Accessibility Plan

The Advance Learning Partnership is committed to providing an accessible environment which values and includes all students, staff, parents/carers and visitors regardless of their educational, physical, sensory, social, spiritual, emotional or cultural needs. As a school, we are likewise committed to challenging negative attitudes to disability and accessibility, and to developing a culture of awareness, tolerance and inclusion.

We actively seek to provide premises that are suitable and sufficient for all educational purposes and give access to a broad and balanced curriculum for every student, irrespective of special need or disability. This Plan operates alongside the school’s SEND policy, is consistent with it in terms of principles, and approaches to resourcing.

The Following Accessibility Plan has been produced using guidance from the Equality Act 2010, to ensure that the Advance Learning Partnership does not discriminate against any student in the way it provides education for the student (including participation in the school’s curriculum), access to the facility and access to information. It is a projected plan for a three-year period, which will be constantly monitored ahead of the review date.

The school will actively seek to improve access to services in the ways set out below. The plan will be reviewed annually and updated to take account of improvements made, future resource availability and challenging needs in the target areas.

• Ensure the curriculum is differentiated to meet the learning needs of students with SEN and disabilities and that target setting is effective and appropriate for these students.
• Make available the written material usually provided to all students, in an appropriately presented form where necessary, to SEN & disabled students, including pictorial and oral formats and also to ensure that classroom organisation is planned to maximise learning opportunities.
• Manage and improve the physical environment of the school buildings and grounds as far as is practicable to meet the needs of the students currently on roll and prospective students.
• To establish a culture of mutual trust and respect between all members of the Greenfield Academy community.
• To build a community that respects the celebration of achievement at all levels.
