Welcome

Broadwalk Green is a Key Stage 3 Pupil Referral Unit with capacity for 55 pupils. All pupils have been permanently excluded from mainstream school or are at risk of such.

Pupils starting their journey at Broadwalk Green will first attend our Salford Assessment Provision where they will conduct baseline assessments in core curriculum (English, Maths and Science) as well as Computing, Food Technology and Art. This enables us to correctly gauge the ability of individual pupils and thereby set work accordingly as well as any interventions that may be required.

If necessary and appropriate, pupils at the SAP will also undergo a range of screening assessments e.g. dyslexia, dyscalculia so that we can offer the best holistic support and an inclusive learning environment to all pupils.

From these assessments, and time spent at the provision, we can offer a number of next-steps that are most appropriate to the needs of the pupil. These will be discussed with parents/carers as an overall profile is developed over this period.

Aims

The aim of the PRU is to deliver a provision that enables the pupils to make good or better progress and to improve their life chances. There is a focus on re-integration whenever appropriate and the In Year Fair Access Panel (IYFAP) which comprises of all secondary mainstream Headteachers, the LA Officer for Admissions and Exclusions, an LA Assistant Director, the Exec Head of the KS3 and KS4 PRUs ensures that all pupils who make the necessary improvements are given the opportunity to move back into mainstream. The PRU will also assess those pupils who require specialist provision and will co-ordinate Formal Assessments to explore the needs of these children and how they can best be met.
