Although in Surrey, it is very close to the borders of Hampshire and West Sussex. There are currently 617 pupils on roll. The school is under- subscribed and, consequently, takes pupils from a fairly wide catchment area, including surrounding villages, and some late entrants who have experienced difficulties in their previous school. Whilst the intake to the school is comprehensive, pupils’ prior attainment is above average, although many children in the area attend independent schools or travel to neighbouring specialist and beacon schools. About a quarter of pupils are identified as having special educational needs, mostly with specific or moderate learning difficulties. This is above the national average. However, only about 2 per cent have statements, slightly below the national average, including a small number with emotional and behavioural difficulties. Almost all pupils come from a white UK heritage background, with only a handful speaking English as an additional language and none at the early stages of learning English. Less than seven per cent of pupils are eligible for free school meals, well below the national average of 18 per cent. About three quarters of pupils continue in education when they leave Post 16 in local colleges and sixth forms. The school has experienced difficulties in recruiting teachers. Six posts were covered by temporary teachers at the time of the inspection. HOW GOOD THE SCHOOL IS Woolmer Hill is a school with great potential. It has many strengths, not least in the commitment of staff and pupils to bring about improvements. There has been a significant improvement in the quality of teaching and learning, which is now good and led in 2001 to much improved results, well above national averages at both key stages. Weaknesses in aspects of the school’s leadership and management, issues related to inclusion and the school’s partnership with parents are recognised by the new head, who has a clear vision for the school, supported by an able Governing Body. Strategies for performance management and induction of teachers, and the provision for pupils’ personal development and for those with special educational needs are good. Relationships are very good. Teachers and pupils enjoy working in a happy school. The school gives sound value for money. WHAT THE SCHOOL DOES WELL · Enabled pupils, in 2001 to achieve high standards, both in National Curriculum tests and in GCSE, especially in art and design, history, geography, drama, music and English. · Provides good quality teaching and learning experiences in most subjects. · Has a shared commitment to improvement, amongst staff, pupils and governors, and the capacity to succeed under a new head, who has a clear vision for the future. · Supports pupils’ personal development well, especially their social and cultural development, resulting in very good relationships, the development of initiative, personal responsibility and enthusiasm. · Provides good support for pupils with special educational needs through the learning support department. · Inducts new teachers well and has enabled the staff that work together well as a team. · Has provided excellent facilities for physical education on an attractive school site. WHAT COULD BE IMPROVED · Aspects of equality of access and opportunity related to inclusion, particularly with regard to curricular organisation, behaviour management and the achievement of girls. Woolmer Hill School 1 · Aspects of leadership and management, including development planning and curricular and behaviour management. · Procedures for monitoring and promoting pupils’ academic performance, including the use of assessment, and aspects of personal development. · The school’s partnership with its parents. · Staffing, including recruitment of teachers, the staffing structure and greater inclusion of support staff. · Exploiting the potential of the site. The areas for improvement will form the basis of the governors’ action plan. HOW THE SCHOOL HAS IMPROVED SINCE ITS LAST INSPECTION Overall, the school has made satisfactory improvement since the last inspection in 1997. However, whilst improvement in pupils’ performance is good, improvements, overall, in areas identified in the previous inspection are unsatisfactory. There has been good progress in raising the quality of teaching, including some good monitoring by senior managers of practice. However, although some heads of department monitor their departments well, effective monitoring by middle managers is unsatisfactory, with limited academic monitoring of pupils across the curriculum. There is still little longer term strategic planning and weaknesses remain in the quality of reports and use of assessment. Good progress has been made in implementing the National Curriculum, except in reporting information and communication technology (ICT) levels at the end of Year 11, but there has been little improvement related to health and safety issues. However, many of these weaknesses are recognised by the new head and were already beginning to be addressed at the time of the inspection. STANDARDS The table below shows

    WOOLMER HILL SCHOOL Proud to belong – Proud to achieve “Students’ behaviour in lessons and around the school is exemplary.

The school attracts students from a wide area including Thursley, Grayshott, Beacon Hill, Chiddingfold, Grayswood, Hindhead, Liphook and Churt, as well as Haslemere itself. We are a growing, over- subscribed and friendly school with a strong and supportive community spirit and inclusive ethos. We have high expectations of all members of our school community. We have an inclusive approach to educating the whole person, based upon an ethos of mutual respect and active involvement in all aspects of school life. We believe that all members of our school community should be challenged to achieve their full potential. We place a great deal of emphasis on developing independent, life-long learners and work closely with our post-16 partners to ensure that our students have the qualities necessary to succeed in post-16 settings and beyond to university and the workplace. Our students are a wonderful group of young people to work with. It is important to us that the views and contributions of our students are valued and that they are involved in decisions that affect their school. We have an active House Council and student leadership group, who meet regularly to discuss whole-school matters or to lead their own projects.

  • Catholic Churches, Bishop Anthony Reminded the Congregation That All Such Things As Warmth, Electricity and Water Are Taken for Granted in England
    St. Joseph’s Grayshott and Christ The King Headley Christ the King Church, Headley ‘Catholic Dunkirk Spirit’ welcomes their Bishop A giant Douglas fir tree and two smaller trees which fell in the grounds of Headley’s Catholic Church threatened the official visit of the Bishop of Portsmouth on Sunday. After parishioners were alerted to the trees which were lying in the road, a team of men and boys took over six hours successfully dealing with the problem and the last tree had been removed by 3 o’clock. Carl Tantum and the rest of the team opened a bottle of champagne to celebrate. Amazing there was very little damage to the roof and parishioner, Michael Gallagher, an architect, pointed out that while tiles would surely have to be replaced, the cedar shingles had flexed more and have stood up well to the buffeting. Bishop Anthony Emery was welcomed at the 9.15 Mass on Sunday morning when apparently the ‘Dunkirk spirit’ prevailed and the Church was lit by candles and gas lamps. Although some parishioners had been unable to get to the Church, those present heard the Bishop preach at the service at which Father O’Donnell was the Celebrant. With October 18 held on Mission Sunday, in all Catholic Churches, Bishop Anthony reminded the congregation that all such things as warmth, electricity and water are taken for granted in England. On the Missions the population sometimes have to travel vast distances to get even the most simple necessities of life. Despite the privations he has seen, communities will place more importance in practising their faith than on getting essentials like water.

DESCRIPTORS *Content Area Reading; *Context Clues; Higher Education; Reading Ability; *Reading Comprehension; *Reading Improvement; Reading Instruction; Reading Materials; *Reading Processes; Reading Research; Reading Strategies; Syntax IDENTIFIERS *Content Cues; Reading Concepts; Reading Fluency; Reading Management ABSTRACT In order to test the ef.licacy of having college students read texts in which phrase boundaries are explicitly cued, the phrased text treatments were administered to 42 college students from 3 developmental reading courses in one southeastern university. An experimental group was given the phrased texts, while a control group was given the conventionally formatted texts. A brief true-false quiz followed each reading of a text to insure that the subjects were reading for meaning. Results indicated that the phrased text treatment did not lead to any better (or worse) comprehension on the conventional texts for the experimental group. Although both groups increased their reading rate over the course of the treatment, the increase in rate for the control group was significantly greater than for the experimental group.
