At Silverwood School, we believe that every pupil deserves the opportunity to develop their skills, interests and aspirations in preparation for a fulfilling future. Our curriculum supports our intent to enable all our learners to flourish and thrive both within the school community but also in the wider community, both as pupils and then into adulthood. This is seen throughout our Values led curriculum and is typified in the wide range of opportunities that are offered to everyone to allow them to experience a personalised approach to learning that prepares them for adult life. This includes an expectation that every pupil will experience opportunities to practice work based and employability skills.

Equal opportunities lie at the heart of all that we do at Silverwood School. We are committed to ensuring that every member of the school community is given the same chance as any other to access the services and support of the school
We have carefully considered and analysed the impact of this policy on equality and the possible implications for pupils with protected characteristics, as part of our commitment to meet the Public Sector Equality Duty (PSED) requirement to have due regard to the need to eliminate discrimination, advance equality of opportunity and foster good relations.
The Provider Access Policy is designed to meet the needs of all pupils, working through pre-formal, semi-formal and formal curricula. It is inclusive of students who function at early/preverbal levels of language and communication, through to those who express themselves verbally and in writing. The policy is designed to be child-centred and to make sure as far as is possible that pupils understand what is happening in their lives, why, and what options are available to them.
