There are four main strategic documents which guide our actions and structure our interactions with employers and other stakeholders. These strategic documents are: The Education Improvement Plan (EIP) - this plan details our strategy for addressing the needs of young people in school aged 3-19. The Policy Statement on Skills (PSS) and Skills Implementation Plan (SIP) - both provide a focus on developing a sustainable and competitive skills system for Wales which incorporates Further and Higher Education, Work-based Learning, Regional Skills Partnerships, employers and their representative bodies. The Higher Education Policy Statement - this document details the support we will offer to learners in Universities aged over 18. The Adult and Community Learning Policy - this strategy is currently under review. There are common themes detailed within each of the above strategic documents which are in line with our commitments contained within the Programme for Government. These common themes are: Jobs and growth Equity and equality Financial sustainability International benchmarking Further, the CBI report ‘First Steps’ is a point of reference for the Department. The report sets out the business view on the reforms that are needed to make a successful education system, drawing on international examples and underpinned by a set of core principles.

  • The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: the Life Cycle of the Child Performer
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Humanities Faculty School of Music April 2016 \A person's a person, no matter how small." Dr. Seuss UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON Abstract Humanities Faculty School of Music Doctor of Philosophy The Seven Ages of Musical Theatre: The life cycle of the child performer by Lyndsay Barnbrook The purpose of the research reported here is to explore the part played by children in musical theatre. It aims to do this on two levels. It presents, for the first time, an historical analysis of involvement of children in theatre from its earliest beginnings to the current date. It is clear from this analysis that the role children played in the evolution of theatre has been both substantial and influential, with evidence of a number of recurring themes. Children have invariably made strong contributions in terms of music, dance and spectacle, and have been especially prominent in musical comedy. Playwrights have exploited precocity for comedic purposes, innocence to deliver difficult political messages in a way that is deemed acceptable by theatre audiences, and youth, recognising the emotional leverage to be obtained by appealing to more primitive instincts, notably sentimentality and, more contentiously, prurience. Every age has had its child prodigies and it is they who tend to make the headlines. However the influence of educators and entrepreneurs, artistically and commercially, is often underestimated. Although figures such as Wescott, Henslowe and Harris have been recognised by historians, some of the more recent architects of musical theatre, like Noreen Bush, are largely unheard of outside the theatre community.

  • Form in Sixteenth-Century Scottish Inventories: the Worst Sort of Bed Michael Pearce
    Beds of ‘Chapel’ Form in Sixteenth-Century Scottish Inventories: The Worst Sort of Bed michael pearce 1 Lit parement: a ‘sperver’ with a corona over a bed without a tester or celour. Bibliothèque de Genève, MS Fr. 165 fol. 4, Charles VI and Pierre Salmon, c.1415 Several sixteenth-century Scottish inventories mention ‘chapel beds’. A chapel bed was constructed at Dunfermline palace in November 1600 for Anne of Denmark prior to the birth of Charles I. This article proposes that these were beds provided with a sus - pended canopy with curtains which would surround any celour or tester (Figure 1). The ‘chapel’ was perhaps equivalent with the English ‘sperver’ or ‘sparver,’ a term not much used in Scotland in the sixteenth century, and more commonly found in older English texts of the late Middle Ages. The curtains of the medieval sperver hung from a rigid former, which could be hoop-like, a roundabout or corona, suspended from the chamber ceiling and perhaps principally constructed around a wooden cross like a simple chandelier.1 This canopy with its two curtains drawn back was given the name sperver from a fancied resemblance to a type of hawk, while also bearing a strong resemblance to a bell tent. A form of the word used in Scotland in 1474 — sparwart — is close to the etymological root of the word for hawk.2 The rigid former was called 1 Leland (1770), pp. 301–02. 2 Treasurer’s Accounts, vol. 1 (1877), p. 141; Eames (1977), pp. 75 and 83; see Oxford English Dictionary, ‘Sparver’ and ‘Sperver’.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 F 7377 POLITI 58^S8i ABSTRACT The British left has confronted a dilemma in forming its attitude towards Israel in the postwar period. The establishment of the Jewish state seemed to force people on the left to choose between competing nationalisms - Israeli, Arab and later, Palestinian. Over time, a number of key developments sharpened the dilemma. My central focus is the evolution of thinking about Israel and the Middle East in the British Labour Party. I examine four critical periods: the creation of Israel in 1948; the Suez war in 1956; the Arab-Israeli war of 1967 and the 1980s, covering mainly the Israeli invasion of Lebanon but also the intifada. In each case, entrenched attitudes were called into question and longer-term shifts were triggered in the aftermath.

This is an area of great natural beauty which attracts visitors and walkers from the surrounding areas. The churches have, in many ways, drawn closer together during the period of lockdown. The Associate Minister and a lay leader have led a weekly service of compline as well as signposting to other online services. The many who participated from across the benefice have begun to get to know each other better – a positive sign for the future of the benefice. The PCCs have engaged positively with deanery and diocesan advisers during the vacancy and have been open to exploring a more sustainable model of ministry for the future of the benefice. As you will see from the profile, they have identified a number of significant strengths, including their relationship with local schools and the level of support for the churches from within the village communities.
