Our Lord Jesus Christ said: “The first commandment is this: you shall love the lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul with all your mind, and with all your strengths. The second is this: Love your neighbour as yourself. There is no other commandment greater than these.” Our Aims:- We believe education is a partnership between parents, teachers and children and that only with co-operation, mutual support and respect can we develop each child’s potential to the full - academically, socially and morally. It is our intention to create a caring and happy atmosphere in which the children and teachers can work purposefully and effectively and one in which children feel welcomed and safe. We provide a Christian environment in which the children are nurtured and encouraged to develop into thoughtful and considerate people, with respect for themselves, each other and the environment. We expect children to behave well, demonstrate manners and to work hard to achieve their potential. To this end, we provide a wide range of stimulating and interesting activities to motivate children. We offer all children the opportunity to progess at their level, regardless of learning, emotional or physical difficulties or their race or gender. We believe that a sound education while in primary school is an essential prerequisite for developing life long learners. It is, however, important that knowledge in any subject is based upon real understanding. Through meaningful learning and relevant and balanced teaching, we hope to produce well rounded learners who demonstrate independence, initiative and self-discipline. Endeavour and both personal and collective achievement ian praises and shared among all pupils, staff (teaching and non-teaching), parents, Governors and the communiry of the school. Our School Christian Values Christian values are very important in school. Many of our activities are built on core values. We attend Church four or five times during the year and some of these services are built around the Harvest, Christmas, Easter, and Ascension. Many of these services are school led in which case all children take a full part. Some are led by a Rector with a focus upon the pupils. There is a daily Collective Workshop when a special value is selected for each half-term and presentations are built upon these. We have a Collective Worship Group which consists of five pupils who often take a lead in the assemblies. Sometimes visitors spend a day doing a work- shop on a particular value. Christian values are taught to everyone and this draws pupils together resulting in a warm and happy atmosphere. Our School Badsworth School located in the heart of Badsworth village, is a one form entry primary school, priding itself on providing a loving, happy Christian environment, where children feel welcomed and safe, encouraging them to learn.

  • Wakefield, West Riding: the Economy of a Yorkshire Manor
    WAKEFIELD, WEST RIDING: THE ECONOMY OF A YORKSHIRE MANOR By BRUCE A.

I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • South East Statistics, Charts and Maps Describing Wakefield's Area Working Areas
    InstantAtlas™ Server 6 Wakefield Seven Area Profile Selection: South East Statistics, charts and maps describing Wakefield's Area Working areas. Introduction A wide variety of social, economic and cultural conditions exist across the Wakefield district, and these combine to create a patchwork of distinctive communities and neighbourhoods. These differences may prompt agencies to deliver services in particular ways and the priorities for local people in one area may be different to those of people living in another area. The Wakefield Together area working model has been developed to reflect and address the differences that exist across the district. For the purposes of area working, the district is divided into seven areas: Castleford; Normanton and Featherstone; Pontefract and Knottingley; South East; Wakefield Central; Wakefield North West; and Wakefield Rural. Some of the seven areas also include ‘priority neighbourhoods’ where intelligence suggests that specific targeted support is required. There are 12 priority neighbourhoods in the district overall. The Council’s Performance and Intelligence Team, collaborating with partners, has developed a set of more detailed reports to focus on each of the seven areas in turn. This report focuses on the South East area. The aim of the report is to help people understand local conditions and the changes that occur over time. The report draws on both quantitative and qualitative information from a wide range of sources – both national and local. Profile created: 9/1/2017 Key Points Population Profile The proportion of people satisfied with their local area as a place to live has increased significantly recently. The age profile of the population is similar to the district average and has aged over the past 10 years - older people now make up a higher proportion of the population.

The state sector significantly reduced or dropped careers advice when budget cuts had to be made a few years ago. All of this and our renowned pastoral care differentiates us from local schools and colleges; the opportunities that stem from this give our pupils an advantage that cannot be claimed by other schools. Academic excellence is important, and our records show that pupils do very well here: most go on to their first choice at Russell Group Universities. Above all, we support our students’ ambitions, and everyone is supported equally, whether aspirations are towards apprenticeships or Oxbridge entry. This is a school where relationships between staff and pupils are strong, which assists learning. Not surprisingly, research shows that an environment that is conducive to learning is an environment where pupils feel valued, secure, and which builds self-esteem.
