About this school
Silverdale is a special school in Swinton. It teaches children aged 11 to 16.
Ofsted has not yet inspected Silverdale under its current framework. Seeing a school for yourself shows what no page can, so arrange a visit before you apply.
Ofsted judgement
Silverdale has not been inspected by Ofsted yet. It opened in its current form in September 2026, and new or converted schools usually wait a few years for their first inspection.
Before converting it was The New Broadwalk PRU. The history below belongs to that predecessor school, not to the school as it runs today.
Predecessor school: The New Broadwalk PRU (closed August 2026)
Ofsted did not give an overall grade. Between September 2024 and September 2025 inspections graded each area of a school's work without a single overall judgement, ahead of the move to report cards. How Ofsted report cards work
