It includes 10 schools: Chapel of Garioch School Hatton (Fintray) School Inverurie Market Place Keithhall School Kellands School New Machar School Oyne School Port Elphinstone School Strathburn School St Andrew's School Only one datazone in Inverurie Academy Network Area is classified as being in the 15% most deprived datazones across Aberdeenshire. This should be taken into consideration when comparisons are made between the most and least deprived areas of the Inverurie Academy Network. 1 Population The Inverurie Academy Network Area has an increasing population, rising from 17,414 to 19,706 people 2011, an increase of 13%. There is an increasing and ageing population within the area; from 2001 – 2011 there was an increase from 2,920 to 3,595 in the pensionable population. This group of people now account for 19.3% of the population in the Inverurie Academy Network area, up from 16.1% in 2001. An increasing and aging population presents unique challenges in delivering services, additional housing and the resulting demand in community facilities. 3 The population of children in the area has been decreasing steadily over the 10 year period. In 2011, children accounted for 18.1%% of the population in the Inverurie Academy Network Area, a decrease from 20.5 % in 2001. The proportion of children in most deprived area has fluctuated, most recently increasing from 2008 from 11.2% to 13.8%. Conversely, the population of children in the least deprived areas has been decreasing steadily. The increasing older population and falling numbers of children should be monitored over the coming years to identify whether this trend continues. This will impact on where the priorities of this area will lie in the coming years. Poverty Income Deprivation The rate of income deprivation in the Inverurie Academy Network Area is 5.9%, lower than the Aberdeenshire average of 7%, and significantly lower than the Scottish average of 13%. This is influenced by the area having only one datazone in the 15% most deprived in Aberdeenshire. The rate of income deprivation has been rising steadily, but most recently decreased between 2010 and 2011. The most deprived area of the academy network has a consistently higher percentage of the population who are income deprived. The percentage in this area (14%) is double that of Aberdeenshire and higher than the Scottish average. 4 Employment Deprivation The percentage of those in employment deprivation in the Inverurie Academy Network area is 5.5%, this is lower than the Aberdeenshire average of 6%. The most deprived area has significantly higher levels of employment deprivation in comparison to the rest of the academy network. The percentage of the population who are employment deprived in the most deprived area (14%) is more than double that of Aberdeenshire. Childhood Poverty The level of childhood poverty in the Inverurie Academy Network area fell marginally 2009 and 2010 to 8.8%. This is higher than Aberdeenshire (8.5%) but lower than the nationa (18.6%) averages. The most deprived area has 22% of children living in 5 poverty which is higher than the national average. Comparatively, the least deprived area has 8.1% of children in poverty which is below the Aberdeenshire average. Education The average attendance rate in the Inverurie Academy Network area in primary schools has declined from 2009 to 95.9%. This is lower than the Aberdeenshire (96.2%) average and slightly higher than the Scottish (95.2%) average. Attendance rates are lower for secondary schools, but have been improving, with the average attendance rate being 92.9% in 2010/11. This is marginally above Aberdeenshire (92.8%), and higher than the Scottish (91.1%) average. Attendance between the most and least deprived areas has been comparable. 6 The percentage of S4 pupils who gained English and Maths at SQF Level 3 or above is 95%, higher than both the Aberdeenshire (94.5%) and Scottish (93%) averages. Performance in the Inverurie Academy Network Area is below Aberdeenshire (93.6%) and comparable to Scotland (92.3%), for S4 pupils attaining 5 awards at SCQF level 3 or above (92.1%). Attainment on both measures has been rising steadily in the area. The percentage of S6 pupils in the Inverurie Academy Network Area achieving 3 awards at SCQF level 6 or above has fluctuated over the last three years. In 2011, the rate of achievement was 79.3%, above the Aberdeenshire (69.3%) and national (64.6%) averages. Award achievements at the S4 level in the most deprived are has exceeded that of the least deprived areas, it must be noted that this is based on one datazone only. The performance in the most deprived area was lower at S6 level in 2010/11. In 2010/11, 93.3% of school leavers went onto a positive destination (Employment, Further Education, Higher Education, or Training). This is higher than the Aberdeenshire (91.3%) and Scotland (88.8%) averages. The percentage of school leavers going to a positive destination in the Inverurie Academy Network area from the most deprived datazone has been equal or higher than the rest of the area since 2009. 7 Of the school leavers who did go on to positive destinations (Employment, Further Education, Higher Education, and Training), the majority (41.8%) of school leavers went into higher education in 2010/11, followed by further education (23.7%) and employment (20.4%). Only 1.04% of school leavers went into training in 2010/11 in the Inverurie Academy Network Area. School leavers from the most deprived area are consistently most likely to go into further education, least deprived school leavers are most likely to go into higher education (in 2010/11) and has fluctuated over earlier years. 8 Attitudes to Health The percentage of women smoking at maternity appointment booking in the Inverurie Academy Network area is 14.6%. This is marginally higher than the Aberdeenshire averages of 14.7% and lower than the Scottish average of 17.1%. Rates have decreased over the past three years. Women from the most deprived area within the academy network are more likely to be smoking at the time of booking their maternity appointment, these levels have also been declining. The current rate of low weight births in the Inverurie Academy Network area is is 0.99%, which is lower than both the Aberdeenshire (1.27%) and national (2.04%) averages. For the most deprived areas, 8% of births have been classed as low birth weight in 2009-2011 9 The level of breastfeeding at the 6-8 week review of babies has risen between 2010 and 2011 and is currently at 47.5%. This is higher then in Aberdeenshire (45.3%) Scotland (36.7%). The percentage of babies being breasted is lower in the most deprived area has dropped over the last year, this is now lower than in the least deprived areas where the percentage has increased. Life Expectancy The life expectancy of Aberdeenshire between 2006 and 2010 was higher than that of the Scottish average for both males and females. Males were expected to live 10 until 77.9 in Aberdeenshire, and 75.3 in Scotland, whereas females in Aberdeenshire were expected to live until 81.5 in Aberdeenshire and 80.1 in Scotland. The average life expectancy for men in the 15% most deprived areas in Aberdeenshire between 2006 and 2010 was 72.5, below the Aberdeenshire and national average. Males in the least deprived areas were expected to live above the Aberdeenshire average, living until 78.9 years. A similar pattern is observed in females, to a lesser extent. Female life expectancy in the 15% most deprived areas was 78.9, 3 years less than the least deprived areas and the Aberdeenshire average. Levels of Crime The SIMD crime domain rate is based on five indicators of broad crime types: crimes of violence; domestic house breaking; vandalism; drug offence and minor assault and is referred to as ‘SIMD crime’ rather that total crime, as it does not include all recorded crimes. The average rate of SIMD crimes in the Inverurie Academy Network area has fluctuated since 2004. In 2011, there was an average of 184 SIMD crimes per 10,000 population. This is lower than the average of 208 in Aberdeenshire and the Scottish average of 453. This may be linked to the area only having one datazone which falls into Aberdeenshire’s 15% most deprived areas. Rates in crime have typically been higher in the most deprived datazone but these fell to below the least deprived areas in 2011. 11 12 .

    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

  • Garioch: Inverurie, Insch, Newton 6
    6 Garioch: Inverurie, Insch, Newton The Garioch: This ancient region of Aberdeenshire holds a mass of Davidson history. The small towns and villages are located in an area where farming still dominates the lives of many people and to a greater extent the landscape. We have included just a fraction of the information we have; some of these families are linked with those of the neighbouring area of Formartine. © Clan Davidson Association 2008 Revd John Davidson, 1816–1892, was born and educated in Aberdeen. He later served as minister at Inverurie from the 1840s until his death over 50 years later. He is buried in the cemetery at Inverurie located at the Bass He published an anthology of historical notes and genealogies about the people of the Garioch entitled “Inverurie and the Earldom of the Garioch” in 1878. This useful book contains many Davidson historical references and puts them into context with the other families of the Garioch. Revd John Davidson Andrew Davidson Revd John Davidson and his wife, Mary Bisset, raised a large family one of whom was Andrew Davidson, 1860–1926. Andrew Davidson enjoyed a successful career as an advocate in Aberdeen, as did his son Donald Arbuthnot Davidson. The Bass, at Inverurie. This Motte is one two surviving medieval fortifications on this site which also includes some early Pictish stones. Betty Cosgrove, an active Clan Davidson Association member, has researched the many strands of her Davidson ancestry from this area for some years. She knows the parishes well, and has investigated kirkyards, parish records, oral history, family letters and records, local history societies and regional archives on a very wide scale.

  • Dear Parent/Carer
    Education & Children’s Services Linda Evans Rector Inverurie Academy Jackson Street Inverurie AB51 3PX nd Tel. 01467 621655 2 October 2015 Fax 01467 624425 [email protected] Dear Parent/Carer SEVERE WEATHER ARRANGEMENTS As you know, the weather during winter can become severe quite suddenly. As a result of this, Aberdeenshire Council has clear policies and practices regarding snowstorm and other severe weather arrangements. This letter aims to outline our school procedures and includes a storm arrangements form which we would ask that you complete carefully and return by Friday 9th October 2015 1. SPECIAL ARRANGEMENTS DURING SNOWSTORMS/SEVERE WEATHER If you live in an isolated location, and the weather is severe at the beginning of the day, it would be advisable for your child to remain at home for that day. On such occasions please phone and inform the school. If school transport is not running please do not bring your child to school. If you normally bring your child into school by car then you must come with your child to the School Office, so that we can advise you regarding the transport situation. In the past some pupils have been dropped off at school by parents/ carers who have then had to make a second journey immediately to collect pupils and take them home. 2. BUSES UNABLE TO REACH SCHOOL AFTER STARTING A JOURNEY The hirer will contact us. We will then attempt to contact those on the “priority calls” lists (as detailed further on in this letter), to let those involved know that their child/ward is coming home again.
