The Next Stop THE NEXT STOP A PARENT’S GUIDE TO THE MAIN BUS ROUTES SERVING SECONDARY SCHOOLS IN PLYMOUTH SEPTEMBER 2014 This leaflet is designed to help parents when deciding which secondary school they would prefer their child to attend in September 2014. Most opt for the local school or community college, often within easy walking distance of home, but others choose one outside the immediate area and may, therefore, need information about the availability of bus services. All Plymouth secondary schools and community colleges are listed in this leaflet, together with the main bus routes that stop at, or very near to, each one and the local areas that each route serves. (The route number and operator are coded – for example, PC 50 is a Plymouth Citybus route serving Tor Bridge High from the city centre via Prince Rock and Leigham). For further information about routes and times contact:- First Devon & Cornwall: Telephone 0845 600 1420 Plymouth Citybus: Telephone 0845 077 2223 Warning This leaflet lists bus routes as at September 2013, but these may be changed or even cancelled at any time. The leaflet cannot, therefore, be a firm guide as to the bus services available from September 2014 onwards, nor does it imply that pupils using these services would be entitled to free school transport. Free School Transport and Concessionary Fares The current position is that Plymouth pupils are not normally entitled to free transport to a mainstream secondary school because they all live within walking distance – defined in law as 3 miles by the shortest available walking route – of a designated comprehensive school. Free transport may be provided for exceptional reasons, for example, on medical grounds. Please note, that free travel is not provided to pupils attending a grammar school or a faith school. Free travel may be available for pupils who are eligible for free school meals or where the family is in receipt of the maximum level of Working Tax Credit. For further information please see page 13 of the Next Step Guide for Parents. Child fares are available to under 16’s at the driver’s discretion. If you look over 14 you may be asked to prove your age. Plymouth Citybus provides a range of reduced price season tickets which are available on line, from Shops displaying the Paypoint Logo, or from their Travel Centre in Royal Parade. Reduced price season tickets are available to anyone under the age of 19 and also anyone under the age of 23 in full time education.

  • Three Towns’ Steadily Merged Together on the Ground
    TTHREHREE TTOWNSOWNS The modern day City of Plymouth has grown out of three once separate neighbouring towns - Plymouth, East Stonehouse and Devonport. Nowadays, Stonehouse and Devonport exist as communities within greater Plymouth but, until 1914, each was distinct. Plymouth and East Stonehouse are the two oldest settlements. In contrast, Devonport is a relatively new town. It was established in the early 1700s, growing around the purpose built Royal Naval Dockyard at Plymouth Dock. By 1801, Dock, as this town was originally called, had a larger population than Plymouth. Throughout the 1800s, the ‘Three Towns’ steadily merged together on the ground. There seemed growing practical and economic reasons for them to unite as one. The idea of amalgamation was discussed in 1814, 1835 and 1888. The Mayor of Plymouth proposed a local conference on the subject in July 1902. However, it was the threat of the Great War, and the military’s need for streamlined communication, that finally saw the ‘Three Towns’ joined as one. ‘Cooke’s Stranger’s Guide or Pocket Plan’ of the ‘Three Towns’, c.1826-27 Image:Chris Robinson ‘Three Towns’ or One? In 1814, a meeting of the Port of Plymouth’s new Chamber larger orphanage was proposed closer to Plymouth. This of Commerce saw benefits in a commercial union of the caused a split among the Devonport and Stonehouse ‘Three Towns’. During the 1810s, Union Street was laid- interests because the existing building, near the Octagon down across Plymouth Marsh with union in mind, and on Union Street, better served all ‘Three Towns’. Plymouth’s original Theatre Royal was sited to attract At local authority level, in 1849, both Devonport (with customers from the other two towns.

  • Pupil Premium Review for 2015-2016
    Pupil Premium Review for 2015-2016 Background Summer 2014 The performance of disadvantaged students in Year 11 in the summer of 2014 was very disappointing. The Year 11 disadvantaged cohort in 2013/14 was small, significantly less able on entry than their peers (KS2 APS of 26 vs. 29 for non-disadvantaged) and over 50% of them had extremely challenging home circumstances and personal issues. We worked tirelessly with the group and used an extensive array of support strategies. This meant that despite the challenges we improved in several measures from the 2012/13 cohort – we increased the APS in both English and Maths (and narrowed the gaps with their peers), we increased the proportion of the cohort making 3 levels of progress in English and our Best 8 Value Added Score was higher than that of disadvantaged students nationally (991.1 vs. a national figure of 977). Additionally every single student went onto appropriate education, employment or training (0% NEETs). However, the performance of disadvantaged students in Maths was not acceptable and neither was the proportion achieving 5 A*-C inc. English and Maths. Summer 2015 The 2015 disadvantaged cohort was similar in ability (KS2 APS was 26) and again, a significant number had very challenging circumstances, including five students who joined us during KS4 after failing to succeed at other local secondary schools due to their extremely challenging behaviour. In February 2016, The Department for Education published the national school performance tables and we were delighted to see the exceptional progress made by our students. Overall progress for schools at this point was measured by a ‘Best 8 Value Added Score’.
