Our thanks go out to the volunteers who came to work with our students, these included East Midlands Ambulance Service, East Northants First Responders and RAF Wittering Co Responders. Duke Of Edinburgh We are delighted to introduce you to our new Duke Of Edinburgh Manager, Mr James O’Shea. He will be working closely with Caroline Thomas, Operations Manager for our region to further develop this thriving programme at the school. As a Gold Award holder himself, he is experienced in all aspects of the programme. The DofE is many things to many people, supporting generations to successfully navigate adult life. 14-24 year-olds can do a DofE programme at one of three progressive levels which, when successfully completed, leads to a Bronze, Silver or Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award. There are four sections to complete at Bronze and Silver level and five at Gold. They involve helping the community/environment, becoming fitter, developing new skills, planning, training for and completing an expedition and, for Gold only, working with a team on a residential activity. Any young person can do their DofE – regardless of ability, gender, background or location. Achieving an Award isn’t a competition or about being first. It’s all about setting personal challenges and pushing personal boundaries. So if you want a life-changing experience. A fun time with friends. An opportunity to discover new interests and talents. A tool to develop essential skills for life and work. A recognised mark of achievement; respected by employers.— Get involved now !

An identity that demonstrates key values that will allow all students opportunities to be the best that they can be at all times. Pride, independence, self-management, self-motivation, resilience and collaboration have been the values focussed upon and as Senior Tutor I am excited and encouraged by the tremendous start that the vast majority of Brunel students have made to their new school year, and in the way they taken on-board and engaged with the transition to a vertical system of pastoral care. The simple message, ‘Be the BEST that you can be’, has been spoken about in all assemblies and the results of the students, within such a short time frame, have been amazingly positive and demonstrate the greatness that exists within Brunel House. Particular successes that deserve special mention are detailed below: A total of 4,473 Achievement Points have been awarded to Brunel students this term. Ellie and Ellie (Year 9), Nicole (Year 10), Drasius (Year 7), Alfie (Year 9), Connor (Year 8) and Evan (Year 8) have all been recognised as ‘Stars of the Week’ in assemblies for their individual Achievement Points totals. Daniel (Year 8) is the whole school leader in the PiXL Times-Tables competition. A tremendous effort by Daniel which has also helped put The Ferrers on top of this national competition. Jack (Year 9) has been offered a day-release programme by Leicester City Football Club. A fantastic achievement and one that Jack fully deserves after his efforts for The Foxes over a number of years. Jessica (Year 9) and Louis (Year 11) have been recognised by staff for being positive role models to younger students within Brunel House. Young Leaders Charlie , Daniel and Thomas (all Year 9) were recognised for their support of Year 7 students during their off-timetable afternoon. Administration staff have recognised Oliver and Grace (both Year 7) as exceptionally helpful and great ‘student runners’. Leoni for being cheerful and polite around school and brightening up each day for her form tutor, Mrs Underwood. All-in-all, it has been an exceptional start to the new academic year and as Senior Tutor of Brunel House I am extremely proud of the students and staff for their efforts, dedication and commitment. Follow us on Twitter @FerrersSchool or Facebook The Ferrers School, Queensway, Higham Ferrers, Brunel House Art, Design & Technology The academic year has taken off with a flying start in Art and Design & Technology with new staff, courses and displays. Students have enthusiastically welcomed our new members of the team Mr Eckersley (Art), Mrs Lawson and Mrs Wilson (Food & DT). Many thanks go to four of our very talented art students who produced work for the corridor in the Brunel building, using different fonts, art movements and individual artists’ work to promote the subject and bring the corridor to life. Engineering Your Future Engineering is an integral part of Design and Technology, providing a wide range of further education and career options to students with more of a practical aptitude. Year 9 students visited Milton Keynes University this term to take part in workshops and interviews with a range of engineers and practitioners, to find out what engineering could potentially offer them. They very much enjoyed the day, listening to presentations by the McLaren Racing Team engineers and a range of engineering companies demonstrating their developed specialist technology. Follow us on Twitter @FerrersSchool or Facebook The Ferrers School, Queensway, Higham Ferrers, Franklin House Senior Tutor Review - Mrs Fleming I have been so impressed by all the students in the House in terms of how well they have started the year. They are always polite, punctual and smart. The Year 7 students have settled in really well and are a welcome addition to the school in terms of their energy and enthusiasm. I have been especially impressed with how the older year groups are nurturing and supporting the younger students. Such relationships are helping to overcome any fears & anxieties that the students might have. Form time has a really lovely atmosphere with the wide range of tutor activities that students are engaged with. I would also like to thank the Franklin tutors. I am working with a very professional and energetic group of teachers. These staff are from Science and PE. A healthy competitive spirit is certainly evident between the tutors and the forms. I would also like to thank Mrs Grover who is our Student Support Assistant who provides an invaluable support to staff and students alike. If she does not know the answer to a question, she soon finds someone who does! I am extremely proud to be the Senior Tutor of such a House. Achievement Points A total of 3568 Achievement Points have been awarded to Franklin students so far this term. Students topping the table for achievement points in Franklin House are Kristers, Jack, Jack, Charlie, Caitlin, Lewis, Emma, James , Soll, Amber, Sam , and David. News From the PE Department In the middle of September, The Ferrers School hosted Wollaston in a well contested rugby fixture as part of the County Vase competition. Following on from last year’s success in the Under 15 competition, the boys started well moving the ball competently across both sides of the pitch in front of a bumper crowd including fantastic support from the English Department. In the end some strong defensive work combined with plenty of good attacking play saw us score 4 well worked tries through Louis, James, Lewis and Diya.
