Details of what are planned to mark this milestone will be sent to you all in January 2019, and we very much hope that your sons will find this a memorable year. The booklet is intended to tell you a little about the Middle School and how it works, and answer some of those day-to-day questions which may arise. Year 9 is an important year, as it sees some significant foundations laid towards eventual GCSEs in Year 11, but it is also a time when boys can begin to find the things which really interest them through the array of clubs and societies which are available to boys in the Middle and Upper Schools. There are challenges too, whether it is making new friends, coming to grips with the world of social media or beginning the journey to adulthood, but, as I hope this booklet shows, there are plenty of people who are here to help and guide all the boys through the next three years at Dulwich. Organisation Mrs Alice R Lees Mr James Faiers Mr Martin Geach Head of Year 9 Head of Year 10 Head of Year 11 [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] There are about 600 boys in the Middle School, with approximately 200 in each year, who are usually placed in one of ten Forms. In Year 9, boys are placed according to how they have, in general, performed in their previous exams. Forms can also be created around first or second language choices and social mix. In Year 10, Forms are created around science and mathematical ability as well as social and academic considerations. We try to provide the right number of combinations to cater for the needs of the specific year group. Forms or sets are also created to meet GCSE choices. The policy of the Middle School is to provide continuity of teachers between Years 10 and 11. A decision on which subjects are studied to A level is made in the Lent term of Year 11. 2 Your Three Terms in Year 9: an Overview MICHAELMAS 2018 Friday 31 August Induction Day Monday 3 September Term begins Monday 10 September Team Building Day Wednesday 12 September Parents’ Social Evening with Form Tutors TBC Union Fair Friday 21 (5.30pm) – EXEAT Weekend for Boarders Sunday 23 September (5.30pm) Saturday 20 October – Half Term Sunday 4 November October & December Assessment Grades Friday 23 (5.30pm) – EXEAT Weekend for Boarders Sunday 25 November (5.30pm) Friday 14 December End of Term at 12 noon LENT 2019 Wednesday 9 January Term begins Friday 25 (5.30pm) – EXEAT Weekend for Boarders Sunday 27 January (5.30pm) February & March Assessment Grades Saturday 16 – Half Term Sunday 24 February Tuesday 12 March Parents’ Evening GCSE Choices made Friday 29 March End of Term at 12 noon SUMMER 2019 Wednesday 24 April Term begins May & June Assessment Grades Friday 3 (5.30pm) – EXEAT Weekend for Boarders Monday 6 May (5.30pm) Saturday 25 May – Half Term Sunday 2 June Monday 3 – Internal Examinations Week Friday 7 June Monday 24 – Founder’s Week Saturday 29 June July Report Thursday 4 July End of Term at 12 noon The final day of term includes an assembly which is an important reflection of the College as a community.

Founder’s Day usually falls on the last Saturday of the summer term and all staff and boys are expected to attend on the day and to participate in some event or activity. Middle School activities include a wide range of charity fundraising initiatives and House cricket matches. The day ends with a spectacular outdoor concert and firework display which takes place on the Front Lawns at 7.45pm, picnics from 6pm. However, Founder’s Day in 2019 will be part of a week-long celebration of the College’s 400th Anniversary. Details for this will be sent out in January 2019. 4 Middle School: Academic Mr D A P King Deputy Master (Academic) [email protected] Academic Objectives Year 9 is used as an occasion for preparing boys for their two-year GCSE courses. It is important that boys’ parents are aware of the two types of subjects boys follow, sometimes referred to as compound and discrete. Compound subjects include languages, Mathematics and sciences. In the case of these subjects Year 9 work is vital, for, without a firm foundation, work in Year 10 and Year 11 becomes difficult, especially as some GCSE syllabus work is taught in Year 9. Discrete subjects, such as Geography and History, do, of course, teach vital skills and basic information but, in the case of these subjects, they are more topic based. One of the most important skills required in both types of subject in Year 9 is learning. Pupils must develop their own techniques for efficient learning; they should be aware of the distinction between short and long term memory, they should be aware of rote learning and the need to use this technique. These skills and recognitions should be in place by the end of Year 9 to ensure academic success in Years 10 and 11. A second important area is prep. Boys will be expected to begin to develop their own skills of organisation in this area. It is vital that they realise the place of prep in the Middle School; it is not an optional extra but an important extension of work done during lessons. In Year 9, boys should spend about one and a half hours per night on prep. This must be quality time, when they are concentrating, working quietly without distractions. Boys will be offered plenty of support in the Middle School helping them get into good study routines. They will spend time with Form Tutors talking about and planning time for revision along with attending seminars run by a visiting company “Elevate Education”. Further support from Elevate is available on their website and via Twitter which boys are encouraged to use. In Years 10 and 11, the amount of prep will increase and boys will be expected to manage their time to be able to deal with extended preps as they begin to tackle written coursework in a number of subjects. All boys in the Middle School are issued with an academic prep diary which they are required to use and we encourange parents to check. Daily Report The College runs an online record system called ‘Daily Report’. The aim of this is to monitor boys’ learning habits around punctuality, organisation and effort. Through this system, parents are notified if a boy has failed to complete his prep to a satisfactory standard. Boys who are flagged up on Daily Report three times in a week, in each monitored area, will serve a Daily Report detention on a Wednesday at lunchtime. Parents are also notified if a boy has been awarded a merit for effort in the classroom. 5 Reports and Progress Boys in the Middle School usually receive one full written report each year: in Year 9, at the end of the Summer term; in Year 10, at the end of the Lent term; in Year 11, in the second half of the Michaelmas term.

    Minnetonka Schools welcomes you to MIDDLE SCHOOL Grades 6-8 | Course Catalog “Middle school staff in Minnetonka have created a model middle-level program for students, one that challenges students academically, yet promotes social and emotional growth of students through strong partnerships with parents.” — Dr. Dave Peterson Peterson Educational Leadership LLC 2 Dear Parents Welcome to Minnetonka Middle Schools! We are proud of our outstanding educational program supported by a close sense of community that inspires in every student a passion to excel. There are three essential characteristics of high-performing middle schools: a rigorous academic program that encourages students to exceed their own expectations; a strong family-like community that ensures every student makes new friends and experiences a sense of belonging and support; and finally, a diverse curriculum that allows students to wonder, discover, create and envision a future with a wide variety of potential interests. Ask any middle school student what is most important about middle school and you will hear “friends.” But as parents and educators, we know there is so much more. Our young teens will grow as much during middle school as they did from infancy through the toddler years—physically, emotionally and intellectually. Our middle school staff loves this age group! The quirky humor, the occasional clumsiness and the insatiable desire to “know it all” all present Middle School opportunities to connect with and inspire students in unique ways. We are here to stretch their minds and their hearts. District: Minnetonka Public Schools #276 In Minnetonka, we are proud to offer a wide variety of learning opportunities Contact: for middle school students.

This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

    Tiff any Stern, ‘Repatching the Play’ 1 Tiff any Stern Oxford University Theatre histories often explore the context surrounding the creation of the play. Was there one author or many? Did the physical make up of the theatre or the company shape the production of the work? Each of these topics importantly helps defi ne the world that brought about the text. But despite the huge interest in what shaped the play, the nature of the play itself is less often questioned. The unity of a play is often taken as a given; articles on the revising of play texts tend to assume that one whole and complete text was equally revised over by its author. Why, it is then asked, did playwrights bother to write long plays that would then have to be cut and rewritten in the playhouse itself? By exploring the fragmentary nature of the text, an answer to that question can be suggested. The designation ‘playwright’ seems to have come into being in the 1610s.2 With its implications of writing plays as a trade – playwright obviously relating to such jobs as cartwright and wheelwright – ‘playwright’ was probably, as a title, originally pejorative. There were other more common and neutral words to describe the profession. One – the most usual – was ‘poet’, telling in itself with its implication that all plays are or should be in verse. Another less hierarchical term was ‘play- maker’, a simple description of the task of writing plays. A fourth title has not been critically noticed, or at least not for what it implies.

The results of the survey were compared to the central tenets of the middle school philosophy. The findings indicate that of the study participants who prepare middle grades teach- ers, the majority do believe in ideas that align with key components of the middle school concept.
