To understand young peoples’ points of view, a survey based on the 2006 National Best Value Satisfaction Survey was designed, with specific questions pertinent to young people added. By comparing directly with the previous survey, evaluation of the council’s polices and strategies can be done and by comparing with the adult population, we can see differences in attitudes to the service offered. The survey also gives the Council valuable intelligence on the quality of life for young people and to help improve the quality of services available.

  • December 2017 Principal’S Welcome
    Newsletter December 2017 Principal’s Welcome A week is a long time in the life of a school. The snow has completely disappeared but this time last weekend I was glued to social media and the online weather forecast, trying to make sure that I’d got every available piece of information to help me decide about school closure. Regardless of the decision, there was one thing that would not be in doubt - there was always going to be somebody who would disagree. This has always been the case, but what is noticeably different now is the willingness with which some individuals rush to post their outrage online, including some who are old enough to know better. I guess I should see this as part of the territory, a challenge amongst many of being Principal of such a high-profile institution as AGS. I think I've learnt to deal with it pretty well, but it did bring home to me just how difficult it must be for some of our youngsters when they first enter the online world, unaware of its capacity for irrational and harmful content and the opportunities for people to comment without thinking. It’s been a sensible decision that in my professional capacity I stay away from Facebook, and don’t use WhatsApp - an app that has many useful features but whose overuse we are beginning to see increasingly associated with poor mental health due to the distress caused by over-sharing or sharing of inaccurate information. And that’s before we get into the inadvertent safeguarding risks of sharing information about a child with a group where you cannot be 100% certain of the background of everyone.

  • Ashlawn School Newsletter
    Newsletter Issue Date: ASHLAWN Friday 7 February 2020 Principal: Mrs S Evans SCHOOL Tel: 01788 573425 Email: [email protected] Website: www.ashlawn.org.uk Message from the Principal As part of the Year 12 work experience week I have enjoyed mentoring Siyanne Panchal who is interested in school leadership as a future career. As part of her programme, Siyanne has taken on some of the tasks that I would carry out on a weekly basis and I have invited her to write the Principal’s piece in the newsletter today. Siobhan Evans My Experience Shadowing Mrs Evans by Siyanne Panchal Over the past week, I have had the honour of completing my work experience placement shadowing Mrs Evans and learning about the role and responsibilities she holds. I’ve expressed previously that I am unsure about the path I will choose for my future, but one of my main choices at the moment is becoming a secondary school English teacher and working my way up to be involved in senior leadership. I have spent the last five days experiencing many different aspects of being a Principal and the various features of the job of which I was previously unaware. I have been involved in different scenarios this week that have all taught me distinctive skills and have given me a more informed perspective on how these should be appropriately resolved. One example of this was when I led staff briefing. I don’t consider myself necessarily shy but on this occasion I was definitely nervous and apprehensive as I was going to address the majority of the teaching staff.

  • Alcester Grammar School Admissions Policy 2016
    Alcester Grammar School Admissions Policy 2016 1. General 1.1. Alcester Grammar School is a co-educational 11-18 maintained selective academy, designated as a grammar school under Section 104 of the School Standards and Framework Act (1998). The Governing Body of the Academy Trust is the Admission Authority and as such has formal responsibility for determining admission arrangements. 1.2. This policy has been drawn up to meet the requirements of the Department for Education School Admissions Code which came into force in December 2014. 2. Year 7 Entry 2.1. Introduction: Admission to this school in Year 7 will be determined by the school's oversubscription criteria and a child's performance in the Entrance Test (sometimes referred to as "the 11+" or "the selection test"). The Governing Body participates in Warwickshire County Council's co-ordinated admissions scheme for maintained secondary schools, and Warwickshire County Council's Admissions Service (Warwickshire Admissions) is contracted to administer the Year 7 admissions policy and procedures on the school’s behalf. For 2016, the Governors have determined, in line with the Admissions Code (2014), that the Published Admission Number (PAN) in Year 7 will be 150. 2.2. Eligibility and Priority for Entry in Year 7 2.2.1. Children with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHC) or Statement of Special Educational Needs naming Alcester Grammar School will be admitted first, subject to their meeting the necessary academic entry requirements.

  • December 2018 Newsletter
    Newsletter December 2018 Principal’s Welcome At the time of writing this column it seems that our ruling party, Parliament, and the whole political process are in a degree of turmoil not seen for a very long time. There is a saying for circumstances such as these: “May you live in interesting times”. Some have claimed that to be an ancient Chinese curse, although a quick internet search suggest that it is a more modern invention. Nevertheless, I'm sure ancient Eastern sages looking for an appropriate proverb for our political masters would have struggled to come up with anything better. The curse of “interesting times” for education has certainly not gone away either. I know that some of you will have been following the BBC programme “School” and if you haven't seen it then I recommend you catch up with some of the episodes on iPlayer. What comes across most clearly is that schools which are well-run and which have a strong culture, history and ethos are always going to be in a significantly better position than those which seem to be constantly playing catch up. Part of that culture and ethos is parental support and expectations, and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the AGS parent body for their consistent and strong commitment to our values, standards and expectations. Having said that, this is no time for complacency. The overall funding of education remains a key concern for all of our schools and I think it's important that I share with you the following statistics: An 8% real terms cut to school budgets since 2010
