  • From the Headteacher What a Great Start to the New Academic Year Here at the College
    Pride ● Passion ● Positivity September Exeat Edition | Edition 12 Welcome from the Headteacher What a great start to the new academic year here at the College. I have met with all of our new Year 7 and Year 12 students; they are wonderful groups of young people who are quickly settling into life at the College and embracing all that we have to offer in their lessons and Wymondham Life activities. We have some new members of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) this year and some roles have also changed. We have included short biographies of the SLT in this edition of the Lion so that you can be fully up to date with who is who. The old Student Service building has now been completely demolished and the foundations are currently being constructed for the new Peter Rout Centre. This will house the Maths and SEND departments and will have a lecture theatre for meetings and talks. We will very quickly see the building take shape over the coming few months. The exams results that were published in the summer, once again, place us as one of the highest performing schools in the country. Our GCSE results rose from 83% to 86% (English and Maths 4+) and the progress made by our Year 13 students in their A Level exams was exceptional with an average point score that is the highest in the College’s history – a huge well done to our students and staff. One final announcement; we do have some capacity for current day students to become day boarders.

They have suffered foreign invasions and internal wars – it also fought with the UK against the fascists. He explained that the fact that both the UK and China celebrate their victory over Japan at a similar time each year (August and September) is a symbol of shared suffering as well as a celebration of peace. Mr Xaoming explained that their suffering meant that they enjoy peace more than most other countries, which is why they represent fairness in international affairs – he claimed that the Chinese people would never impose their will on others, but would not be bound to the will of others either.

College policies are reviewed and updated regularly; full and up to date versions of any policy may be viewed on our website: www.campbellcollege.co.uk or may be requested in hard copy from the College Reception. [In most of our policies there is a section explaining further procedures specific to the Boarding Department]. 3 CCB BOARDING DEPARTMENT HANDBOOK Mr R M Robinson, MBE HEADMASTER WELCOME FROM THE HEADMASTER Welcome to Campbell College, Belfast ‘Education is what survives when what has been learnt is forgotten,’ wrote B.F.Skinner. After all the chemical equations and dates of battles have been forgotten, the memories become fragmented into a series of moments – late-night conversations, the first reading of a particular book, or returning mud-drenched from a rugby match. The combination of these formative moments combine to make what we call an education; and, it is the case that boarders at Campbell have more to remember. Boarding has always been central to the life of the College. Boarding requires a student to take responsibility for their own life and to get on with a community of other people. It also provides them with a secure base and a focus of loyalty in a large school, as well as an opportunity for exercising responsibility and leadership in a community.

    Judge Sonia Sotomayor: Analysis of Selected Opinions Anna C. Henning, Coordinator Legislative Attorney Kenneth R. Thomas, Coordinator Legislative Attorney June 19, 2009 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R40649 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Judge Sonia Sotomayor: Analysis of Selected Opinions Summary In May 2009, Supreme Court Justice David Souter announced his intention to retire from the Supreme Court. Several weeks later, President Obama nominated Judge Sonia Sotomayor, who currently serves on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, to fill his seat. To fulfill its constitutional “advice and consent” function, the Senate will consider Judge Sotomayor’s extensive record – compiled from years as a lawyer, prosecutor, district court judge, and appellate court judge – to better understand her legal approaches and judicial philosophy. This report provides an analysis of selected opinions authored by Judge Sotomayor during her tenure as a judge on the Second Circuit. Discussions of the selected opinions are grouped according to various topics of legal significance. As a group, the opinions belie easy categorization along any ideological spectrum. However, it is possible to draw some conclusions regarding Judge Sotomayor’s judicial approach, both within some specific issue areas and in general. Perhaps the most consistent characteristic of Judge Sotomayor’s approach as an appellate judge has been an adherence to the doctrine of stare decisis, i.e., the upholding of past judicial precedents. Other characteristics appear to include what many would describe as a careful application of particular facts at issue in a case and a dislike for situations in which the court might be seen as oversteping its judicial role.

What Gives You the Right?!-Ne Exeat Rights Should Constitute Rights of Custody after Furnes v. Reeves Kathleen A. O'Connor* I. Introduction The word "family" has an ever-changing definition in our society and societies around the world. In one moment, a family may consist of a married couple with children or, with more recent frequency, an unmarried couple with children. However, in the blink of an eye, that seemingly strong bond may break and thus completely change the composition. Divorce or separation creates two families in which the children are often caught in the crossfire. 1 Custody battles and arguments among the parents subject children to emotional turmoil and uncertainty. 2 Children are frequently treated like pawns while their parents engage in ongoing disputes.

Under an Immigration Ordinance made in 1971 by the Commissioner for BIOT as the legislature of the colony, purportedly pursuant to the 1965 E Order, the inhabitants of the Chagos Islands were compulsorily removed, mainly to Mauritius, because Diego Garcia, the principal island in the archipelago, was required for a US military base.
