About the School

SAIL (Salisbury Academy for Inspiration Learners) is a day specialist provider of education in Salisbury, Wiltshire for children and young people aged from 4 to 19 years who have a diagnosis of autism and/or an SEMH profile.

Following opening on 1 September 2023, the school moved into new premises on Wilton Road in Salisbury. The current cohort of 87 is planned to grow towards a roll of 150 children over the course of the next 18 months.

SAIL’s aim is to build safe independent lives for the autistic and SEMH population through a process of understanding, support, and enablement. To achieve this goal the school will look at the unique impact autism and social, emotional, and mental health experiences has on the individual child. From this we aim as a school to personalise the child’s curriculum, care, and therapeutic package to ensure every child achieves and experiences success and independence, through learning today, whilst preparing for tomorrow.

This key intent is underpinned by a number of principles:

We will ensure that all children receive excellent teacher and learning and make progress,

We work consistently to build effective relationships, trust and understanding with our students

We build and foster positive relationships with parents and carers, putting pupil voice at the heart of everything and support all children so they trust, feel safe and secure.

This is achievable due to the dedication and support from a range of employed professionals who are passionate, reliable and understanding including dedicated education, pastoral and therapeutic teams.
