The values expressed within it; honesty, Mrs Isobel Nixon - Headmistress courage, endurance, tolerance, forgiveness and friendship are as important and relevant today, as they have ever been, and they are the same values that we strive to instil in our students today. They do not tarnish with age or fashion. It has been an exciting time and the merger with Bramcote School was, in itself, a historic moment. The combined histories of the schools form an integral part of Scarborough’s story and represent the best aspects of education for generations of young people. 2 horizons INTRODUCING... CHARLES ELLISON As I prepare to receive the baton of headship from Isobel there are a number of emotions: obvious excitement, a strong sense of responsibility to serve the community of the College to the best of my ability, a feeling of immediate belonging and a determination to make Scarborough College a true leader in British independent education.

The children enjoyed our ice week, singing along to Disney’s ‘Frozen’ sound track, and playing in our own engineering project; an igloo made out of plastic milk bottles. They chipped away at coloured ice, made a collage of Olaf, and dressed up in warm clothes in our very own Winter Wonderland. For Comic Relief this year, we all laughed at our Funny Faces Friday. The children had their faces painted, and then very bravely, the Little Owls staff submitted to having their faces painted by the children! We zoomed into the summer term with our transport topic, and got all geared up for the Tour de Yorkshire. The children made flags and enjoyed the day at one of our Little Owl’s Grandma’s house, where we had front row seats to see the race come past. We were all on our best behaviour when the police came to visit us, bringing their riot van for the children to explore. We took it in turns to sit in the back, and pretend to be taken away! On Wednesday 10 June, the sun shone down on our Teddy Bears’ Picnic on Deepdale playing fields. We were joined by lots of other local nurseries, and were thoroughly entertained, first by Magic Mike, and then by Kathy Seabrook. “All Aboard” called the Little Owls as we set off for an afternoon ride on the North Bay Miniature Railway. We sang our train song, screamed as we went through the tunnel, and then enjoyed juice and a biscuit as we listened to Joe Coates read one of his railway stories. Alongside all things transport, we have been growing our own stick insects from eggs. Some of the braver children (and staff!) have held ‘Big Twiggy’! The last two weeks of term were jam packed with fun. We had a delicious French breakfast, an energetic sports day, and for our leavers, a very special Graduation Fun Day. Good luck and farewell to our leavers who move on to ‘big school’, but we are looking forward to meeting lots of new Little Owls in September. Mrs Jackie Hunter Head of Little Owls Pre-School 4 Bramcote Junior School HEADMASTER’S REPORT As I sit writing my final Horizons report, I can recall all too clearly the children singing and shouting as they built dens in the woods, and collected logs and sticks to feed the fire on the As you will see from Horizons, the children have had a very busy two terms.

    Michael Burrows WHERE the LINE BREAKS where the line breaks_title pages.indd 2 7/10/20 1:10 pm Always the same dream. He’s still on the rock. The sun rising behind the wall of khaki-clad men who advance past him. The countless boots. The endless rifl es held at the same exact angle, tips of the bayonets rolling forward in a wave that extends as far as he can see, until they rise out of the trench, and another line takes their place. Scowling as they peer back at him. Actively running from him, distancing themselves from him as they jump up on the fi re step and clamber up the ladders, climbing up the sandbags, the cli wall, the wooden supports, their heads turned back to him with disgust in their eyes, pitying him, watching him blow his childish whistle before they step up and out into the unknown. And as the fi rst wave vanishes, the next line turns, and the same faces peer back at him, judging him, shaking their heads. And the next line. Shaking their heads. And the next. Each line turns and he sees the faces of the friends he signed up with, the boys he trained beside, the men he joked and drank and swore and dreamed with: Brennan, Stokes, Collopy, Richardson, Morrow, even Tom and Robbie. Sometimes Red. And sometimes Nugget. As they fade, the noise starts, seamlessly merging with the tick of his watch. No change in tempo, no increase in speed. The steady tak tak tak of the machine gun; the relentless, ruthless, repetitive, jarring tak tak tak of mechanical bursts that ring in his head when he lies down to sleep.

  • Report on the Second York Schools Science Quiz on Thursday 12 March, Thirteen Schools from in and Around York Came Together
    Report on the Second York Schools Science Quiz On Thursday 12 March, thirteen schools from in and around York came together for the second York Schools Science Quiz. Twenty two school teams competed along with four teacher teams (put together from the teachers who brought the pupils along from the various schools) for the trophies and prizes. Each team consisted of two Lower Sixth and two Fifth Form pupils or four Fifth Form pupils for those schools without Sixth Forms. The schools represented were Manor CE School, Canon Lee School, The Joseph Rowntree School, Huntington School, Archbishop Holgate’s School, Fulford School, All Saints School, Millthorpe School, St Peter’s School, Bootham School, The Mount School, Selby High School and Scarborough College. The event took place as part of the York ISSP and also the York Schools Ogden Partnership, with a large thank you to the Royal Society of Chemistry and the Institute of Physics for some of the prizes, the Rotary Club of York Vikings for the water bottles and the Ogden Trust for the 8 GB memory sticks and Amazon Voucher prizes. The quiz was put together and presented by Sarah McKie, who is the Head of Biology at St Peter’s School, and consisted of Biology, Chemistry and Physics rounds alongside an Observation Challenge and a Hitting the Headlines round amongst others. At the end of the quiz the teams waited with bated breath for the results to be announced. It turned out that three teams were tied for second place, so a tie breaker was needed to separate them.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
