    SUMMER 2016: ISSUE 40 Thank you for taking the time to catch up with news of the old school, and with each other. May I also express my sincere thanks to Lucy Sheehan for the work she does to keep the College and our alumni in contact with each other, and also to Nick Henderson as the President of the OA Society. Nick and I have been discussing ways in which the College and OAs can work more closely together, to ensure that OAs are able to stay in contact with each other as well as with the College.

Ardingly Motors Tributes Welcome This year we enjoyed a vibrant OA Day on Sunday 26th June. Inspired by Mark Keatley Palmer, OAs of all vintages drove into the College with cars of similar or even more ancient vintage. For this and future years we merged OA Day with the Companions’ Day – the Companions being former staff. This led to many surprise reunions, as teachers realised that their pupils of yesteryear had grown into responsible middle age, and OAs realised that their teachers might have been human after all.

  • Accepted Schools
    Department for Education Bishopsgate House Feethams Darlington, DL1 5QE Email enquiry form: www.gov.uk/government/organisations/ department-for-education Mr M Henderson By email 22 January 2021 Dear Mr Henderson I am responding to your email of 12 January requesting information about participation in the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS) by independent schools. I have dealt with your request for data under the Freedom of Information (FOI) Act 2000. You asked: …Could you please provide me with the names of all Independent Schools who have to date notified Teachers’ Pensions of their intention to withdraw from the Teachers’ Pension Scheme (TPS). Following clarification of the timeframe for which the data is required, the current list of independent schools that have given formal notification to leave the TPS since 1 September 2018 is set out in the annex. The table contains the names of the schools and each school’s departmental establishment code which is the code used by both the department and Teachers’ Pensions (TP) in administering the TPS on behalf of the department. You can use the establishment code to find information about the schools, including their location and contact details at https://get-information- schools.service.gov.uk/. You further clarified your request to provide the names of the schools who “are in the course of consultation with staff”. Any staff consultation would precede the notification to TP that they intend to leave the scheme. Schools are not required to notify either TP or the department about the details and timing of any consultation they may be undertaking, therefore the department does not hold this information.

    Westminster Abbey A SERVICE OF THANKSGIVING TO CELEBRATE THE 200 TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE BIRTH OF NATHANIEL WOODARD, 21 ST MARCH 1811 Thursday 24 th November 2011 Noon A M ESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT AND THE CHAIRMAN OF WOODARD SCHOOLS Shoreham in West Sussex, where Nathaniel Woodard founded his first schools in the 1840s, was a place of deprivation and lack of ambition. The founder’s initial vision was to meet the challenges of Victorian society with a Christian education provided for the middle classes at an affordable fee. As he moved northwards the trust he bequeathed to us declared the objective ‘to extend education to all classes.’ By the time of his death he had established eleven schools: no mean achievement for a single individual. Today Woodard Schools is a group of forty-six schools and academies, in both independent and maintained sectors. Concern for social justice remains embedded in our organisation: our pupils raise funds for a wide variety of charities selected by them; we are fully engaged in the Government’s Academy programme; many of our affiliated schools serve areas of significant twenty-first-century deprivation and low achievement; and, collectively, we are celebrating our Founder’s 200 th birthday year by raising funds to build a secondary school in Kenya, yet another area of deprivation, to which you are being asked to add your gifts today. Our motto Qui diligit Deum diligat et fratem suum finds its expression in the love and loyalty that binds our schools , and the people in them , together at every level giving them the means to achieve more for society through co-operation and collaboration.

    Towers News 2011 - 2012 The Towers Convent School, Henfield Road, Upper Beeding, West Sussex, BN44 3TF. Tel 01903 812185 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.towers.w-sussex.sch.uk Welcome Welcome to this edition of ‘Towers News’ which covers most events from Christmas half-term 2011 to Christmas half-term 2012. When I first took over the publication in 2003 it was a much smaller affair with fewer photographs but now ‘like Topsy’ it has grown and this, my last ‘Towers News’, is more like the size of my MA thesis except I do hope that it is far more interesting to read! I would like to thank everyone who has contributed articles and photographs with particular thanks to Jason Relf who has used his considerable IT skills to assemble the finished booklet and to Sister Mary Andrew for her invaluable proof-reading ability. Carole Baker MA Headmistress Celebrating the Harvest The theme of the Junior School Harvest festival in 2011 was ‘Colours’. The Nursery children made a beautiful rainbow altar frontal and also presented a very different rendition of ‘somewhere over the rainbow’, whilst modelling club produced some wonderful sunflowers for the chapel windowsills. Harvest colours were celebrated through songs including a few old favourites ‘Cauliflowers fluffy and cabbages green’ and ‘Colours of Day’. The choir and its various sub-sections sang a beautiful and most appropriate harvest hymn entitled ‘Give Thanks’. The remainder of the service contained some lovely elements: poems written by Year 6; an amusing enactment of ‘The Enormous Turnip’ by Reception and Year 1; a percussion piece called ‘Chinese Lanterns’ built on a pentatonic scale composed and performed by Year 4; Joseph and his multi-coloured dream-coat by Year 3; Year 4’s ‘Food Colours’ song which fitted in wonderfully with the theme and a beautifully choreographed angel fish dance presented by Year 2.

Endless horizons reflect the potential for all our pupils, the limitlessness of their aspiration. We think of ourselves as the ‘blue health school’, harnessing our coastal location to the benefit of our children’s physical and mental wellbeing. Enjoying the outdoors is part of our commitment to the whole of learning: a balance between cultural engagement, schoolwork, creative arts, sport and enjoying the company of friends. Eastbourne College has a tradition of innovation, enthusiastically leading UK education in the direction of balanced co-education, equally cherishing our boarders and day pupils, aiming for what we are proud to call healthy learning for the long term. We are fortunate to have an historic and inspiring school site and state-of-the art facilities. Even more importantly, we have a talented and committed body of staff who are expert in nurturing children so they develop the best of themselves. An educational community as purposeful and enthusiastic as Eastbourne College imbues pupils with a love of learning. The wellspring of our lifelong commitment to education is a belief that good learning soothes and enthuses, promoting children’s happiness, resilience, sophistication and integrity. Tom Lawson MA (Oxon) 3 INTRODUCTION TO EASTBOURNE COLLEGE CO-CURRICULAR The millennium globe which pupils pass daily to and from lessons is inscribed with the words of George Eliot: ‘Our deeds still travel with us from afar, And what we have been makes us what we are.’ These words underline the importance of the school experience.
