Banbury and Bicester College
Sharing Innovative Approaches to Delivering 16-19 Study Programme Principles Banbury and Bicester College Enterprise and Employability “At the heart of our model for Study Programmes is the development of employability skills through the learning company concept.” Rose Turner, Principal Banbury and Bicester College is part of Activate Learning1, a group which combines secondary, further and higher education along with workforce training, commercial business and social enterprise. The Activate Learning group was formed in September 2013, following the merger of Oxford and Cherwell Valley College, and Reading College in 2010. The group comprises Banbury and Bicester College, City of Oxford College, Reading College and Activate Enterprise. Activate Learning has a chief executive officer; each college has a principal and Activate Enterprise a director. In 2012/13 the three colleges recruited around 14,500 learners, two thirds of whom were adults on part-time courses. Most learners, currently, are on foundation and intermediate programmes and the group have around 1,800 apprentices in five subject areas. Oxfordshire and Berkshire are affluent counties with rates of unemployment below national averages. However, across both counties, there are areas of educational and social deprivation and the profile of learners attending the colleges reflects this. GCSE attainment in local secondary schools is broadly at, or just below, national averages, and many learners come to study and train at the colleges with attainment below national averages. The proportion of the population of Oxfordshire and Berkshire from minority ethnic backgrounds varies from around 25% in Reading to below 5% in Banbury and Bicester. However, the proportion of learners from minority ethnic backgrounds in the colleges matches or exceeds these local proportions.

Clifton Past and Present
Clifton Past and Present L.E. Gardner, 1955 Clifton, as its name would imply, stands on the side of a hill – ‘tun’ or ‘ton’ being an old Saxon word denoting an enclosure. In the days before the Norman Conquest, mills were grinding corn for daily bread and Clifton Mill was no exception. Although there is no actual mention by name in the Domesday Survey, Bishop Odo is listed as holding, among other hides and meadows and ploughs, ‘Three Mills of forty one shillings and one hundred ells, in Dadintone’. (According to the Rev. Marshall, an ‘ell’ is a measure of water.) It is quite safe to assume that Clifton Mill was one of these, for the Rev. Marshall, who studied the particulars carefully, writes, ‘The admeasurement assigned for Dadintone (in the survey) comprised, as it would seem, the entire area of the parish, including the two outlying townships’. The earliest mention of the village is in 1271 when Philip Basset, Baron of Wycomb, who died in 1271, gave to the ‘Prior and Convent of St Edbury at Bicester, lands he had of the gift of Roger de Stampford in Cliftone, Heentone and Dadyngtone in Oxfordshire’. Another mention of Clifton is in 1329. On April 12th 1329, King Edward III granted a ‘Charter in behalf of Henry, Bishop of Lincoln and his successors, that they shall have free warren in all their demesne, lands of Bannebury, Cropperze, etc. etc. and Clyfton’. In 1424 the Prior and Bursar of the Convent of Burchester (Bicester) acknowledged the receipt of thirty-seven pounds eight shillings ‘for rent in Dadington, Clyfton and Hampton’.

The Bicester Cut-Off Was Reduced to a Single Line in 1968 and Services Were Drastically Reduced
The Bicester cut-off was reduced to a single line in 1968 and services were drastically reduced. In 1971 the route was used by six trains to Birmingham and three that terminated at Banbury. In 1973-74 most through services from Birmingham were diverted to run via Reading to Paddington and intermediate stations were served by diesel multiple units running between Banbury and Marylebone. Stopping Trains. A photograph of a GWR class 517 locomotive waiting to leave Banbury for Bicester, supposedly on 1 July 1910, has been reproduced in many publications, most recently in Hugh Jones's new book, The Chiltern Railways Story (p.29). However, for a short time after the opening of the new line, two 7 ft 8 in 4-2-2 locomotives based at Banbury worked stopping trains to and from London. One of these, No 3007 Dragon, was said to play with a load of only three coaches. New stations or halts were opened when the line opened, at Aynho Park, Ardley, Bicester North, Blackthorn and Brill & Ludgershall. A halt at Dorton was added in 1937, and trains also served Haddenham and Ilmer on the joint line. Some local trains terminated at Princes Risborough, and participated in workings to and from Aylesbury, and one or two continued to High Wycombe. By 1919 autocars, or push-and-pull trains, worked almost all the local services. An autocar is a carriage with a compartment at one end from which the locomotive coupled to the other end can be driven, by rodding on the Great Western but by other means on other railways.

Hedgehog Disappearance in Kirtlington During May 2020
HEDGEHOG DISAPPEARANCE IN KIRTLINGTON DURING MAY 2020 Summary Kirtlington is a mid-Oxfordshire parish of around 460 properties and just under 1,000 people with a very active wildlife group, the Kirtlington Wildlife and Conservation Society (KWACS). One of KWACS’ activities is running what in 2018 was said by the then national Hedgehog Street co- ordinator, employed by the People’s Trust for Endangered Species, to be the “U.K.’s largest volunteer-run Hedgehog Street”1. The Hedgehog Street initiative promotes the making of holes through walls and fences to connect gardens that otherwise would typically be excellent habitat for hedgehogs except that individual unconnected gardens are usually too small to support a breeding female2. In May 2020, there was a sudden and near total disappearance of hedgehogs from Kirtlington village. The evidence for that is presented in this paper and, in the opinion of the author, is very clear cut. This paper goes on to consider the possible causes and presents the evidence that was collected at the time. What is striking is that the decline happened during one of the driest Springs in Oxfordshire on record and it happened in the middle of the unprecedented lock down period at the start of the measures to combat the Covid-19 epidemic. It is speculated that these are connected with the disappearance of the hedgehogs but the exact mechanism is unclear. Some evidence points to the possible involvement of badgers but that is not in any way as clear cut as the evidence for the hedgehogs’ disappearance. Kirtlington and Hedgehog Street Kirtlington is located 6 miles north of Oxford and 6 miles west of Bicester.
