Change 4 Life Change4Life is an initiative brought in by the government to inspire a broad coalition of people, includ- ing schools, families and children. The aim is to improve the nation's health and well-being by encourag- ing everyone to eat well, move more and live longer. DSSN is therefore encouraging all its schools across the district to set up a change4Life club. Due to this we invited schools to attend our Change4Life Festival that was held on Wednesday 2nd November, hosted by the Cavendish school and supported by Cavendish leaders. The festival gave pupils a taster of different sporting activities that can organised at their schools in their Change 4 life clubs.

Leadership Bronze Ambassadors & Health Leaders On Friday 9th October 2015 DSSN joined with St Albans Network to host the year 6 bronze ambassador and health leader training. 4 pupils from 19 different schools in Dacorum came to the event at David Lloyd in Hatfield. The event consisted of a morning of team building activities and brainstorming ideas on what makes a good leader. Pupils then spilt off into two different groups, the health leaders had a morning of practical activites. This gave them ideas of different sports they can run back at school in a club they are going to be tasked with creating. In the mean time the bronze ambassadors spent the rest of their morning doing theory, they looked at the role of a bronze ambassador and what their expectations will be back at school. In the afternoon pupils swapped around, the health leaders had to create a rap, poem or song advertising a new Change4life club they were tasked with setting up. The bronze ambassadors had a practical afternoon of a level 1 multi skills competition that has been set up for them to run back in their own schools. The pupils have now have been tasked with going back into their schools and putting all their training and set targets into action with the support of teaching staff. They are going to be creating/ reviewing their School Games notice board and cre- ating a school sports organising crew to help support them in their new Change4Life club and level 1 competitions. School sport organising crews are made up of organisers, reporters, photographers, team mangers and statisticians, encom- passing a whole variety of roles which can include students that are not particularly sporty. This is a fantastic way of getting whole school involvement. Lilli has already gone into a few primary schools across the district to meet with both the ambassadors and the health lead- ers. Schools have got off to a great start completing all tasks set and more! She looks forward to visiting more in the new year. Keep up the great work. www.dacorumschoolsportsnetwork.co.uk 3 @DSSN42 PartnershipBronze Ambassadors Competitions & Health & News Leaders (cont.)

DESCRIPTORS Access to Education; *Admission Criteria; *Admission (School); Case Studies; Educational Change; Educational Discrimination; Educational Policy; Foreign Countries; Free Enterprise System; *School Choice; Secondary Education IDENTIFIERS England; *Local Education Authorities (United Kingdom); Reform Efforts; Wales ABSTRACT This paper presents four case studies that are part of a larger study on admissions arrangements and impacts on school admissions for all local education authorities (LEAs) in England and Wales. It examines factors influencing the social composition of schools. A total of 23 LEAs completed interviews about their secondary school admissions arrangements The four case study LEAs have significantly different market scenarios. Results show that recent national education policy has not been evenly implemented across LEAs. A combination of organizational, structural, and demographic factors have muted much of the potential impact of school reforms on school admissions. Normative patterns of school use have not been substantially affected by the market reforms or the administrative actions of LEAs. LEAs remain important arenas within which school choice operates because they define kinds of choice available to parents in their administrative boundaries.

  • Dacorum Association of Secondary School Headteachers D.A.S.S.H
    Dacorum Association of Secondary School Headteachers D.A.S.S.H. April 2021 Dear Parents/Carers Arrangements for the end of Year 11 and Year 13 courses You will be aware of the Department for Education’s decision about the awarding of this summer’s GCSE and A level grades. Following the cancellation of public exams, this year’s grades will be generated by teacher assessment. However, it is important to note that, in line with official guidance, each school will administer a rigorous system of moderation and quality assurance. This will include some Dacorum schools working together to facilitate the moderation process. Schools need to submit grades to the exam boards by 18th June and this date, therefore, informs the decision about ‘leaving dates’ for Year 11 and Year 13 students. All schools in our Dacorum group have agreed that these students will complete their studies at the May half term break, with a last day in school being either 27th or 28th May; each school will have its own particular arrangements for each year group. However, we would like to build in a cushion between the last day of school and the submission of exam grades. This may be useful if an individual student has missed an earlier assessment task and would provide an opportunity for that student to catch up. We would, therefore, ask that all students in Year 11 and Year 13 ensure they are available to come into their school during the period 7th - 18th June, should the need arise. Specific dates will be communicated by each school.
