FROM THE HEADTEACHER erm has got off to a good start with pupils keen and ready to learn! Final exam results are still not with us as we still have a number T of remarks underway. Nevertheless I am pleased to let you know that our results at both GCSE and A level confirmed that we were the top performing school - state or private - in Bournemouth, Poole and Christchurch and the top performing state school in Dorset and Hampshire. A tremendous achievement! As the year progresses girls will be offered a variety of visits and experiences intended to enhance their learning. Year 8 pupils have already visited Hampton Court and completed science fieldwork at Blashford Lakes. Year 10 artists have visited Tate Modern and geographers have been out on fieldwork. Year 10 pupils enjoyed a business breakfast finding out about a whole variety of careers from local employers. Our Duke of Edinburgh Award groups have been out on expedition at weekends. This week we have our careers convention, held this year at our school, when over 50 professions and universities will be on hand to help girls plan for future study and careers.

After half term on Thursday 3rd November we will be holding our Sixth Form Open Evening. Although intended primarily for pupils and parents in year 11 we would also be pleased to welcome year 10 pupils and their parents. The evening runs from 6pm - 8.30pm. Come along at any time. There will be talks in the hall and also a subject fair with staff and students to help you start to make important decisions about post 16 study. May I wish all pupils and their families a restful half term break. We wish our groups going to Iceland, New York and Washington an excellent time. A reminder that Monday 31st October is an INSET day and school recommences on Tuesday 1st November. GOVERNOR NEWS irstly my congratulations on behalf of the governing body to students and staff on such an excellent set of exam results at both GCSE and A level. We can all be very proud of their F achievements. It was good to meet so many parents at our recent Meet the Tutor evenings for years 7 and 12 and at our PSA AGM and to hear how your daughters are settling in. It was especially pleasing that a number of parents made particular mention of the excellent pastoral care provided by the school. The governors are delighted that we have been able to make such good progress over the summer in improving the school environment with the creation of two new laboratories, a new Design Technology IT suite and extensive works to the heating and water system, making a real difference to the learning opportunities we provide for our pupils. You will have seen in the media a lot about government plans to expand grammar schools and to improve further social mobility by improving access to them. We are already committed to this aim as seen for example in our work developing positive links with our local primary schools. Governors recently decided also to go out to consultation to change our admission policy to give further preference to Bournemouth residents as the Poole grammar schools already do for Poole residents. Details of this consultation will be available after half term on our website.

YEAR 8 SHAKESPEARE DAY ith Shakespeare’s death being 400 years ago, some students find the bard’s work dull and often incomprehensible. Members of year 12 aimed to rectify this, organising and hosting a day of workshops and group performances for all of year 8. Packed into D1 on W the July 12th, the day was kicked off with separation into groups and an introduction to a selection of some of Shakespeare’s most famous plays. Each group then moved to separate rooms where a team of sixth form volunteers led a number of different activities based around one of six plays, including Antony and Cleopatra, Macbeth, Othello, King Lear, Romeo and Juliet and The Tempest. These activities gave the year 8’s enough understanding to produce their own interpretation of the plays, combining dance, artistic and musical talents learnt both in lessons and through extra-curricular activities. These interpretations were presented to the whole year group in the afternoon and a competitive element was introduced through the addition of a chocolate prize. The English department, who kindly supported the event, judged the presentations, with a clear winner being chosen. The witty and innovative modern day interpretation of Antony and Cleopatra included rap music and a spectacular dance off between a Roman nightclub and an Egyptian pub. The day could not have been put on without the year 12 organisers and the help and support of the English and Performing Arts departments, with special thanks going to Mrs Burdett. A thoroughly enjoyable day was had by all. By Jack Searle and Leah Robb PERFORMING ARTS BOURNEMOUTH ‘ARTS BY THE SEA’ FESTIVAL Rhianydd Davies (11A) and Naomi Leigh (10C) entered the ‘Call for Scores’ composition competition and had their piece ‘Song of the Sea’ selected for a workshop and performance by the Kokoro, the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra New Music Group. This was a competition for students up to the age of 18 and Rhianydd and Naomi did extremely well to have their music chosen for this performance.

  • Admission to Year 7 Or Year 9 2021 a Guide for Parents and Carers
    Admission to Year 7 or Year 9 2021 A Guide for Parents and Carers This guide contains information to help you apply for a school place in Year 7 or Year 9 (secondary schools, studio schools and schools with an additional point of entry at Year 7 or Year 9) You can also visit our website: bcpcouncil.gov.uk/schooladmissions Introduction Introduction Welcome to our guidebook for parents and carers which has been designed to help you find the right school for your child whether your child is starting at a Secondary or Studio school, or moving school during the 2021-22 school year. It outlines what information we need from you, and what you can expect in return from us. Across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole we have 96 schools. The Council works in close partnership with them. The aspirations for our area are ambitious and include investing in our children and young people and enabling access to high quality education. We understand that moving up to Secondary or Studio school is an exciting experience for both children and parents. However, this transition can also be a challenging time for all as decisions are made about which schools to apply for - with this process then followed by the inevitable and anxious wait to see if the application has been successful. Similar to other areas, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council has experienced increased demand for school places due to rising birth rates and movement of families. We have adopted an overall strategy for the provision of school places which includes looking at options for additional capacity at existing schools and new school provision.

  • Bournemouth School for Girls Determined Admissions Policy 2019-20
    AAAdmissionsAdmissions Policy for 2019 Entry The admissions policy of Bournemouth School for Girls aims to reflect the underlying ethos of the school which is to provide a selective education for girls aged 11-18, from the Borough of Bournemouth and the surrounding area. Bournemouth School for Girls is an Academy (having converted in August 2011), and is non-denominational. This policy has been developed to meet the requirements of the Department for Education School Admissions Code which came into force in December 2014. Admission to the school in Year 7 is in accordance with the agreed scheme for co-ordinated admission arrangements. Parents are able to state their school preference without it being taken into account by the school to which they are applying. Only girls who attain the required standards in the prescribed arrangements for selection by reference to high ability and aptitude will be eligible to be considered for admission to the school. Selection is by means of entrance tests other than for the Sixth Form for which the entry requirement is stated below. Girls are eligible to be considered for admission to Bournemouth School for Girls in Year 7 if they meet the required standard in the tests used and administered by the local selective schools. There is one set of selection tests for Bournemouth School for Girls, Bournemouth School, Parkstone Grammar School and Poole Grammar School (the “Consortium”). This will save children whose parents wish to be considered for admission to more than one selective school in the Consortium from taking multiple tests for those schools.
