Silverhill welcomes children of all abilities, including those with Special Educational Needs (SEN). With the help of the SEN staff we aim to address their needs within the class. However, if more is required, there is provision for specialised support. As an inclusive school, we liaise with outside professionals.

We are delighted to have on our staff, on a consultative basis, Jackie Day, a highly qualified practitioner for children with special needs. She provides inset training for our staff to assist them in the ever-increasing demands within the special needs area. Jackie also monitors children on the school Action Plan Plus on a half termly basis. 

Geraldine Bates also works with our children, who have difficulties with speech and language, as a consultant.She advises staff and sees some children on a 1 - 1 basis.
