Approved Register of Alternative Curriculum Provision for Salfords Secondary Schools and Academies

Salford City Council invites applications for the Approved Provider Register for Alternative Provision. Although the vast majority of young people attend mainstream secondary schools and academies to receive their education in KS3 and KS4, some young people benefit from receiving some, or all, of their education and support in 'off-site' settings that are delivered away from their school.Where alternative provision has been arranged for a pupil, the provider needs to ensure that the provision continues to meet the same quality standards that would be expected for education being delivered by the schools. This includes: an appropriate curriculum offer, delivered by qualified staff, and; a safe learning environment that is compliant with relevant safeguarding and child protection policies and procedures. To support our schools with this process, the Council is creating the register, which schools can use to source and commission suitable alternative provision for their pupils in KS3 and KS4. Providers will be required to complete the Council's application process and provide appropriate evidence and documentation to demonstrate how they satisfy the requirements set out in this Service Specification and the attached documents.
