Outcome – Royal School Manchester continues to be an outstanding school.

Royal School Manchester’s  individualised curriculum is guided by ongoing student assessment completed by a multi- disciplinary team (MDT). This ensures that the student’s strengths and needs are the basis of their individual curriculum. To provide a holistic view of the student, a collection of assessment tools are used throughout the year and at specific times throughout the year / key stage.

At Seashell, we focus on delivering the best life outcomes for our students, their families and their communities. We reach this objective by providing high quality, coordinated and seamless specialist education, therapy and care with a fully embedded positive behaviour support plan.

The purpose of this procedure is to record details of all compliments and formal complaints received from service users and to provide a process to resolve formal complaints nearest their point of origin and prevent potential formal complaints escalating.

This policy aims to ensure members of staff, children and young people, volunteers, contractors, and visitors are aware of the duties placed upon the charity by equality legislation and regulations. It is a comprehensive policy to explain the background, law, and our intentions together with our commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion.

This policy informs lesson planning and students’ individual POS and boundaries around the issues that can be explored and the range of teaching methods.  It also informs parents and carers, who will look at both the RSE curriculum content and the values the school is promoting, and informs professionals involved in the education, health and care of students of the aims, objectives and values the school’s RSE curriculum promotes.

We are dedicated to ensuring that the principles and duties of safeguarding children and young people are at the heart of what we do and are holistically, consistently and conscientiously applied for the wellbeing of all.
