Silverdale Comprehensive School is located in Sheffield in the United Kingdom. It serves approximately one-thousand two-hundred pupils from the local area, from ages eleven to eighteen. It has a good reputation for getting very good results in national and external examinations, but has been criticised in the past for not being so good at the pastoral side of schooling. Recent OFSTED reports have shown an improvement in all areas.
Michael Vaughan, the current England cricket captain, his Irish wife Nichola Shannon (who works for one of Vaughan's favoured charities, the Sheffield Children's Trust), are prominent Silverdale ex-pupils.
