Silverdale School is an extremely popular and high-achieving 11-18 comprehensive with over 1200 students in the south west of Sheffield and is the founding school of Chorus Education Trust. The school regularly achieves some of the best GCSE and A-level results of schools in Sheffield.
Silverdale moved into a brand new building (PFI) in January 2009 with a full complement of facilities. This was expanded in 2026 to create further teaching space and a dedicated Sixth Form facility. The school is attractively situated on a single site in 17 acres of grounds and enjoys extensive views over Sheffield and the surrounding countryside. The school has an Integrated Resource Unit for Profoundly Deaf children which is staffed by teachers from the Sheffield Service for Sensory Impaired Children.
In 2020 the Sunday Times awarded it Top State School in the North of the Decade.

Vision
At Silverdale School we have high ambitions for and expectations of all our students and encourage them to work hard, be committed, conduct themselves well and treat fellow members of our learning community with respect.
Our aim is to work in partnership with pupils and parents, and to provide education in a caring and supportive environment that allows each individual to develop morally, spiritually, physically and intellectually at the pace and in the direction which suits each pupil best so that the highest possible standards may be achieved. The school also works closely with employers and other schools and colleges.
We regard standards of behaviour as being of great importance. The school is concerned that its curriculum should both reflect and give value to the diversity of the pupil community and prepare pupils to take their place in a multi-cultural society.
