Education Update Sevenoaks Scrutiny Committee Tuesday 24 Th April 2018 Education Update Sevenoaks Scrutiny Committee Tuesday 24 th April 2018 Roger Gough, Cabinet Member for Children Young People and Education School Place Provision In Sevenoaks Education Commissioning Plan • The Kent Commissioning Plan for Education sets out the need for 2018-24 • Previous Plan forecasting accuracy was as follows: – Year R: Sevenoaks 2.9%, Kent overall -0.1% – Year 7: Sevenoaks 2.4%, Kent overall -0.1% Context • Going forward, any additional demand in Sevenoaks is now mainly predicated on inward migration. • Across the district, there is sufficient capacity for primary, for both Year R and for Total Roll. • Small pockets of higher demand, but partly driven by parental preference. • Secondary picture skewed by the lack of Grammar provision. • More than 40% of secondary aged students in the South of the district, travel to attend schools in Tonbridge or Tunbridge Wells. • Introduction of Weald Of Kent Grammar Annexe will help to alleviate this. Context • Likely further Secondary expansions will be required as there are only 3 Secondary provisions in Sevenoaks (plus the Grammar Annexe). • No Primary year groups under significant pressures on a district wide basis. Swanley/Hextable most likely to encounter pressures in the future, but this is not being realised as yet. • Even though Primary numbers dipped slightly in 2017, they now appear to have plateaued. • However, the growth in primary numbers in recent years is now starting to impact on the secondary demand. School Commissioning: Mainstream • Sevenoaks Primary: Planning Group Short Term Medium term Long Term by 2018-19 by 2019-20 by 2020-21 2021-22 to 2024-25 1FE in Swanley and Swanley and Hextable Hextable. Current information for the 2018-19 academic year indicates that there will not be a need for any expansion in Swanley for 2019. This possible demand is likely to be pushed back in the next iteration of the KCP. Commissioning of Secondary School Places • Following closure of Oasis Academy Hextable, there are only three Secondary Schools in Sevenoaks – Knole Academy – Orchards Academy – Trinity Free School • The District now also benefits from the 3FE Girls Grammar Annexe (part of the Weald of Kent School in Tonbridge) Sevenoaks Grammar Annex • KCC maintains its policy of pursuing a Boys Grammar Annexe provision in Sevenoaks. • At least 1100 children leave Sevenoaks district to attend grammar schools in Tonbridge or Tunbridge Wells. • Local pressure in Tonbridge & Tunbridge Wells means that fewer grammar places will be available to Sevenoaks students. • Even following the establishment of the Trinity Free School, local demand in Sevenoaks means that a grammar provision would be necessary to fulfil the statutory duty to provide school places. School Commissioning: Mainstream • Sevenoaks Secondary : by 2018-19 by 2019-20 By 2020-21 2021-22 to 2025-26 2FE in 2FE in Sevenoaks Sevenoaks – September 2018: • 2FE Temporary Expansion of Trinity School. Consultation on permanent expansion now complete and school will now continue to admit 6FE in the future rather than the previous 4FE • Most obvious candidate for the next 2FE expansion would be Knole Academy Housing • Sevenoaks District Council’s (SDC) existing Core Strategy, adopted in 2011, plans for 3,300 new homes up to 2026. • Some of this need is being delivered with the remaining locations for growth identified within SDC’s ‘Allocations and Development Management Plan’ adopted in February 2015. • KCC are mindful that SDC is working on a new Local Plan to run from 2019 to 2035 which will replace the adopted Core Strategy. • Following the call for sites, KCC officers have been made aware of a number of potential developments in areas such as Halstead, Edenbridge and Westerham. • If any major sites do proceed then the impact could be significant with the need for additional provision in the district. Primary Offer Day • County wide almost 90% offered 1 st Preference • Lowest recorded school allocations: – Sevenoaks 22 allocations (1.7%) • Still strong demand for schools in Sevenoaks Town (expansion of Seal Primary School) • Anticipated growth not yet coming through in Swanley and Hextable • Some schools with significant spare capacity Sevenoaks area for appeals into Reception or Yr 7 for 2017: In Round Appeals 2017 Appeals Appeals Schools within the Sevenoaks Area Heard Successful : Chevening (St Botolph's) CEP School 2 1 Fawkham CEP School 1 0 Ide Hill CEP School 1 0 Kemsing Primary School 1 0 Lady Boswell's CEP School, Sevenoaks 1 0 Trinity School 5 5 Grammar Appeals In Round Appeals 2017 Appeals Appeals Heard Successful Dartford Grammar School : 116 3 Dartford Grammar School for Girls 93 0 Wilmington Grammar School for Boys 86 6 Wilmington Grammar School for Girls 122 10 Tun.

  • Judd School Complies with the Co-Ordinated Admission Scheme Which Is Administered by KCC
    CRITERIA FOR THE ADMISSION OF STUDENTS TO YEAR 7 IN SEPTEMBER 2021 The Judd School complies with the Co-ordinated Admission Scheme which is administered by KCC. All students must be boys assessed suitable for grammar school through the Kent Procedure for Entrance to Secondary Education (PESE). A maximum of 180 places will be offered. The school has a Specialist Resource Provision for students with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Up to 4 students are admitted each year to the resource provision. These places are reserved for students with Education, Health and Care Plans (EHCPs) with a diagnosis of ASD and are allocated by the local authority, NOT by the school. These places are in addition to the PAN of 180. However, before the application of oversubscription criteria, other children with an Education, Health and Care Plan which names the school will be admitted. As a result of this, the published admissions number of 180 would be reduced accordingly. The Inner Area 157 places will be allocated to students resident in the Inner Area, which is defined by the following postcodes: TN1, TN2, TN3, TN4, TN8, TN9, TN10, TN11, TN12, TN13, TN14, TN15; ME18, ME19; TN16 1** and TN16 2** (not TN16 3** or TN16 9**); DA4 0** (not DA4 9**). Plus the civil parish of Halstead (where this is not included above). The Outer Area 23 places will be allocated to students resident in the Outer Area which is defined as being outside the Inner Area (above) and within the mainland of the United Kingdom. Undersubscription Should there be insufficient qualifying applications in one of the areas then the number of places allocated in the other area will be increased accordingly.

  • The Judd School Newsletter
    The Judd School Headteacher’s | Newsletter MERRY CHRISTMAS! It has been a long first term at the helm, filled with many successes as you will read in this newsletter! It is not often that I ask people to spare a thought for teachers when thinking about holidays, but with only 12 days off before we return to another busy term it feels like we’ll struggle to recuperate. The successes outlined below could not be achieved without the incredible support freely given by teachers and support staff in helping your amazing children achieve what they do! Huge Thanks to the JPA… for their organisation of another fantastic Christmas Fayre, raising significant funds for the school to support all the extra goings on. This has enabled the school to get a new minibus which is already being regularly used and will allow younger members of staff to drive a minibus without an excessive amount of additional testing and training. On Friday 24th November Ms Yarham and Mr Rowlands took 20 Year 12 students to take part in this year’s Model United Nations Competition. This is a fantastic event which requires students to take on the role of the UN. The aim of the day is to develop students’ research skills, their debating skills, and increase their awareness of global events. In addition to this, there are prizes available for the best contributions. The Judd School sent four delegations representing Canada, Indonesia, Pakistan, and Vanuatu. In addition, we had students taking on the role of the Chair Person in the Committee on Indigenous Peoples’ Rights, a press team, and a secretariat team.

  • Joint Statement from West Kent Secondary School Headteachers
    St John’s Road Tunbridge Wells Kent TN4 9PG Tel: 01892 520732 E-mail: [email protected] Headmaster: Edward Wesson MA Website: www.skinners-school.co.uk Joint Statement from West Kent Secondary School Headteachers Open Events Following discussion, the Headteachers of West Kent Secondary Schools (listed below) have collectively taken the decision that for the foreseeable future all ‘Open Events’ for transition to secondary school in year 7 and for transition to the Sixth Form across our schools will be hosted online, not on our school premises. Whilst we all recognise the value of ‘Open Events’ in enabling students and parents to find out more about the educational provision offered at our schools, our priority during this current public health crisis is to ensure the safety of our schools and the wider community. Open Events in our schools are popular and inevitably bring parents and children from a wide area into relatively close proximity which increases the risk of community transmission. As a group of schools we are committed to ensuring we offer an online experience that supports all families to make informed decisions on school transfer. Each school will, of course, plan their online open events to take account of their specific context. Parents are encouraged to check the websites of our individual schools for further information.
