INTRODUCTION Oxfordshire County Council sees its democratic mandate as having regard for the educational outcomes for all Oxfordshire children and young people in state funded education, regardless of the status of the provider institutions. The county council has a statutory duty to ensure that sufficient places are available within their area for every child of school age whose parents wish them to have one; to promote diversity, parental choice and high educational standards; to ensure fair access to educational opportunity; and to help fulfill every child’s educational potential. We also have a responsibility to ensure, as far as reasonably practicable, that there are sufficient childcare places to ensure that families can: a) access the funded early education entitlements for their child; b) take up, or remain in work; or c) undertake education or training, which could reasonably lead to work. The county council also has a duty to respond to any representations from parents who are not satisfied with the provision of schools in the local area. This could be regarding the size, type, location or quality of school provision. Since 2011, new providers of school places have been able to establish state-funded free schools outside of the local authority school planning process, and now all new schools are deemed to be free schools. There are also a growing number of schools that have converted to become academies, which are also independent of local authority control. School places are no longer, therefore, solely provided by the county council, and the council must work with these other providers to ensure that the need for school places is met. However, the county council has a unique responsibility to make sure there are enough school and childcare places available for local children and young people. No other local or national body shares the duty to secure sufficient primary and secondary schools. Although there has been no statutory requirement to publish a School Organisation Plan since 2004, it is considered good practice to produce a plan related to pupil place planning to clearly set out the framework for, and approach towards, the provision of places. This Pupil Place Plan shows local communities, and those interested in their development, how we expect school provision to change over the next few years. It brings together information from a range of sources and sets out the issues the county council will face in meeting its statutory duties for providing nursery and school places up to 2022 and beyond. The Plan includes present and predicted future pupil numbers on roll, together with information about birth rates, school capacity, and new housing. The Plan sets out proposed changes in the number of school places available over the next year and it suggests where other changes may be necessary in the future. The Plan also sets out our policies on school organisation and the statutory framework for making changes such as opening, closing or enlarging schools. 3 2. SCHOOL ORGANISATION CONTEXT Oxfordshire is a county which is experiencing rapid growth and this is having a significant impact on school planning. Having an up-to-date Pupil Place Plan provides an essential framework for effective planning within this context. An updated plan also provides key partners with trends and data to inform their future decision- making. It is the intention to update this Plan annually. Oxfordshire is a more rural county than South East England as a whole, with one third of the population living in rural areas; primary education in particular plays a critical role in community cohesion and supporting both rural and urban communities. 20% of Oxfordshire’s total population is aged 18 or under. The 2011 Census showed that the number of pre-school children had grown by 13% compared to 2001: these children are now starting to arrive at secondary school. 2.1 Oxfordshire’s education providers Early education Local authorities are not expected to deliver early years provision themselves but to work with providers, including maintained schools, in order to ensure there is sufficient provision available to meet families’ needs. Delivery of early education and childcare provision in Oxfordshire is through a mixed market of private and voluntary providers, including pre-schools, day nurseries and childminders, and through schools, including academies and free schools. There are currently seven local authority maintained nursery schools. The Council publishes an annual Childcare Sufficiency Assessment which is available at www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/cms/content/childcare-sufficiency-market- assessment. Primary education As of October

  • THE SAINT a Moment of Remembrance
    A Moment of Remembrance Amidst COVID this week, the focus in our virtual assembly and the Ethos narrative in form rooms was all about THE SAINT Remembrance.

The www.st-birinus-school.org.uk care and understanding demonstrated by students was so 13 November 2020 impressive as solemnity reigned in spite of the hubbub in the world around us. Despite Lockdown, I was very grateful to Year 11 representatives who met me at the memorial in town. We shared a moment and laid a wreath on behalf of the school. The installation of poppies which the Technology team have so brilliantly presented on Mereland Road has been so uplifting for passers by, especially as significant moments traditionally shared together as a school and a community are unavailable to us presently. Mr W Manning Headteacher Communication & Connection Thought For The Term ‘It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated.’ Martin Luther King Jr. The glittering frost is still dusting the ground when we start setting up for my daughter’s ballet lesson. No longer a short drive to the studio, but a rushed battle with a tangle of cables and frantic tilting of webcams: another change to our ‘normal’ with a move to virtual lessons during lockdown.

  • Newsletter – December 2017
    Dear Parents/Students, I would like to welcome you to this edition of the School newsletter which should give a good flavour of some of the events that have been taking place over the course of this very busy half Tony Rushworth term. Headteacher It has been an incredibly busy first term with lots packed in over the last 14 weeks or so. The end of term is proving to be just as busy as the beginning, with the Year 11’s getting their first practice of INSIDE THIS ISSUE mock exams (with Sixth Form to follow in January), drafting of Year 9 options booklets and planning for the January pathways events on our return. As well as this we have recent and continued Year 7 leaders successes on the sports field; especially the emergence of the Year 8’s who seem more than able to hold their own against virtually any school around. The list goes on, not forgetting our first school Year 8 leaders production, which was held on Friday 15 and Saturday 16 December. School of Rock Performance The Year 7’s have settled in really well at The Bicester School and it is a pleasure to see them Activate Learning working so well on a daily basis. They also seem to be benefiting from the separate lunch period ONB County Camp which has helped them to get used to a new school environment which is quite different from Commemorating the First World War primary school. It has also helped us as senior staff on lunch duties to quickly learn their names, get to know them and see their strengths, especially on the table tennis tables at lunchtimes etc.

  • THE SAINT Meeting New Challenges
    Meeting New Challenges The anticipation and realisation of a first confirmed COVID case this THE SAINT week brought home the stark reality and absolute necessity of all the restrictions and tweaks to school life that have been so successfully Weekly newsletter implemented and adhered to since the start of the academic year. T: (01235) 814444 E: stbirinus@st- Face coverings, masks and visors are now strangely normal and have birinus.oxon.sch.uk been assimilated seamlessly by staff and students. The one-way system www.st-birinus-school.org.uk is cheerfully well trodden and the boys instinctively make their way to 16 October 2020 zones and spaces on break and lunch. What the event has reminded us, though, is that our vigilance must be undiminished, our mindfulness to stay apart and our respect for and understanding of the criteria for "close contact", must remain, as long as this pandemic continues. Nonetheless, whilst we keenly await news and further guidance and contingency from the Government, day-to-day routines on the SBS site and calendar functions continue unabated. Uncertain as to what the future may hold, teachers are front loading the challenge of the curriculum and the atmosphere in lessons is upbeat and punchy, in spite of COVID and the fact that we are approaching the 8th week of Term 1. On Tuesday evening, I attended the PTA AGM and must thank Tracey Timms-Wilson and Patsy Sutton for their incredible contribution as the changing of the guard took place in terms of Chair and Secretary. We welcome Adrianna Lloyd and Sandra Speckels, respectively, as they take up the mantel and continue the fantastic work fundraising for the school.
