  • 1509 Catalyst A5.Indd
    Post Primary Education CATALYST PAMPHLET THIRTEEN Foreward Catalyst’s self-appointed task for more than a decade now has been to encourage the Church to be the Church, to examine ourselves to see how our Christian witness measures up to the gospel parameters. We feel that there are areas of life where the great biblical themes of justice and fairplay should be reiterated and realized; justice and fairplay especially for those who do not themselves have a strong voice, for those on the margins or at the bottom of society. One such arena is that of public education. Both in NI and throughout the UK there is much debate about the benefi ts and failures of the present situation and of the reforms which have been implemented over the past half century. There are many criticisms of the outcome of present-day education policy and a good deal of uncertainty about how we can improve it, including a fear that the latter state might be worse than the former. Pressure groups and special-interest groups abound, and often more heat than light is generated. It is our plea that there should be an honest and open examination of the issues, and who is better placed to contribute to this than the Christian churches? They pioneered education, motivated by the wonderful idea that all are children of God the Father who has endowed everyone, but everyone, with skills, talents, intellectual and other abilities. Respectfully we offer the following as points worthy of consideration especially by religiously motivated people: 1 The status quo post the 1944/48 Education Acts meant in NI students emerging from Grammar Schools with very good Senior Certifi cate (GCE) grades and A levels, (better than in GB).

  • Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015
    Irish Schools Athletics Champions 1916-2015 Updated June 15 2015 In February 1916 Irish Amateur Athletic Association (IAAA) circularised the principal schools in Ireland regarding the advisability of holding Schoolboys’ Championships. At the IAAA’s Annual General Meeting held on Monday 3rd April, 1916 in Wynne’s Hotel, Dublin, the Hon. Secretary, H.M. Finlay, referred to the falling off in the number of affiliated clubs due to the number of athletes serving in World War I and the need for efforts to keep the sport alive. Based on responses received from schools, the suggestion to hold Irish Schoolboys’ Championships in May was favourably considered by the AGM and the Race Committee of the IAAA was empowered to implement this project. Within a week a provisional programme for the inaugural athletics meeting to be held at Lansdowne Road on Saturday 20th May, 1916 had been published in newspapers, with 7 events and a relay for Senior and 4 events and a relay for Junior Boys. However, the championships were postponed "due to the rebellion" and were rescheduled to Saturday 23rd September, 1916, at Lansdowne Road. In order not to disappoint pupils who were eligible for the championships on the original date of the meeting, the Race Committee of the IAAA decided that “a bona fide schoolboy is one who has attended at least two classes daily at a recognised primary or secondary school for three months previous to 20 th May, except in case of sickness, and who was not attending any office or business”. The inaugural championships took place in ‘quite fine’ weather.

In percentages, the terms correspond as follows: More than 90% - almost/nearly all 75%-90% - most 50%-74% - a majority 30%-49% - a significant minority 10%-29% - a minority Less than 10% - very few/a small minority 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 In 2008, the Education and Training Inspectorate (Inspectorate) carried out a comprehensive evaluation of the use and impact of learning environments across the schools and wider education service. The evaluation included Learning Northern Ireland (LNI), which is the regional virtual online learning environment of the C2k managed service solution. While the evaluation report1 acknowledged the successful creation, uptake and use of the C2k managed service as a whole, and the outstanding, innovative work ongoing in some schools, it also highlighted some important shortcomings concerning the impact of learning environments in schools and the wider education service. 1.2 As part of the original evaluation, the

  • Belfast Royal Academy to the Education Committee at Stormont Re: the Education Bill
    SUBMISSION FROM THE BOARD OF GOVERNORS OF BELFAST ROYAL ACADEMY TO THE EDUCATION COMMITTEE AT STORMONT RE: THE EDUCATION BILL EXECUTIVE SUMMARY We welcome the opportunity to express our views and comments on the Bill during Committee Stage. While there are certain benefits in some of the changes proposed, including the amalgamation of the existing Education and Library Boards, there are many areas of concern, which directly threaten the future organisation and management of our school. As representatives of a Voluntary Grammar School, we are extremely concerned that the proposals contained in the Bill will dilute significantly the autonomy which has been enjoyed by schools such as this one for many years – in the case of this school for 225 years - and undermine the principle of academic selection. In an article in the Irish News on 6th October 2012, Professor Patrick Murphy, a commentator on educational matters and former Chief Executive of the Belfast Institute of Further and Higher Education, stated the following: “…Educationally, the big losers are the grammar schools which now enter the system’s mainstream administration for the first time. ESA will implement educational policy made by John O’Dowd”. We note that issues raised by schools in other sectors have been addressed in this Bill and that these schools have been given representation on the ESA Board, through Sectoral Bodies. Despite educating one third of post-primary pupils, the Voluntary Grammar Sector has not been given any representation on the ESA Board, which appears to be discriminatory. In summary, our key concerns are as follows: Loss of employing authority rights Loss of autonomy Lack of representation of Voluntary Grammar Schools on the ESA Board The impact of Area Planning on the Education Sector and the ultimate aim to introduce uniformity of education provision by means of this initiative and to abolish academic selection and reduce parental choice.

    Providing Inspection Services for Department of Education The Education and Training Inspectorate - Department for Employment and Learning Promoting Improvement Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure Education and Training Inspectorate Report of a Standard Inspection Portora Royal School Enniskillen Inspected: February 2008 CONTENTS Section Page 1. INTRODUCTION 1 2. THE QUALITY OF THE PUPILS’ WORK 3 3. SUMMARY OF MAIN FINDINGS 5 4. CONCLUSION 6 APPENDICES 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 CONTEXT Portora Royal School is situated in Enniskillen in County Fermanagh. It is a single-sex school catering for boys aged eleven to 18. Many of the pupils are drawn from the town and, increasingly, the majority from throughout Co Fermanagh. The enrolment has remained steady over the past five years at around 490 pupils. Approximately 5% of the pupils are entitled to free school meals and 13% of the year 8 to year 12 enrolment have been identified by the school as requiring additional support with aspects of their learning. Over the past five years approximately two-thirds of the intake obtained grade A in the Transfer Procedure. This year the school will celebrate the 400th anniversary of it being granted a Royal Charter. 1.2 FOCUS The inspection focused on leadership and management at all levels across the school and, in addition, on the provision for mathematics and information and communication technology (ICT). The provision for pastoral care and the arrangements for child protection were also evaluated. In September 2007, the school became a Specialist School for the Performing and Visual Arts (PVA). This specialism incorporates the subjects of art and design, drama, moving image arts (MIA) and music.

These latest plaques are spread across Ulster, from Newry in the south east, to the north west in Co Donegal. Apart from our busy plaque activities, the Circle has been hard at work enhancing the New Dictionary of Ulster Biography. All our work is unpaid, and Circle members meet regularly in committee every month, as fundraising and planning the plaques are always on-going activities, with the summer months often busy with events. I would like to thank my colleagues on the Circle committee for their support and their valued contributions throughout the year. A voluntary body like ours depends entirely on the continuing commitment of its committee members. On behalf of the Circle I would also like to record how much we appreciate the generosity of our funders: many of the City and District Councils, and those individuals, organisations, and businesses without whose help and support the Circle could not continue in its work commemorating and celebrating the many distinguished people from, or significantly connected with, Ulster, who are exemplified by those remembered this year.

  • Ulster Schools Athletics Champions 1949-2020
    Ulster Schools Athletics Champions 1949-2020 While inter school athletics was a regular feature of the summer term in schools in the North of Ireland after partition it was not until four years after the SeCond World War, in 1949, that the Ulster Grammar Schools held the first official Championships. These were, of Course, a male only preserve Covering three age groups and were dominated by a small number of schools Contesting 24 individual events of which Royal Belfast Academical Institution won 8 and Methodist College Belfast 6. By 1955 twenty four schools had entered the fray and the same year sixteen schools, nine from Belfast, took part in the inaugural Ulster Grammar Schools for Girls at the Queens University Sport Ground at Cherryvale. Co-incidentally it was the same year that the North of Ireland Womens Athletics Association held their first Championships. Competition was limited to 13 individual events, the longest of which was 220 yards. The throws were Confined to the Javelin for Seniors and the Cricket Ball for the two younger age groups. The first Cricket Ball Champion Bridget Robinson would go on to represent Northern Ireland in the Commonwealth Games in the Javelin. By 1967 the Championships had increased in popularity with 33 Grammar Schools represented in the Boy’s Championships. That year there were two Championship meetings held one designated the Ulster Grammar Schools and the other the Ulster SeCondary Schools although it has to be said that few athletes from non Grammar schools made much of an impact. The year 1968 will go down in history as the most significant in the history of school’s athletics in Ulster as it saw the Coming together of all of the separate organisations to form the Ulster SeCondary Schools Athletics Association catering for all boys and girls in Post Primary Education in Ulster.
