Its purpose is to help schools see how others with similar intakes serve their pupils. Secondary Headteachers in the London, Black Country and Manchester Challenges had access to a similar resource and really valued it as helpful so, I hope you take the time to familiarise yourself with it. Schools in Birmingham face a number of challenges. They also boast an enormous collective pool of expert leaders and teachers. The purpose of this document is to point you towards similar schools facing similar circumstances with whom you can share practice and experiences. Whatever the problem, this document shows there are always schools to whom you can turn and this is a very important and powerful school improvement tool. We have grouped all Birmingham Secondary schools into families according to prior attainment and contextual data. You will find your school in one of these 8 families. I hope you use this document to develop and further strengthen your collaboration with other schools, and with your colleagues internally to bring about improvements for your pupils. Families of Schools played an integral part of the positive London story in recent years and I am confident it will help do the same for Birmingham. The successes we are trying to facilitate through BEP lie ultimately in your hands. I hope that this document will help contribute to that. Tracy Ruddle Director of Continuous School Improvement Birmingham Education Partnership 4 Introduction Background In 2016 we piloted a “Families of Schools” document for Birmingham focusing on key stage 2 which in turn was based on an older publication from 2008 that the DFE published. This being the Families of Schools reports for primary and secondary schools for the Black Country, London and Greater Manchester. Schools were allocated to families based on a number of factors including prior attainment, measures of deprivation and the proportion of children with English as an additional language. This enabled schools with statistically similar intakes to understand the size and nature of their attainment gap and provided the opportunity for schools to learn from the best performing school in each family. The reports were well received and subsequent reports were published in 2009, 2010 and 2011. Due to the success of the pilot, for 2017 we refreshed key stage 2 and produced a brand new sister document covering key stage 1. We now take the opportunity to expand further with this document being the first edition of “Families of Schools” for Birmingham focusing on key stage 4. This now means that the vast majority of mainstream schools within the city will now find themselves in at least one family group, some all through schools may even find themselves in three! However it is important to note that as the largest contributing “grouping” factor is prior attainment you may find your key stage 1, 2 and 4 families vary. How have the schools been grouped? Schools are grouped into families on the basis of a combination of an average of their key stage 4 children’s prior attainment and contextual data for pupils in year groups 7 to 11 obtained from the January census. The measures include: Prior attainment Income deprivation affecting children index (IDACI) Free school meal eligibility (FSM) English as an additional language (EAL) Mobility Using the methodology described at the end of this document an overall score for each school has been determined based on a specific weighting and the schools allocated to family groups. Note that it was decided that due to the smaller size of the families compared to the other key stages it was decided that we get the closet statistical match possible. Therefore not all family groups are the same size. This is explained at the end of the document. 5 Schools Included All mainstream state funded schools and academies which had a year 11 class for the academic year 2016 – 2017

  • Dear Parents/Carers a Message in Support of West Midlands Police. Police and Schools in the City Are Committed to Working Togeth
    Langley Walk, Birmingham B15 2EF t: 0121 647 2760 e: [email protected] www.city-birmingham.academy Headteacher: Andy Brant BSC Dear Parents/Carers A message in support of West Midlands Police. Police and schools in the city are committed to working together to protect our young people from becoming victims of knife and weapons crime. We use a range of tactics including educational inputs and in-school searches to ensure that students are well- informed about the consequences of carrying weapons, and identify those that continue to do so. It is important that the police, schools and families work together to protect young people. To do this, parents must be aware of the warning signs and talk to children about carrying weapons. The consequences of being found in possession of a knife are serious and long lasting, affecting education, employment and travel opportunities, but most crucially, life. Some young people carry weapons because they feel it will provide protection or increase the respect they are given by their friends, but the sad fact is that they are more likely to become victims of serious violence. Parents should also be aware that girls sometimes carry or store weapons for their boyfriends or other male friends because they believe they are less likely to be stopped by the police. Their reasons are often misguided loyalty or love, but it is still a crime if they are caught carrying a knife or other weapon. WARNING SIGNS These signs don’t always mean the worst is happening and could just be normal teenage behaviour: 1.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
