  • Artweeks 10.2.Pages
    saturday 8 - monday 31 may 2010 free guide www.artweeks.org Sponsored by Welcome to Artweeks 2010 2010 is set to be the biggest Artweeks ever with 474 sites exhibiting during the Festival. Artweeks plays a vital role in bringing artists and art enthusiasts and buyers together across the county. Our goal this year is to bring new audiences to the work of Oxfordshire's creative community, those who might find the idea of going to a gallery daunting. By visiting an open studio and talking to the artist you get to understand the creative process, the way they have tried to convey their ideas and the effect they have created. Most of the works on view are for sale and you'll find some originals at prices that you might pay for a mass-produced copy in a quality department store. Artweeks is all about involvement and originality; by simply going along to a couple of studios and seeing what is on offer, you too add to the vibrancy of Oxfordshire's biggest arts festival. See it. Love it. Buy it.

  • 2Nd July 2018 Dear Parents Consultation
    Oxford Road Kidlington Oxfordshire OX5 2NT Tel. 01865 374971 Fax. 01865 841029 Email: [email protected] Website: www.gosford-hill.oxon.sch.uk Headteacher: Nigel Sellars BMus Hons, LGSM 2nd July 2018 Dear Parents Consultation to join Multi-Academy Trust You may be aware that in recent years there have been significant changes to the educational landscape. These changes continue and, as a school, we have been working hard to find the right solution for us in this shifting context. We want to make sure that we take the right decisions to secure the best future for our students, their families and our local community. We are also aware that the DfE have an expectation that all schools should become part of larger groups and trusts, or Multi Academy Trusts (MATs). Currently, we are one of the few remaining stand-alone secondary academies (SAs) left in Oxfordshire. At this present moment, we have the freedom and autonomy to choose the next steps of our journey ourselves. We want these steps to take us in a direction that will allow us to build on our many existing strengths while maintaining our own, unique identity. Following careful research and investigation into the wide range of options that may be available to us, the Governing Body has begun a dialogue with one local MAT, River Learning Trust (RLT). The Governors would like to begin a formal consultation process with all stakeholders about our future and the proposal that we should consider joining this particular organisation. More details about the trust can be found at http://www.riverlearningtrust.org/information/.

  • Existing Academy: Cheney School URN: 139146 Predecessor School: Cheney School URN: 123253
    Existing academy: Cheney School URN: 139146 Predecessor school: Cheney School URN: 123253 Cheney Lane Headington Oxford OX3 7QH Academy conversion and predecessor schools Under the Academies Act 2010, schools may apply to the Secretary of State to convert to academy status. Such schools are known as academy converters. Upon conversion to academy status the existing school closes and a new school opens in its place. Although little may have changed, the academy converter is a new legal entity. Most academy converters have yet to have a section 5 inspection. However, to assist parents and other interested parties, information about, and the inspection history of the school which preceded the new academy are available here. It is important to note that, as the academy converter is a new school, which may not yet have been inspected, the inspection judgements of the predecessor school are not those of the new academy. However, the most recent inspection judgements of the predecessor school are taken into account by Ofsted for the purpose of scheduling the first inspection of the new academy converter. Some academy converters have replaced schools which were judged to be outstanding at their most recent Ofsted inspection. Under the Education Act 2011, most schools previously judged to be outstanding will be exempt from routine inspection. This means they will not be subject to inspection at regular intervals. However, three years after the predecessor school was last inspected it will be subject to Ofsted’s formal risk-assessment process, which may lead to an inspection. Finally, under section 8 of the Education Act 2005 the Chief Inspector may decide to inspect any school in England if requested to do so by the Secretary of State, or if, based on information received by Ofsted, he judges that a school would benefit from inspection.
