Driven by a 24% increase in births between 2002 and 2016, levels of demand for school provision have increased significantly in recent years. In excess of 3,000 additional places have been commissioned since 2012 in primary schools and since 2017 in secondary schools, to cater for the demographic uplift. The recently witnessed increase in demand for primary provision in the City, has already started to impact on the City’s secondary estate and significant additional capacity will be required to cater for future cohorts.

Although parents have the right to express a preference for the school that they wish their child to attend, there is no guarantee of a place being offered at their preferred school. It is the County Council’s policy to try and meet parents’ wishes where possible, however in some cases there may be more applications for a particular school than there are places available. Admission to oversubscribed community and voluntary controlled schools are determined by the oversubscription criteria detailed below. Oversubscription Criteria If the total number of preferences for admission to a school exceeds the school’s Published Admission Number (PAN), the following order of priority is used to allocate the available places. (N.B., after applying the oversubscription criteria, where an applicant can be offered a place at more than one preferred school then they will be offered a place at the school ranked highest on their application.) 1) Children in Care and children who ceased to be in care because they were adopted (or became subject to a residence order or special guardianship order).

  • 2008 Year 11 School Leavers Going Into Higher Education in 2010
    Tracking Progression: 2008 Year 11 school leavers going into Higher Education in 2010 Staffordshire & Stoke-on-Trent March 2011 Introduction Analysis of entry to Higher Education (HE) by Local Authority, district and mainstream, maintained high school This report shows the proportion of all 2008 Year 11 high school students who went on to enter Higher Education (HE) at age 18 in 2010 (i.e. after two years of further education). Figures include those who have an unconditional place offer and are taking a 'gap year'. This study includes those who have entered HE from both the school and college sectors. The report sub-divides the Year 11 cohort into quintiles based on where they live. So Quintile 1 represents those areas in the County/City that are among the 20% most deprived in the country and identifies how many learners in the cohort come from this quintile, and how many of those subsequently applied to higher education. Quintile 5 represents those from areas in the 20% least deprived in the country. The deprivation of an area is based on the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) which is described below (see*). To provide some comparison year on year, data for 2008 entry to HE has been included in the analysis. * The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 (IMD 2007) is based on the small area of geography known as Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs). LSOAs have a population between 1,000 and 3,000 people, with an average of 1,500 people. In most cases, these are smaller than wards, thus allowing the identification of small pockets of deprivation.

To understand young peoples’ points of view, a survey based on the 2006 National Best Value Satisfaction Survey was designed, with specific questions pertinent to young people added. By comparing directly with the previous survey, evaluation of the council’s polices and strategies can be done and by comparing with the adult population, we can see differences in attitudes to the service offered. The survey also gives the Council valuable intelligence on the quality of life for young people and to help improve the quality of services available.

  • December 2017 Principal’S Welcome
    Newsletter December 2017 Principal’s Welcome A week is a long time in the life of a school. The snow has completely disappeared but this time last weekend I was glued to social media and the online weather forecast, trying to make sure that I’d got every available piece of information to help me decide about school closure. Regardless of the decision, there was one thing that would not be in doubt - there was always going to be somebody who would disagree. This has always been the case, but what is noticeably different now is the willingness with which some individuals rush to post their outrage online, including some who are old enough to know better. I guess I should see this as part of the territory, a challenge amongst many of being Principal of such a high-profile institution as AGS. I think I've learnt to deal with it pretty well, but it did bring home to me just how difficult it must be for some of our youngsters when they first enter the online world, unaware of its capacity for irrational and harmful content and the opportunities for people to comment without thinking. It’s been a sensible decision that in my professional capacity I stay away from Facebook, and don’t use WhatsApp - an app that has many useful features but whose overuse we are beginning to see increasingly associated with poor mental health due to the distress caused by over-sharing or sharing of inaccurate information. And that’s before we get into the inadvertent safeguarding risks of sharing information about a child with a group where you cannot be 100% certain of the background of everyone.
