Welcome to Broadfield Specialist School

Broadfield Specialist School is a provision for students with generic learning difficulties aged 11-19, with a vibrant learning community that includes and values everyone.

Our Aims, Ethos & Values

What’s going on at Broadfield

  • Water Safety

    As we approach the summer holidays, we would like to remind parents, carers and students of the importance of staying safe around water. Many families will be spending time outdoors over the break, so we have attached some important water safety advice to help everyone enjoy the holidays safely.

  • Newsletter 2025/26

    Please take a look at our 2025/26 newsletter to see what each class has been up to throughout the year.

  • School Water Fight

    Today, students took part in the highly anticipated school water fight! There was a fantastic turnout, with both students and staff joining in the fun. It was wonderful to see everyone laughing, enjoying themselves, and making great memories.

  • Leadership & management

    Establish a programme of collaboration and cohesion to enable richer learning experiences. Promote a culture which evolves to embrace change. Enhance and enrich well-being to bring together the whole school community.

  • Personal development

    Provide our young people with the opportunities and skills to value themselves, thrive and learn.

  • Behaviour & attitudes

    Embed a 'whole child approach' to prepare each young person to recognise and achieve their potential.

  • Arrangements for Sixth Form

    Evolve college pathways to prepare learners for life ahead. Expand the work experience and Supported Internship Programme.
