SENDIA Inclusion Award

On Friday 14th March 2025, Bradfields Academy was assessed for the SEND Inclusion Award by SENDIA.

Meeting the needs of every SEND pupil is at the heart of what the school does and is achieved through clarity of leadership at every level throughout the school…

This assessment consisted of the verifier touring the academy, as well as speaking to Parents/Carers, students and staff, to see how Bradfields Academy has supported them and the students in improving the outcomes for pupils with SEND.

The whole curriculum and each individual piece of learning is highly personalised to meet the needs, talents and challenges of each student and there is a strong focus on developing confidence and promoting talent across the whole school.

We are extremely proud to announce that we have been awarded the SENDIA Inclusion Award, recognising the work we do as an academy to improve the students with SEND.
 
As part of the assessment, we received some wonderful feedback, some of which you have read throughout this article.

The well-resourced and cohesive pastoral team provide rapid access to support for students, parents and staff when facing challenges or barriers that might otherwise impact learning, engagement, attendance or enjoyment.

…pupils feel emotionally and physically safe at the school, feel recognised and valued and enjoy the wide range of learning opportunities that the school provides that are tailored to their need.

There is a clear and visible focus on overcoming barriers to learning throughout the school in every classroom and workshop and articulated by every member of staff you speak to. Nowhere was this more clearly demonstrated than in the design workshop where practical tool adaptations to meet the needs and challengers presented by each child were visible everywhere.
