@ Beechenhurst @ Beechenhurst Launch - Saturday 4th November 2017 from 2pm Exhibition runs until Sunday 19th November 2017 YOUNG PEOPLE ACROSS THE FOREST OF DEAN JOIN TOGETHER TO MAKE A REALLY BIG NOISE ABOUT THINGS THAT MATTER MOST TO THEM THE EVOLUTION A warm welcome to everyone, you are now a part of our BARK community. I would like to take this opportunity to share with you our journey so far. During the summer of 2015 a small group of students at Gloucester and Forest Alternative School Provision (GFAPS) worked with Felix Braun, a veteran street artist from Bristol and founder of Paintsmiths. This core group developed a project called BARK to enable GFAPS students to return to the wider community as art coaches and mentor young people in a range of educational settings, encouraging self expression through the medium of Street Art. Early in the Spring of 2016 we started the drive to secure funding and also engage our local community. GFAPS students were directly involved in delivering the BARK concept out in the community. By the end of 2016 we met with two new Paintsmiths , Jack and Tom, who shared skills and ideas with all students at GFAPS forming the new core BARK team. During 2017 the BARK team visited each of our community groups and delivered three full day workshops. Our GFAPS students were able to encourage all young people to shout out loud in a visual way about the things that mattered most to them as we all benefited from the constant professional guidance given by our artists. Around one hundred and fifty young artists working out of six organisations have produced fifty one large scale boards which are on display for your appreciation. Our original core group had at the heart of their vision that the work should be seen in the trees to celebrate being a Forest child. There could be no better location. Susan Woodward. Many thanks to the Arts Council England for their substantial grant towards the cost of BARK. Many thanks to the Summerfield Charitable Trust for their substantial grant towards the cost of BARK. Many thanks to all organisations who contributed towards the cost of BARK. The BARK project needs to credit the value added for all the time and effort invested by some key adults who were pivotal in the evolution and success of this project. Jane Collins at Wyedean School and Sixth Form Centre. Gareth Ovens & Fiona Morrissey at the Forest Of Dean Scouts. Adrian Woodward at Newent Community School. Rob Toomer at Artspace Cinderford. Kate Charles at The Dean Academy. Susan Woodward at GFAPS. Many thanks to The Forestry Commission England for hosting the project and for contributing towards the project costs. Many thanks to the Sculpture Trust for their support and advice. Thanks is simply not enough! Felix Braun Jack Dones Tom Sledgemore It was a privilege working with you. www.paintsmiths.org Huge thanks to Lisa and her team at Travis Perkins in Lydney. Thanks for always having the colours we needed with brilliant customer service. Thanks to every member of GFAPS staff who have simply gone the extra mile to make BARK happen. Too many to mention by name, need to say Elisa, Alison and Philippa. x KEEP AN OPEN MIND We wanted to create an image to show that it is good to be open-minded. This has been done by using a dark coloured silhouetted figure with an ‘open mind’ in front of a dull grey brick wall with lots of bright colours emitting from the head to represent creativity and individuality. We also included the image of the black and white hands together to represent equality and unity. LAURIE, ETHAN AND CHRIS EQUALITY The theme for our board was equality, we divided our board up into 4 equal parts we each focussed on an equality issue that was important to us. Around the outside of the board we have written stereotypes that we think should be challenged, along with statements and things that we don’t like. All of our aspects join together in the middle of the board to create a big equality heart using colours from each section. ANYA, EMILY, BESS AND NAOMI AUTISM AND ANIMAL CRUELTY For our board we focussed on animal cruelty and autism as they are topics that we are very passionate about. We split our board in half so as we could each do our own work but faded them together in the middle to make them one image. Sian -Something as little as buying only cruelty free make-up and cosmetics will make such a difference. Kara -I wanted to help celebrate differences by showing individuality. SIAN AND KARA STAR WARS AND MYTHICAL PLACES We decorated our board according to all of our interests, it is all about creativity and inspiration and we wanted it to look fun. We took elements from the things that we find most interesting or inspiring which were; Star Wars, Pokemon and Harry Potter. We then combined them to make an interesting composition. Our image celebrates creativity, individuality and magic. We have imagined, star wars, Harry Potter, and Pokemon all in the same universe. JUDE RAY, HARRY, CHARLIE AND JAMES ON AIR A couple of our young people muscled in on workshop time at Artspace and during the Scouts weekend sessions, we simply couldn't shake them... claiming a board, talking to our artists and using so much spray paint. All in true rock band style! Who are we to limit their desire to promote the value of music? More than happy to support a new young band called ON AIR. So we said go on have more paint boys! Rock on. ON AIR ARE WILF, OLLY, FINN, MORGAN AND ARTHUR. OLLY AND WILF @ ARTSPACE AND SCOUTS NO ABUSE NO BULLYING Our piece tells you about how bad abuse and bullying is. It represents abuse and people who have been bullied. BRADLEY, ROSS, WYATT AND COURTNEY FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS We made this to tell people to follow their dreams and don’t worry about the bad things happening in the world and just to focus on their dream. KASEY AND GRAICIE SPEAK OUT Our group has created a canvas of mental illness and drugs, using spray paints. Our aim is to show everyone that they have people who can help and support them, in times they need it most. TAIYA, ELLA, LEXI, MAZY AND BARNEY PEACE AND WAR We wanted to show the difference between peace and war and how war could be fixed with Peace if we try. We got images online and also free-handed a lot of them. We separated Peace and War into two sections and then over-flowed each area with peace and war. HOLLY, JADE, JOSIE-MAY AND CERYS MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU Our piece of work has been based on star wars, this is something we both like and the latest film was filmed at puzzle wood. We have really enjoyed working with the artist and learning how to make art with spray paint. NEAL AND SEB PRIDE Our group’s concept was to express equality and sexuality in different ways, including Korean writing (Hangul) and quotes. Pikachu is just there for the ‘bants.. The rainbow drops represent the Gay Pride flag. RYLEIGH, LEIA, TEQUILA AND JESSIE FANTASY Our board was about Fantasy and mythical creatures. We’ve done a Galaxy background and a sun and a moon. We chose Fantasy because we both love mythical things and cartoon stuff. Melody thinks, “We could have used different shades and angles, e.g. a piece of card to add shade.” Molly thinks, “I think anything else added would have ruined it.” MELODY AND MOLLY LIKE LIFE We spray-painted a picture to do with the things we like. James contributed things to do with Harry Potter, whilst Tabitha and Pippa contributed things to do with Japan, Anime and cats. We used stencils. We drew and cut out and spray-painted it onto a large board. JAMES, PIPPA AND TABITHA WIN OR LOSE Our board was about Pac-Man. We accomplished it by using and making stencils and images from our heads. It is supposed to represent tackling obstacles and the need to work harder to reach your goal. JOSH, KIA AND TREV BE YOURSELF Never hide behind a mask, be who you are at all times. Be honest with other people and you and your truth will be accepted. JAMES, SUPPORTED BY LINDON AND JAY RADIATION What goes around comes around so make sure what your giving out is what you want to get back! CHLOE RESPECT Inspired by the ‘Girls Can’ advertising campaign we decided to celebrate all that girls can be and are to us. ADAM AND JOSEF SUPPORTED BY LINDON, JAY AND OUR KS2 STUDENTS LIFE AND DEATH So much can be said with a smiley face. Even the bad bits like death can be beautiful especially if you look at the way Mexicans celebrate the end of life. CALLUM TROUBLE All the choices are yours in life. Mistakes may be made. It is how you deal with these that makes you a good person. Call a friend in times of need and don't try to go it alone. JAY DROP OUT Do not discriminate, please. NIALL, CHLOE, ADAM, RHIANNA, KAHN, ROWAN, BRANDON AND ARCHIE. AIM HIGH Believe in all that you are. NIALL, CHLOE, ADAM, RHIANNA, KAHN, ROWAN, BRANDON AND ARCHIE. KNIFE CRIME COSTS LIVES The harm lasts forever. NIALL, CHLOE, ADAM, RHIANNA, KAHN, ROWAN, BRANDON AND ARCHIE.

  • Secondary School and Academy Admissions
    Secondary School and Academy Admissions INFORMATION BOOKLET 2021/2022 For children born between 1st September 2009 and 31st August 2010 Page 1 Schools Information Admission number and previous applications This is the total number of pupils that the school can admit into Year 7. We have also included the total number of pupils in the school so you can gauge its size. You’ll see how oversubscribed a school is by how many parents had named a school as one of their five preferences on their application form and how many of these had placed it as their first preference. Catchment area Some comprehensive schools have a catchment area consisting of parishes, district or county boundaries. Some schools will give priority for admission to those children living within their catchment area. If you live in Gloucestershire and are over 3 miles from your child’s catchment school they may be entitled to school transport provided by the Local Authority. Oversubscription criteria If a school receives more preferences than places available, the admission authority will place all children in the order in which they could be considered for a place. This will strictly follow the priority order of their oversubscription criteria. Please follow the below link to find the statistics for how many pupils were allocated under the admissions criteria for each school - https://www.gloucestershire.gov.uk/education-and-learning/school-admissions-scheme-criteria- and-protocol/allocation-day-statistics-for-gloucestershire-schools/. We can’t guarantee your child will be offered one of their preferred schools, but they will have a stronger chance if they meet higher priorities in the criteria.

  • Wyedean School Admissions Policy
    Admissions Policy 2016 Students will be admitted to Wyedean School without reference to ability or aptitude. The school’s admission number for entry in September 2016 is 174. Where applications for admission exceed the number of places available, the following criteria will be applied, in the order set out below, to decide which children to admit: 1. Looked After Children/Previously Looked After Children. A 'looked after child' (1) or a child who was previously looked after but immediately after being looked after became subject to an adoption, (2) child arrangements order (residency order) (3) or special guardianship order (4) . (1) A 'looked after child' is a child who is (a) in the care of a local authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (see the definition in Section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989) at the time of making an application to a school. In Gloucestershire, such children are referred to as Children in Care. (2) This includes children who were adopted under the Adoption Act 1976 (see section 12 adoption orders) and children who were adopted under the Adoption and Childrens Act 2002 (see section 46 adoption orders). (3) Under the provisions of s.14 of the Children and Families Act 2014, which amend section 8 of the Children Act 1989, residence orders have now been replaced by child arrangements orders.
