7 July 2016 Mrs Debbie Cockrean Coombe Bissett Church of England
Ofsted Piccadilly Gate Store Street Manchester T 0300 123 4234 M1 2WD www.gov.uk/ofsted 7 July 2016 Mrs Debbie Cockrean Coombe Bissett Church of England Primary School Shutts Lane Coombe Bissett Salisbury Wiltshire SP5 4LU Dear Mrs Cockrean Short inspection of Coombe Bissett Church of England Primary School Following my visit to the school on 21 June 2016, I write on behalf of Her Majesty’s Chief Inspector of Education, Children’s Services and Skills to report the inspection findings. The visit was the first short inspection carried out since the school was judged to be good in January 2011. This school continues to be good. The leadership team has maintained the good quality of education in the school since the last inspection. Since the last inspection you have continued to foster a school culture in which every pupil is valued, supported and celebrated, regardless of their background. The school’s Christian values effectively underpin the work of all staff and governors at the school. As a result, pupils appreciate the importance of values such as respect and tolerance, and embody them each day at school. Pupils speak very highly of the support that they receive from staff to help them with their academic learning and their personal and emotional well-being. One pupil who spoke to me said, ‘The teachers care for all the children.’ Parents are overwhelmingly positive about the school’s commitment to provide a full, rounded education in a caring, nurturing environment. You also have high ambitions for every pupil. Pupils are now set more challenging targets in their subjects and teachers expect more of pupils. -

Wiltshire Yews an Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Ebble Valley
Wiltshire Yews An Inventory of Churchyard Yews Along the Ebble Valley By Peter Norton 1 Introduction: This report is the second of five observations of churchyard yews in and around the rivers Wylye, Ebble, Nadder and Bourne that converge with the Salisbury/Hampshire Avon as it flows through the Salisbury area. The Ebble is a fine chalk stream rising to the east of Berwick St John and just above the village of Alvediston, some twelve miles to the west of Salisbury and then converging with the Avon two miles south of Salisbury at Bodenham. Its major tributary the Chalke rises in Bowerchalke and converges with the Ebble at Mount Sorrel in Broad Chalke. All of the villages along this route were included, with thirteen churchyards visited. Of these eleven contained yew trees, and although many of those mentioned are small in stature compared to some of the giants already recorded within the Yew Gazetteer, it was felt that as time progresses, these younger trees will become our future giants for the next generations of yew enthusiasts. A total of twenty seven trees were noted at these sites of which eighteen had measurements recorded. (See graph below which has been grouped by girth and does not include any estimated* values.) Imperial measurements were taken during the recording exercise and converted to Metric. Please note that in multiple individual tree measurements only the lowest to the root/ground was used for this graph. Measured Yew Trees by Girth Range 10 s e e r t f o r e b m 5 u N 0 0.5M 1.0M 1.5M 2.0M 2.5M 3.0M 3.5M 4.0M 4.5M 5.0M to to to to to to to to to to 1.0M 1.5M 2.0M 2.5M 3.0M 3.5M 4.0M 4.5M 5.0M 0.0M Where Irish Yews were significant in number at the documented churchyards, they are also included in this report. -

Wiltshire People Edward Collett Bowerchalke
Wiltshire People Edward Collett Bowerchalke FATHER OF THE FARTHING NEWSPAPER Edward Collett was born at St Petersburg on 13.04.1847, and it was there also, at the British Chaplaincy, that he was baptised on 15.05.1847, the son of John Homes (Holmes) Collett and Sophia Eleanor Wilson. Some few years after his father died at St Petersburg in 1850, Edward and his mother and two brothers crossed Europe to end up in England. Once they arrived in London the family of four set up home in Brixton where it is believed they were living in 1861 although no record has yet been found. And it was during the mid-1860s that Edward began to attend St Bees Theological College in Cumberland. In 1816 the first Church of England college for the training of clergy outside Oxbridge was established at St Bees by William Law, the Bishop of Chester. Edward’s studies there were interrupted in 1866 when he received the sad news that his mother had died at the family home in Brixton. After completing the course at St Bees, Edward was ordained Deacon at Christ Church Cathedral in Oxford in 1870 by the Lord Bishop of Oxford, and the following year he was recorded at High Wycombe in Buckinghamshire. The census in 1871 described him as Edward Collett from Russia who was 23. After this he was offered appointments on the Isle of Man, where he spent the next five years in a number of different parishes, and then at Silverstone in Northamptonshire, where he worked for two years. -
