 Summerhill Academy strives to meet the needs of all the children through a caring and inclusive approach. ‘Think like a Learner’ and ‘Learning Gems’ approaches are having a positive impact on the learning behaviours of the children and have helped to create an encouraging atmosphere.  Summerhill Academy uses the Mastery Maths approach, high quality texts to support English learning and has an enquiry based curriculum, which uses key questions to stimulate learning across the curriculum. Over the next year we are looking to develop high quality teaching and learning which inspires our children to aspire. 

At Summerhill Academy, we believe passionately in the importance of inclusion and equality for all children and adults, and strive to ensure that these values are at the heart of our SEND practices. Our Academy vision sets out to ensure that all students ENJOY high quality LEARNING experiences through which they are able to ACHIEVE their full potential. Our inclusive ethos aims to encourage all pupils to be actively involved in their own learning. This involves valuing all pupils and staff equally and reducing barriers to learning and participation. 

We will involve parents and children in key decisions, as well as planning and reviewing progress; we know that parents are the first educators of their child and that we need their knowledge and co-operation to plan effectively. 

Children are awarded different Gems for displaying positive learning behaviours. 

Diamond – for problem solving and taking responsibility

Sapphire- for focus on the task and ignoring ‘monster distractions’

Emerald- for resilience and being able to learn from mistakes

Ruby- for supporting others

Topaz – for co-operating and collaborating with others  

The academy works closely with parents and carers through parent forums, a fund raising group, class assemblies followed by stay and learn sessions and open afternoons where parents can come and see the school in action. 

We know that the earlier we identify SEND and provide support, the more successful our children will be. We are committed to providing support and resources for children with SEND to fulfil their individual potential. Our starting point is to guarantee a whole -school approach to providing for the needs of children with SEND. In other words, we make sure that all staff have the knowledge and skills to support all children, including those with SEND, throughout our School.
