  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

  • How a Neuroscienti C Approach Transformed Our School (Sponsored)
    24/03/2020 Behaviour: how a neuroscientific approach can transform your school | Tes | Thrive Sponsored by thrive Sponsored How a neuroscientic approach transformed our school (sponsored) One head explains that an approach based on neuroscience has improved behaviour, cut exclusions and boosted wellbeing By Russell Parton 20 March 2019 - 15:42 When Tim Cook became headteacher of Liskeard Hillfort Primary in November 2015, he knew he had a tough job on his hands. The school, located in Cornwall with high levels of deprivation, had just come out of special measures. Pupils were frequently getting in trouble, with 36 exclusions in a single year. “It wasn't a path we could keep treading, and it wasn't morally what I believed in,” he explains. Now the school is far more popular – applications increased by 11 per cent in two years – and it has a “good” rating for personal development, behaviour and welfare, attendance is above the national average and exclusions are down (so far this year there has only been one). Cook attributes the turnaround in large part to the Thrive Approach®, a way of supporting social and emotional development based on neuroscience, attachment theory and child development. According to the schools that have adopted it, the method can improve https://www.tes.com/news/how-neuroscientific-approach-transformed-our-school-sponsored 1/8 24/03/2020 Behaviour: how a neuroscientific approach can transform your school | Tes | Thrive behaviour, reduce exclusions, raise academic attainment and boost wellbeing among staff and students. Thrive draws on evidence from neuroscientific research, which asserts that the brain’s ability to relate, love, learn and manage stress is largely dependent on neurological pathways formed in the first three years of life.

  • Proposal to Join the Athelstan Trust As Part of a Multi Academy Trust
    Proposal to join the Athelstan Trust as part of a Multi Academy Trust Consultation Consultation for all stakeholders learners, staff, parents/carers, community Sir William Romney’s School Key Dates: Consultation starts: 30th September 2019 Consultation ends: 4th November 2019 Deadline for support, views, questions and concerns: Stakeholder/Parent Information Evenings: 1. Engagement Forum: Wednesday 9th October (during Year 8 and 9 Information Evening) 2. Engagement Event: Wednesday 21st October at 6pm in the Main Hall 1 Frequently Asked Questions What is an Academy? An academy is an independent state school that is run by an Academy Trust, a legal body operating similarly to a charity. Whilst the academy is funded directly by the Government, it is no longer run by the Local Authority. This means that academies have more freedom and control over the school curriculum, hours, and term dates. The Academy Trust enters into an agreement with the Secretary of State for Education that sets out its responsibilities and accountabilities for the effective running of the academy. What is a Multi-Academy Trust? (MAT) A Multi-Academy Trust is a legal entity that governs a group of schools through a single set of trustees. It is set up by a group of schools, usually a local collaboration, that share a common ethos and vision. A MAT is accountable for all academies within the group. Academies are answerable to the Trustees and to the Department for Education (DfE) rather than to the Local Authority. A MAT is a charitable company, limited by guarantee. This means that it is registered at Companies House.

  • The Impact of Your Support for Bursaries
    The impact of your support for bursaries Thank you for your gift of a life-changing education An historic purpose Marlborough was founded to provide exceptional education for young people from all walks of life. Originally this included educating sons of clergy, who could not afford independent education, and orphaned children, for whom a Marlborough education would be truly transformational. The College was founded on an ethos of service to others and this principle still drives us today. An ambitious goal Marlborough College remains committed to ensuring that talented young people can benefit from the exceptional education we provide, regardless of their background. We also strongly believe that the whole school benefits from increased diversity. In the long -term our goal is for 30% of pupils at the College to receive financial assistance, providing a life-changing opportunity for those pupils whilst transforming the entire school community. ❝My two years at Marlborough were amongst the most enjoyable of my life, where I gained lifelong friends and developed into a stronger version of myself. The support was amazing throughout and I still can’t believe how lucky I was to be given the opportunity. ❞ Nadia Hassan (CO 2016-18) Undergraduate at Trinity College, Oxford “Gaining the Christopher Martin-Jenkins Bursary has provided so many enriching opportunities that previously I could only dream of.” Making a difference Marlborough College has always provided bursaries for talented young people who would otherwise be unable to attend the school. Hundreds of pupils have benefitted from the education we provide and have then gone onto make a difference in society.
