    Leeds City College HE Strategy 2015-18 (Student & Staff consultation September 2015) 1 Higher Education Strategy Leeds City College 1. This document outlines the HE Strategy for the development and delivery of all Higher Education within the Leeds City College which became a reality on the 1st April 2009. Staff and students of Leeds College of Technology, Leeds Thomas Danby College and Park Lane College Leeds and Keighley merged to form what will be one of the biggest colleges in the country. On 1 August 2011 Joseph Priestley merged with the College and a strategic alliance was formed with Leeds College of Music. The new college has 50,000+ students and a turnover of £80m a year. 2. The Higher Education Strategy builds on the long and successful legacies that Park Lane College, Leeds College of Technology, Leeds Thomas Danby and now Joseph Priestley and Leeds College of Music bring to Leeds City College. This provides a firm foundation from which the College can make a real difference locally, regionally and nationally. Leeds City College is committed to being one of which all students and partners can be proud and one that will provide the highest quality education for students, employers and the wider community. 3. Our mission is: To be recognised as an exceptional and responsive College providing life changing skills and experiences for individuals, businesses and communities. 4. Higher Education is a significant aspect of the mission of the College.

  • Annual Report to Parents and Governors on the Special Educational Needs & Disability Policy
    ANNUAL REPORT TO PARENTS AND GOVERNORS ON THE SPECIAL EDUCATIONAL NEEDS & DISABILITY POLICY Schools have a duty to report to parents on the provision for SEND. Students with special educational needs have learning difficulties and disabilities that make it harder for them to learn than most students of the same age. These students may need extra or different help from that given to other students of the same age. The SEND Code of Practice (2014) lies at the heart of the Academy’s SEND policy and sets out the processes and procedures that all organisations should follow to meet the needs of students. The Code describes a graduated approach which recognises that students learn in different ways and can have different kinds of SEN. At Woodkirk Academy students may be on the SEND register as requiring “Additional Support”. This is so step-by-step support can be put in place or specialist expertise can be sought to help the students overcome difficulties. Students who have more complex needs may have a Education & Healthcare Plan (EHC Plan). The Education & Healthcare Plans (EHC Plans) came into force in September 2014, and have replaced Statements. Key Personnel SENDCo S Blight SEND Governor R Aiston Policies The academy’s SEND policy was amended in September 2014 in line with the new SEND Code of Practice (2014). The policy is reviewed annually and follows the format of all academy policies. Number of students as identified on the SEND register - September 2017 (please be aware that numbers on register change throughout the year) As of September 2017 (totals are changeable throughout the year) Year Additional Support Statement/EHCP Total Year 7 13 2 15 Year 8 14 3 17 Year 9 18 2 20 Year 10 13 0 13 Year 11 17 0 17 Year 12 5 1 6 Year 13 5 0 5 Total 85 8 93 % of Academy Roll 4.5% 0.42% 4.96% National Average 10.5% 1.6% 1875 students on roll 10.5% of pupils in secondary academies have special educational needs, compared to 10.7% in all state funded secondary schools.
