  • A Review of Short Breaks Within Children's Services
    A review of Short Breaks within Children’s Services Short breaks is a term used to describe a group of services that includes overnight and daytime respite, approved carers and specialist after school clubs, holiday clubs and play schemes. June 2016 1 | P a g e Contents Introduction 3 Co-production 3 Purpose of the Focus Groups 3 Legislation 4 Process 5 Findings 7 Impact on Family Life 9 Early Intervention 9 Universal Services 10 Parent carer concerns regarding Local Authority practice 11 Conclusions 13 Addendum 14 2 | P a g e Introduction SNAP - The Special Needs Action Panel – your local parent carer forum, is an independent group of parent carers whose role is to ensure the voice of families of children and young people with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities 0 to 25 years is heard. We work with health, education, social care and other agencies to promote effective two way communication and partnership and co-produce services. SNAP brings a valuable independent perspective and constructive challenge to the future planning of services. Co-production Co-production happens when service providers and service users recognise the benefits of working in true partnership with each other. This process is adopted ‘from the start’, when planning, developing, implementing or reviewing a service. It means that all the right people are around the table right from the beginning of an idea, and that they are involved equally to: Shape, design, develop, implement, and review services. Make recommendations, plans, actions, and develop materials. Work together right from the start of the process, through to the end.

  • School Structural Consultation Bedford Borough School Structure Changes
    School structural consultation Bedford Borough School Structure Changes Public Consultation School Organisation Review Foreword On Friday 3 July 2015, we announced that we would work alongside schools in Bedford Borough to design and deliver a transition from a three-tier education system (with lower, middle and upper schools) to a two-tier system (with primary and secondary schools). We have been working alongside head teachers and governors to ensure that these changes to schools are as coordinated and coherent as possible and, at the same time, are able to ofer future certainty to parents, carers and guardians. Having spoken to many parents in the Borough, our priority is for every school in the Borough to be good or outstanding and to ensure that parents, carers and guardians are able to clearly understand the route their child, or children could take through the education system. We feel it is important that as schools are finalising their school-specific proposals and consulting on them accordingly with their communities, Bedford Borough Council provides an overview of the strategic plans for the Borough as a whole. Within this document you will find an overview of each school and the proposals they are consulting on, together with a link to where you can find their consultation documents. The document also provides an overview of the proposed transition options for children and young people as we move towards a two-tier system. We really want to hear your views before we decide whether to take on this big change in schools structures in Bedford Borough. More than 90% of our schools are independently rated as good or outstanding according to the school inspector Ofsted, putting us at the top of local authorities in the Eastern Region, and we want to continue to enable children and young people in Bedford Borough to access the best opportunities in life and the best start in life.

  • Consultation Document
    …on changes to Special Schools and Additional Resource Provisions within mainstream schools This consultation is open from February 3, 2021, to May 5, 2021. You can have your say online at www.schoolsforthefuture.co.uk/SEND Introduction This consultation is about how we propose to provide more school places for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) in both mainstream schools and specialist provision that meets the needs of the young people in Central Bedfordshire in the future. We expect the number of local residents in Central Bedfordshire to grow in the coming years, with around 43,000 new homes expected to be built by 2035 – and that means more SEND school places will be needed. Because of the changes, local schools have been working together, with Central Bedfordshire Council, on the ambitious Schools for the Future programme, which is a long-term plan to raise education standards and make sure we have: • The right schools • In the right places • Delivering the best education Through this, we will aim to ensure that the following outcomes are achieved: • Health – children and young people with SEND will be as healthy as possible • Wellbeing – the wellbeing of children and young people with SEND will be optimised • Aspiration – children and young people with SEND will learn and develop to the best of their ability • Independence – children and young people with SEND will be enabled to reach their potential • Involvement – children and young people with SEND and their families will be able to influence their services This consultation is in the following parts: Part 1: Central Bedfordshire’s 132 mainstream schools all support children with Special Education Needs and Disabilities (SEND).

  • 1932-Volume-10-Number-2-Summer-Omni-Ocr.Pdf
    St. Michael's College Magazine, HITCHIN. VOLUME X. No. 2. SUMMER, 1932. EDITOR : REV. ANDREW BECK, A.A. EDITORIAL. Though language, race, environment and culture may differ, there are some gestures and some actions which have the same significance for all the members of the human race. There are some sentiments which go deeper than any difference of nation, colour or people : for they belong to all humanity. The open palm at all times has been a sign of peace and salutation, and some form of kneeling with upraised eyes and hands has seemed to all mankind properly the attitude of prayer. Man can think himself to religion ; for if he reads the universe, the wonders of nature, or his own soul, the truth comes home to him that behind all that exists is the Supreme Being ; that there is a God to Whom he owes all that he is and does. Man, unspoilt, takes naturally to the attitude of adoration which all races have seen in the bended knee and upraised hands. Every race, from the dimmest depths of the Babylonian and Egyptian past, has had its priesthood and its solemn ritual for the more perfect service of the Author of all things. Every race has sought to adore God in its own way. Yet, to one race alone was it given to adore God in the way that He had chosen. He it was who gave to the Jews their liturgy and ceremonial. He—as was right—deter- mined the way in which His creatures should adore Him.
