    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.

  • Black Country Secondary Schools, Published in 2008, 2009 and 2010, Were Well Received
    Contents Introduction 3 Using the Families of Schools document 7 Black Country in context 11 Family pages 16 Contextual family pages 34 Annex 1 – What it all means: footnotes and explanations 39 Annex 2 – School contact details 45 2 Introduction 1. Families of Schools: the fourth edition The first three editions of Families of Schools for Black Country Secondary schools, published in 2008, 2009 and 2010, were well received. We have been working with schools and education professionals across the Black Country to develop this fourth edition for 2011. As with previous years, this edition includes GCSE results with and without English and maths, a Contextual Value Added (CVA) measure and contextual families focusing on English as an Additional Language (EAL) and mobility. 2. How have families been grouped? Schools are grouped into families based on an average of prior attainment data and context data. Prior attainment data is the Average Key Stage 2 (KS2) Point Score (APS) for all pupils in Year 7 to Year 11 matched to Key Stage 4 data. Context data includes: • Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) data, calculated by linking individual pupil postcodes to IDACI data and compiling an average figure for each school1. • The proportion of pupils eligible to receive Free School Meals (FSM). • The IDACI and FSM school averages are combined to give an overall indicator for the School Environment (SE). • The percentage of pupils whose first language is known or believed to be other than English (EAL). • A mobility measure, defined as the percentage of pupils in Year 10 or Year 11 who have joined the school within the last 2 years (L2Y).
