  • UCC Destination Data
    Destination Data Year 11 Gatsby Benchmark 8 – Personal Guidance The destination data provides evidence that students have received personal guidance that has enabled them to make sustainable choices for their Post-16 destination. UCC continues to enable young people to move onto further education of their choosing, including A Level Qualifications, NVQ Level Qualifications, Apprenticeships or Full Time Employment and Training. Despite the many challenges that that the students face when making post-16 choices, the guidance that is given to our students means that UCC consistently performs above the national average of 94%. The main challenge faced by UCC students is the lack of Sixth-Form at the college. Students are faced with the task of finding a Post-16 provider that offers the course they want to go onto. For some students, this can involve an additional 3 hours travelling each day, on top of their studies. This means that finding the right Post-16 provider is crucial for our students, heightening the importance of the personal guidance. On average, our students go on to 29 different providers each year. This includes apprenticeships and employment. When receiving personal guidance, students are able to explore all the options that are available to them. This is done through group work, small group work or 1:1 via our careers advisor. This is supplemented throughout the year with post-16 talks and visits.

  • Stamford Endowed Schools Scholarship Tapering - Subject: Interim (8Th Year) Review Keydecision Decision? Reference: No Summary
    Agenda Item 4 Policy and Scrutiny Open Report on behalf of Debbie Barnes, Executive Director of Children’s Services Report to: Children and Young People Scrutiny Committee Date: 06 March 2015 Stamford Endowed Schools Scholarship Tapering - Subject: Interim (8th Year) Review KeyDecision decision? Reference: No Summary: In 2006, Executive decided to taper the number of Lincolnshire County Council Scholarships to the Stamford Endowed Schools so that from 2012, there would be no new scholarships. It was also confirmed that there would continue to be four- yearly reviews of the educational provision for secondary school pupils in the Stamford area so that the decision could be revisited if necessary. This report is being presented in March 2015 to take account of the 2014 results which were published at the end of January. The principal objective of the review is to ascertain the extent to which suitable education is provided for academically able students in the Stamford area as the number of Lincolnshire County Council Scholarships to the Stamford Endowed Schools is reduced. Actions Required: The Children and Young People Scrutiny Committee is invited to receive the report as requested in 2006 and make comment. 1. Background 1.1 On 04 July 2006, a report was presented to the Executive of Lincolnshire County Council entitled “Review of Stamford Endowed Schools Scheme”. The report presented a number of recommendations. Executive resolved to adopt certain ones of these immediately and requested that further options be presented at a subsequent meeting. These were presented at its meeting of 18 July 2006. Subsequently it was resolved that “the decision of the Executive of 18 July in connection with “Review of Stamford Endowed Schools Scheme” (Decision Reference 00939) be upheld”.

  • Newsletter Issue 34 Newsletter February 2019
    Newsletter Issue 34 Newsletter February 2019 Bourne Academy is celebrating after being recognised by the Arts Council of England as a centre of excellence in the Arts receiving their top award— Arts Mark Platinum Executive Head Teacher’s Message Dear Parent/Guardian, As I approach the end of my first term in the role of Executive Head Teacher of the South Lincolnshire Academies Trust, it is a good time to reflect on all that has been achieved in January and February, in this my first Bourne Academy Newsletter. I feel extremely privileged to have been appointed into this role and those that work with me will know that I have the drive, determination and commitment to bring ongoing and even greater success to the school over the next few years, as the school moves into the next stage of development. The staff and students will already know that I have always fought hard against the definition of both of our SLATrust schools being ‘secondary modern’ in this selective area of education and I will continue to do this and will remain focussed on the students being the very best they can be! I am passionate about working with our young people, they are why I am in the job and my vision will always be centred on giving our young people the best opportunities, whether they want to be a rock star, astronaut, teacher, nurse or pilot. I am extremely lucky to be supported by a core team of strong governors and a robust, well established leadership team and teaching staff and I hope I will have the support of parents / carers whilst on our continued SLATrust journey.
