About Us - Our Provision
"I would like to say how amazing I think the Year 9 Team are. They have made such a difference to my child, who previously was not enjoying school. They treat all the children as individuals and in an appropriate way for their age and needs. The teaching is of a very high standard . My child has made a massive improvement both educationally and emotionally. Thank you for all your hard work and support at this difficult time."

The North West Specialist Inclusive Learning Centre (SILC) accommodates approximately 260 pupils ranging from 3 to 19 years of age providing education for a diverse range of Special Educational Needs. All pupils will have an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that clearly identifies their individual learning and care needs.
We have 2 specialist school sites:

All our pupils follow a broad and balanced curriulum as prescribed by the National Curriculum which is personalised through our three learning pathways - Sensory, Working Towards Independence and Independent. For further details please see the 'Curriculum' tab above.
