for this is obvious for sight and sound. Smelling however would benefit more if it were located in the feet. Consider dogs and pigs. As soon as they start smelling they put their nose (and the rest of the head as well) to the ground. Feeling is not found concentrated in the head but is omni-localized.
