  • The Bicester School September Newsletter
    The Bicester School September Newsletter Dear Parents and Students, Welcome to our first newsletter of the year, with the School under a new sponsor, Activate Learning, a new name and a smart new uniform to give us all a sense of pride in our learning community. I would like to thank parents again for your support in ensuring your children are wearing the right uniform, not an easy task at all for a parent when teenagers possibly have a slightly different interpretation of ‘school’ trousers and shoes to their wiser adult parents. It has been an excellent start to the year, with students applying themselves well in all years, especially Year 11 and the Sixth Form which bodes well for the Summer exams. Parents of Year 11 will be well aware that we posted our best ever set of GCSE results in August 2015 and know we are keen for our Class of 2016 to achieve success too. Year 11 parents and students can expect the first set of CAP reports in the next two weeks which will give an early indication of progress being made. The new Year 7 students joined us in September and look superb in their uniforms and blazers. A difference this year has been to separate the Year 7’s from the rest of the school in tutor times and to appoint a Head of Year, Mr Matt Wootton, to work with them pastorally and academically in their first year, before they join the House system in June of next year. Already this looks like it is working well and the students seem very settled and enjoying being part of our community.

  • Women Empowerment Through Tourism – from Social Entrepreneurship Perspective
    WOMEN EMPOWERMENT THROUGH TOURISM – FROM SOCIAL ENTREPRENEURSHIP PERSPECTIVE THESIS SOCIAL-SPATIAL ANALYSIS SAL-80433 ONG SIAW THIEN SUPERVISOR: DR. IRENA ATELJEVIC SECOND READER: DRS. LINDA PEETERS MSC LEISURE, TOURISM AND ENVIRONMENT SOCIAL-SPATIAL ANALYSIS CHAIRGROUP WAGENINGEN UNIVERSITY AND RESEARCH CENTRE (WUR) WAGENINGEN, THE NETHERLANDS 2009 Women Empowerment through Tourism – From Social Entrepreneurship Perspective by Ong Siaw Thien Wageningen University And Research Centre (WUR), Wageningen, The Netherlands August 2009 ABSTRACT This research is building upon the latest literature of Ateljevic and Peeters on ‘Women empowerment - entrepreneurship nexus in tourism: processes of social innovation’ and intention to contribute to the larger project under Baseline Research Agenda UNWTO Taskforce Women Empowerment in Tourism. This research explores women empowerment through tourism with social entrepreneurship perspective. By using online semi structure interviews, the research takes up four case studies in Malaysia and Nepal to showcase the positive examples on how women empowerment through tourism is facilitated by the organizations which employ social entrepreneurship skills. By using concept of ‘Door, Lock and Key’, the research unfolds how tourism can be a tool in empowering women, how social entrepreneurship skills are used to facilitate tourism as an effective tool to empower women, and finally, how by empowering women, it leads to solutions to broader social issues with the indications based on Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). This research clearly showed that tourism can definitely work as an effective tool to solve social issues directly and indirectly. Tourism can be used as a KEY or tool to open the DOOR in which it creates equal opportunities for women; create opportunities for employment and income generation; promote adult education and reduce illiteracy; increase awareness on health (maternal health) and hygiene; offer option for viability of indigenous community which allow them to maintain their traditional life etc.

  • Profiles of Students Funded by IWSN
    Profiles of students supported by the International Water Security Network The International Water Security Network (IWSN) is a collaborative research project led by the University of the West of England, in partnership with the University of Arizona and Monash South Africa. It seeks to improve global understanding of water security challenges around the world. A key component of the project is the training of future professionals in water management for sustainability and security. We believe that offering studentships, support and prizes will encourage the brightest young minds to devote themselves to this critical area of work. This support includes: PhD, MSc and MPhil scholarships, funding for Post-Doctoral Research Associates, Student Prizes for the best undergraduate dissertations covering water issues, and funding students to undertake research overseas. For more information visit our website: www.watersecuritynetwork.org or follow us on Twitter @water_network The International Water Security Network is project is funded by Lloyd’s Register Foundation, a charitable foundation helping to protect life and property by supporting engineering-related education, public engagement and the application of research.

  • Entering the European Market for SAVE Travel Products 1. What
    Entering the European market for SAVE travel products Last updated: 05 February 2020 Dominated by young travellers, SAVE tourism is attracting increasing numbers of Europeans who want to have a meaningful travel experience. The market demands responsible and ethical tourism practices, particularly when working with vulnerable children and wildlife. As a growing niche, there are numerous opportunities to develop positive relationships with specialist voluntourism tour operators and OTAs (online travel agencies) that serve the market. Contents of this page 1. What requirements must SAVE travel products comply with to be allowed on the European market? 2. Through what channels can you get SAVE travel products on the European market? 3. What competition will you face on the European SAVE tourism market? 4. What are the prices for SAVE tourism travel products on the European market? 1. What requirements must SAVE travel products comply with to be allowed on the European market? SAVE tourism is an important sub-segment of the broader adventure travel niche, and volunteering is the activity that transcends all the profiles of Scientific, Academic, Volunteering and Educational. European tourism tour operators that specialise in providing SAVE travel products are bound by strict regulations to ensure the safety of their travellers while travelling overseas and to protect them financially. This means that they expect their foreign suppliers to adhere to their codes of conduct and/or terms and conditions. As you will be selling your SAVE travel product to them, it is important that you understand what these are. What are the mandatory and additional requirements that buyers have? The mandatory and additional requirements for SAVE tourism travel products are common across the adventure tourism sector.
