If there are fewer applications than places available, all applicants will be offered a place. If there are more applications than places available, the criteria outlined below will be used to allocate applications. Rule 1 Looked After Children Children looked after and children who were previously looked after, but ceased to be so because they were adopted (or became subject to a child’s arrangements order or a special guardianship order). Rule 2 Medical or Social Children for whom it can be demonstrated that they have a particular medical or social need to go to the school, which includes children previously abroad who were cared for by the state because he or she would not otherwise have been cared for adequately and subsequently adopted. A panel of HCC officers will determine whether the evidence provided is sufficiently compelling to meet the requirements for this rule. The evidence must relate specifically to the school applied for under Rule 2 and must clearly demonstrate why it is the only school that can meet the child’s needs. Rule 3 Sibling Children who have a sibling at the school at the time of application, unless the sibling is in the last year of the normal age-range of the school.

  • The Ice Age in North Hertfordshire
    The Ice Age in North Hertfordshire What do we mean by ‘the Ice Age’? Thinking about ‘the Ice Age’ brings up images of tundra, mammoths, Neanderthals and great sheets of ice across the landscape. This simple picture is wrong in many ways. Firstly, there have been many different ‘Ice Ages’ in the history of the earth. The most dramatic happened between 2.4 and 2.1 billion years ago, known as the Huronian Glaciation. About the same time, earth’s atmosphere suddenly became rich in oxygen, and some scientists believe that the atmospheric changes reduced the temperature so much that the whole planet became covered in ice. 1: an Arctic ice sheet (© Youino Joe, USFWS, used under a Creative Commons licence) Another global cover of ice happened 650 million years ago when the first multi-celled animals were evolving. Geologists sometimes refer to this period as the ‘Snowball Earth’ and biologists know it as the Proterozoic. Temperatures were so low that the equator was as cold as present-day Antarctica. They began to rise again as concentrations of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere rose to about 13%, 350 times greater than today. Some carbon dioxide came from volcanic eruptions, but some was excreted by microbial life, which was beginning to diversify and increase in numbers. Neither of these Ice Ages is the one that dominates the popular imagination. Both happened many millions of years before life moved on to land. There were no humans, no mammals, no dinosaurs: none of the creatures familiar from The Flintstones. The period most people think about as the ‘real’ Ice Age is the geologists’ Pleistocene era, from more than two-and-a-half million years ago to the beginning of the Holocene, almost 12,000 years ago.

SAFETY NOTES Everyone attending Hertfordshire A.S.A. events must take all necessary steps to ensure their own safety and the safety of others. Anyone observing anything they consider to be a safety hazard must report it immediately to the Referee and/or a member of the pool staff. Everyone must familiarise themselves with the locations of the emergency exits, which are clearly marked. The floor areas leading to the emergency exits must be kept clear at all times. In the event of an incident or need for evacuation of the building, The Venue staff will take charge and direct people as necessary. The Learner Pool is unsupervised and as such is out of bounds at all times during the gala.
