New Academy Opens in Nottingham Pdf Download

New Academy opens in Nottingham Today, a new school, The Wells Academy, is opening its doors to Nottingham pupils for the first time. The Academy, sponsored by Greenwood Academies Trust, is located in the Mapperley area of Nottingham and will provide an enriching educational experience for pupils in years 11-16. Following the de-merger of Nottingham Academy’s Ransom Road Campus, also sponsored by the Trust, The Wells Academy will welcome pupils and staff to the same site but as a new standalone academy. The plans, approved by the Department for Education, will enable the delivery of a more bespoke curriculum that is tailored to the needs of the local community. The Academy will also welcome Mr Marcus Shepherd as Principal, who successfully led the former Ransom Road Campus and has a strong record of driving improvements and creating a positive and inclusive teaching and learning environment. Marcus Shepherd, Principal of The Wells Academy said: “It has been my great pleasure to lead the opening of the new academy for the last 12 months and develop the strong vision and ethos which will drive us forward. “Re-opening this school as a new academy has given us the opportunity to introduce our new mission and values of kindness, resilience and greatness that will help raise our standards even further and empower each and every pupil to go on and achieve greatness. “Our ambition is to become a leading school for both pupil care and academic success and I would like to take this opportunity to thank the staff and Trust for their support over the past 12 months and providing our school community with such a positive start.” Wayne Norrie, Chief Executive of Greenwood Academies Trust said: “Mr Shepherd and all the staff have been instrumental in transforming and developing this new academy and I am extremely grateful for their continued efforts and support. “I am delighted to officially welcome The Wells Academy to the Trust and look forward to continuing to work alongside the Academy and its Advisory Council to ensure all pupils receive the very best education possible”.

Open Letter to Gavin Williamson, Secretary of State for Education
The Rt Hon Gavin Williamson MP Secretary of State for Education Department for Education 20 Great Smith Street Westminster London, SW1P 3BT 6th July 2020 Dear Mr Williamson, This September, 800,000 young people will be leaving schools, colleges and universities, hoping to join the labour market. In addition, many young people that were due to head to university this year are considering withdrawing due to Covid-19. With 8.4 million people already furloughed and uncertain about their futures, it is likely that young people with little work experience behind them will face unprecedented struggles in the labour market. The quality of career education and guidance in schools and colleges has been improving in recent years. Nonetheless, Covid-19 and the lockdown add additional barriers to delivering career education and guidance in schools and other education settings. Meanwhile those young people who are not in education have very limited access to career guidance and career guidance services for adults are increasingly stretched. We are therefore calling on the Government to publicly commit to a Career Guidance Guarantee so that everyone aged 16-19 in an education setting, those leaving the education system, those who are already NEET, and adults who are unemployed, will have access to quality personal career guidance to help them move them on to further education destinations, employment or to additional training and apprenticeships. High quality career education and guidance, including the opportunity to speak one-to-one with a careers professional, is now more important than ever in preparing young people for the world of work, supporting adults to manage career transitions and better aligning careers aspirations with labour market demand.

Page 14 & 15 – Useful Websites and Where To Seek Further Support Since 2013, the Raising of the Participation Age law has stated that young people must be in some form of ‘education or training’ until they are 18. This can include: Full‐Time Study – this could be a qualification taken at a sixth form, college or training provider, totalling 540 hours of learning time per year, or around 18 hours per week. Apprenticeships – this involves working for an employer while studying for a qualification as part of your training. Usually, work makes up 80% of an apprenticeship and at least 20% (or one day a week) should be dedicated to studying. Traineeships – this is an option for students who would like to do an apprenticeship but may not have the experience, skills or qualifications to do so yet. Traineeships can last up to six months and involve a work placement, Maths and English qualifications and support with finding an apprenticeship. Part‐Time Study with Employment or Volunteering – this could be working in a full‐time job (classed as any work that takes place over more than two months and is over 20 hours per week) or volunteering (again, over 20 hours per week) while studying part‐ time at a college or training provider (totalling 280 hours of learning per year).
