  • Headteacher Welcome
    HEADTEACHER WELCOME ‘The reason a lot of people do not recognise opportunity is because it usually goes round wearing overalls looking like hard work’ - Thomas Edison Our wonderful Year 11s are over halfway through their GCSEs as you read this and we are very proud of how hard they have been working and how they are stepping up to the challenge of these exams. This time of year is incredibly pressurised for our young people, for their families and for teachers too as we are all unified in wanting the very best. It would be fair to say that it really is a team effort throughout the GCSE season as every member of staff has been involved in supporting the students in various ways from ensuring fruit and water are available at the start of exams to picking up anxious youngsters and being a friendly ear to providing post exam debriefs. Even the students from across other years have been part of the effort by being respectful and conscientious in ensuring Year 11s have the best experience possible. We are really looking forward to celebrating at the prom later this term – always a fabulous occasion in the Academy! The beginning of July will see our new Year 7s join us for a four day transition event which is an exciting new venture for us. It is a project agreed between many of the primary schools and both of the secondary schools in South Weston to try and ensure a positive and supportive move from primary to secondary as well as a great start to relationships between new families and the Academy.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.

  • Headteacher Welcome
    HEADTEACHER WELCOME “The first step towards getting somewhere is to decide you’re not going to stay where you are.” - J.P. Morgan This has been a landmark year for Broadoak as we made the decision to join the Cabot Learning Federation. It has been an incredibly positive move from a parental, student and staff perspective and the opportunities both now and into the future are tremendous. This is the start of a very exciting journey for us all as we continue on our journey towards excellence. It was a moment of real pride when our Eco Leaders – a group of Year 9 students – asked the Chair and CEO of the Cabot Learning Federation, Professor Jane Harrington and Steve Taylor, to enact decisions at a strategic level which would support the climate change agenda. We have articulate and compelling young people willing to become changemakers here at Broadoak and it is wonderful to behold. There have been two standout moments this term which have encapsulated for me the reason Broadoak is so special. The Year 11 Prom was one of the best events I have attended in all my years in education. Our young people were kind, funny and charming as we celebrated their hard work together and I am excited for them as we look forward to receiving their results in August. The other event that was a real highlight was the Transition Event for Year 6. The four days of transition culminated in a showcase assembly in which the whole year group and their teachers, both primary and secondary, sang Shakira’s Try Everything in front of parents and carers.
