  • Banbury and Bicester College
    Sharing Innovative Approaches to Delivering 16-19 Study Programme Principles Banbury and Bicester College Enterprise and Employability “At the heart of our model for Study Programmes is the development of employability skills through the learning company concept.” Rose Turner, Principal Banbury and Bicester College is part of Activate Learning1, a group which combines secondary, further and higher education along with workforce training, commercial business and social enterprise. The Activate Learning group was formed in September 2013, following the merger of Oxford and Cherwell Valley College, and Reading College in 2010. The group comprises Banbury and Bicester College, City of Oxford College, Reading College and Activate Enterprise. Activate Learning has a chief executive officer; each college has a principal and Activate Enterprise a director. In 2012/13 the three colleges recruited around 14,500 learners, two thirds of whom were adults on part-time courses. Most learners, currently, are on foundation and intermediate programmes and the group have around 1,800 apprentices in five subject areas. Oxfordshire and Berkshire are affluent counties with rates of unemployment below national averages. However, across both counties, there are areas of educational and social deprivation and the profile of learners attending the colleges reflects this. GCSE attainment in local secondary schools is broadly at, or just below, national averages, and many learners come to study and train at the colleges with attainment below national averages. The proportion of the population of Oxfordshire and Berkshire from minority ethnic backgrounds varies from around 25% in Reading to below 5% in Banbury and Bicester. However, the proportion of learners from minority ethnic backgrounds in the colleges matches or exceeds these local proportions.

  • Clifton Past and Present
    Clifton Past and Present L.E. Gardner, 1955 Clifton, as its name would imply, stands on the side of a hill – ‘tun’ or ‘ton’ being an old Saxon word denoting an enclosure. In the days before the Norman Conquest, mills were grinding corn for daily bread and Clifton Mill was no exception. Although there is no actual mention by name in the Domesday Survey, Bishop Odo is listed as holding, among other hides and meadows and ploughs, ‘Three Mills of forty one shillings and one hundred ells, in Dadintone’. (According to the Rev. Marshall, an ‘ell’ is a measure of water.) It is quite safe to assume that Clifton Mill was one of these, for the Rev. Marshall, who studied the particulars carefully, writes, ‘The admeasurement assigned for Dadintone (in the survey) comprised, as it would seem, the entire area of the parish, including the two outlying townships’. The earliest mention of the village is in 1271 when Philip Basset, Baron of Wycomb, who died in 1271, gave to the ‘Prior and Convent of St Edbury at Bicester, lands he had of the gift of Roger de Stampford in Cliftone, Heentone and Dadyngtone in Oxfordshire’. Another mention of Clifton is in 1329. On April 12th 1329, King Edward III granted a ‘Charter in behalf of Henry, Bishop of Lincoln and his successors, that they shall have free warren in all their demesne, lands of Bannebury, Cropperze, etc. etc. and Clyfton’. In 1424 the Prior and Bursar of the Convent of Burchester (Bicester) acknowledged the receipt of thirty-seven pounds eight shillings ‘for rent in Dadington, Clyfton and Hampton’.

  • Kirtlington Quarry: Its History and Geology and the Search for Early
    Kirtlington Quarry: its history and geology and the search for early mammals Eric F Freeman Abstract: Kirtlington Quarry, a well-known former exposure of Middle Jurassic rocks north of Oxford, was worked for cement production from 1907 until 1929. Important but largely unpublished research undertaken there at the time by Charles J. Bayzand, a museum assistant and geological lecturer, is placed in the context of better known work by M. Odling and W.J. Arkell, his contemporaries at Oxford University. When integrated with the quarry’s industrial archaeology and growth, as reconstructed from old maps and cement production records, Bayzand’s work suggests that a sediment rich in mammal and other microvertebrate fossils, the Kirtlington Mammal Bed, was once extensively exposed, but went unrecognised, and had been largely quarried away prior to its eventual discovery in 1974. Augmented by more recent work, the old research by Bayzand, Odling and Arkell allows the palaeoecology of the Mammal Bed to be modelled, including coastal dune-fields and mammal remains from the faecal debris of theropod dinosaurs. Since the days of Robert Plot (1640–1696), and his were found at the junction between two of the classic Natural History of Oxford-Shire, the area to the north Middle Jurassic rock units named by William Smith, of Oxford (Fig. 1), with its former profusion of quarries the Forest Marble and the Great Oolite. The bones were in highly fossiliferous Jurassic strata, and its proximity acquired by the Oxford University Museum, which had to the learned folk of Oxford University, has played an been opened in 1857, with William Smith’s nephew, important part in the development of geology.

From the Editor The Annual General Meeting, of the Village News (for organisations) was held in the Village Hall on Monday 4th March. Thank you to those who attended. The Village News was first set up in January, 1979 and was funded by the organisations so that it could go to every household in the village free of charge. However, once advertising was introduced that funding was no longer necessary, albeit the Parish Council still gives an annual grant – for which we are very grateful. I take this opportunity to thank our Treasurer, Ian Gedling, Ian has been involved with the Village News ever since it began and became the Treasurer in 1992. Also, we are all indebted to Liz Saunders who receives the e-mails and puts them into a suggested order before sending them to me to edit. She then sends them off to be printed. Many thanks also to our team of volunteers who turn out in all weathers to deliver the Village News.
