Strong progress has continued on our journey of continuous improvement with the implementation of the Strategic Plan and it has again been a highly successful year for both schools. Victoria College achieved its best ever overall results at GCSE. Whilst A level results remained strong, they dropped to levels that existed before the recent high years and support arrangements have been put in place in some departments. Encouragingly, Victoria College was scored in the top 10% of some 3,000 UK schools, reflecting outstanding progress students made in achieving results better than their predictions.

Structure of the Island’s secondary education system 18. Conclusion 19. Appendix: 19.1 Evidence gathering Chairman’s Foreword Student suspension has been one of many school-related issues causing growing concern to public and professionals alike in recent years. Not just in terms of increasing numbers but also the more fundamental question as to what mix of social/educational/health problems may underlie this. Indeed, as was witnessed within the process of the Sub-Panel’s investigation, the issues provoked passionate opinions of the justification and effectiveness of suspension. It should thus be stated quite clearly at this point that the Sub-Panel entered into the suspension review with no preconceived ideas or ready-made solutions. For each member of the Sub-Panel, I know that I can add quite without fear of contradiction that this was very much a learning experience where our eventual collective findings and recommendations were based entirely on analysis of the experiences and evidence we were presented with.

However, P10 La Cloche continues to grow and grow, although I admit that the contents of the Making magazine were looking rather sparse at the beginning of January. Then, in the paper last fortnight and particularly in the last week, the copy material and flowers photographs were pouring in, much to my pleasure and relief .

  • Client Information Education in Jersey
    Client Information Education in Jersey Education Education provision in Jersey is excellent, ranging from nursery and pre-school classes through to the age of 18. Nursery education has to be funded privately but a selection of nurseries and pre-schools offer excellent provision to pre-school children. Most of the States Primary Schools have a pre-school attached. Children are eligible to start pre-school if they are 3 years old on 1 September. Forms can be obtained from your local school. All pre-school children are allowed 20 hours per week for free at an approved nursery (this can be attached to the school or a private establishment). Primary Education Each parish on the island has at least one local States primary school, with the exception of St Helier, which has six. The choice of school depends on your catchment area and how big the school is – some primary schools have one class per year and some have two classes per year. There is only one intake per year at the start of September and any child who is 4 years old on the 1 September will be eligible to join Reception.
