    Newsletter April 09.Pub

    Spring 2009 At the end of March Wayne Marland retired, and although we all wish him well, it was an event which was greeted with much sadness by everyone who worked with him. Wayne has worked for Lancashire for 23 years, coming to the advisory service from Edge Hill, where he lectured in Education for 8 years, after working as a teacher in Manchester. He has always been a staunch advocate for race equality, bringing to the debate a profound knowledge and understanding of the issues that made him the Race Equality touchstone for teachers, advisers and partners alike, and the lynchpin for policy and practice in Lancashire. Always suspicious of fashions and trends in education, Wayne's grasp of the historical, social, psychological and educational contexts for racism and inequality has allowed him to develop and support strategies and initiatives that affect real change, often ahead of national policy. Anyone who has been lucky enough to hear him speak at conferences and courses will know that he can be inspirational, challenging assumptions and attitudes and cutting through to the core purpose of education for a just society. His knowledge, commitment, passion and integrity will be greatly missed as will his sense of humour and his mischievous tendency to subversion. It has been a pleasure and a privilege to work with him and we wish him a long and happy retirement. Guided Talk what is it and why should we do it? Children learning English as an additional language need opportunities to hear language modelled and to have opportunities to rehearse language across the different curriculum areas before they are asked to write.

  • Careers at Parklands High School

    Careers at Parklands High School

    Careers at Parklands High School Careers Education, Advice and Guidance is a vital part of the overall education provided to pupils at Parklands. Careers education begins in Year 7 and continues through to Year 11, when pupils receive the most input. In 2013, The Gatsby Charitable Foundation commissioned Sir John Holman – Emeritus Professor of Chemistry at the University of York, senior education adviser and former headteacher – with setting out what career guidance in England would be like were it good by international standards. Good Career Guidance Through six international visits, analysis of good practice in English schools and a comprehensive review of current literature, a set of eight benchmarks covering different dimensions of good career guidance was identified. After surveying a sample of English schools and commissioning PwC to identify the costs of implementation, Sir John Holman made ten recommendations on how to improve the career guidance system. Below are the eight benchmarks he identified. The Benchmarks 1. A stable careers programme 2. Learning from career and labour market information 3. Addressing the needs of each pupil 4. Linking curriculum learning to careers 5. Encounters with employers and employees 6. Experiences of workplaces 7. Encounters with further and higher education 8. Personal guidance A stable careers programme Every school and college should have an embedded programme of careers education and guidance that is known and understood by pupils, parents, teachers, governors and employers. Learning from career and labour market information Every pupil, and their parents, should have access to good quality information about future study options and labour market opportunities.
