  • January 2017 - All Year Round *Term Time BEDFORDSHIRE Only
    More Than A Game Shortly after the birth of her second child, Isobelle, Hayley Winter and her family faced one of life’s cruellest experiences when Isobelle contracted a lethal virus called “Echovirus 11” and sadly passed away after just four days. Until this day they still don't know how or where the virus has come from. With lots of support and love from her family and friends, Hayley naturally experienced many feelings of guilt, blame, anxiety, anger and of course grief all the while trying to maintain a “normal” environment for her eldest daughter, Amelia. A few months passed and Hayley’s sister, Carla, was keen to help her move on and improve her mental strength and well-being and invited Hayley to join her netball team in Suffolk. The team accepted Hayley with open arms and she played her first game shortly after and really enjoyed herself. How did you feel about your first netball game? Petrified... Socially and skilfully! Afterwards she felt guilty for feeling happy and enjoying herself given her recent loss, however her team mates encouraged her that it was okay and to keep playing. How did you feel afterwards? Hot/sweaty! Exhausted, but totally zoned out of my life. It’s now been over 18 months since Isobelle passed away and Hayley is doing well, thriving as a popular, fun and fundamental part of her team, supporting others and always up for a laugh. How has netball helped you overcome your grief? The hour or so a week I get to be with girls helps me detach myself from my everyday life and reminders.

  • 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.

  • HAVE YOUR SAY: College Merger Plans – Views Invited Easton And
    MEDIA RELEASE Released under embargo 00.01 Friday 30th August, 2019 HAVE YOUR SAY: College Merger Plans – views invited Easton and Otley College today launches a public consultation, encouraging views from across the East Anglian community on its proposed merger with City College Norwich and Suffolk New College. The three institutions have been in talks to work together following a review led by Further Education Commissioner Richard Atkins, which has proposed the colleges complete a merger by the end of December 2019. Today sees the opening of the formal period of consultation, during which students, parents, staff, local employers and the wider community are invited and encouraged to share their thoughts on the plan. With a clear objective to provide a secure future for land-based learning in Norfolk and Suffolk, the proposal aims to result in two resilient and financially sustainable organisations, with widened educational offerings and strong industry partnerships. In recent weeks, the Easton and Otley leadership team has been overwhelmed by support in the face of its new chapter, with MPs, business leaders and sector specialists keen to see the region retain its strong reputation for food and agricultural linked education. The consultation period is set to run until Tuesday 1 October, after which all responses received will be considered carefully, before a final proposal is presented to the governing bodies of all three colleges and a final decision is reached. Meanwhile, detailed work continues on business planning and financial due diligence. Mark Pendlington, Chair of Easton and Otley College Corporation, said: “This consultation is an open invitation to all those in the region who wish to help secure a long-term future for the land based education in the East of England.
