  • Our Multi-Academy Trust Planning and Consultation Tame River Educational Trust
    17th January 2020 Dear Parents/Carers, The start of a new year offers an appropriate opportunity to look ahead and to let you know about some of our plans for the future. Firstly, our Ofsted report in November highlighted just two areas for improvement – one relating to resources in English and one to the Languages curriculum. The English department have already reviewed all texts and schemes of work to ensure that all pupils continue to be pushed to achieve their best and it was heartening to hear Ofsted report that teaching in English is very strong. In Languages, Ofsted felt that giving pupils the opportunity to try French, German and Spanish in Year 7 and then to select their preference was detrimental to progress (despite the fact that GCSE results in Languages were strong last year). Pupils and parents, however, have been very positive about the carousel of languages and so we will take that into account as we now plan next year’s timetable in the best interests of our pupils. It was pleasing to see that Ofsted acknowledged how much the school has improved and that it continues to do so. With a view to continuing our journey of improvement, we have been exploring the exciting idea of working with three other successful Tameside schools – Alder Community High School, Mossley Hollins High School and Droylsden Academy - to create an aspirational and ambitious Multi-Academy Trust which would enrich and strengthen the educational offer for all our learners. The information below is being sent out to parents and carers at all four schools today and is simply to make everyone aware that we have formally registered our intention to move forward with developing this idea.

  • Background and Vision
    Droylsden Academy – Background and Vision Background In September 2009 Droylsden Academy replaced Droylsden School, Mathematics and Computing College for Girls and Littlemoss High School for Boys with a new co-educational Academy on the Droylsden School site. In January 2012 the Academy moved into the new state of the art building which has places for 1,200 students plus post-16 provision for 200 students. The Academy has great potential but, currently, faces many challenges: achievement, the quality of teaching, behaviour and attitudes and learning are simply not yet good enough. The school is in Serious Weaknesses and must and will improve quickly and satisfactorily. Sponsorship Tameside College is the sponsor and works in partnership to raise levels of attainment and aspirations of all students. As sponsor, Tameside College is very well placed to create a unique institution characterised by high achievement and success. The College has a national reputation for excellence and has a solid track record of partnership working with employers, universities and local schools. The benefits that Tameside College brings are immense, adding their expertise and ideas as well as opening up life-enhancing opportunities to all in Droylsden. Executive Headship The Headteacher from Mossley Hollins High School (rated ‘Outstanding’ twice by Ofsted, most recently in 2014 – 15) has been working with the Academy in a supportive capacity (one day per week) since January 2015. In March 2015 he has been promoted to Executive Principal across his current school and Droylsden Academy. He spends around 50% of his time in each building. At Mossley Hollins High School he works with the new Headteacher, Mr Stuart Marshall, to ensure that the school runs extremely well day-to-day and continues to perform highly effectively.

  • Newsflash 10 Friday 15Th November 2019
    Mossley Hollins High School Newsflash 10 th Friday 15 November 2019 Headteacher’s Message As a school, we focus on academic success and strive to help students to reach their potential, but we never forget that the development of character and the building of culture are equally important. This week I have been reminded once again of the opportunities outside the classroom that our pupils take part in throughout the school week. On Monday, 11th November, I was humbled by the incredible respect that every student showed in memory of members of our armed services who have laid down their lives to safeguard our futures. As a school, we paid homage to the victims of war, especially our own former pupil Corporal Joey Etchells who died whilst serving with the Lancashire Fusiliers in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in 2009. As usual, we were joined by our colleagues from the Mossley and Carrbrook Partnership schools as well as guests from Greater Manchester Police and from the Police and Army Cadet Training team. We were also delighted to welcome Tracey Akukwe and Vandis Nwanze, Head Girl and Boy from our partner school, Droylesden Academy. Thank you once again to Reverend David Warner for his involvement and prayers. During the service, students representing Army, Sea and Air Cadets, as well as Police and St John’s Ambulance cadets, were joined by members of the scouts and guides to parade to Joey’s memorial tree where they placed their poppy wreath alongside the tributes of each year group and those of our guests. Mr Beardmore spoke eloquently about Joey before leading the musicians in a flawless rendition of the Last Post, our signal to observe, together, the two minutes silence.

  • Great Schools in Which to Learn, Teach and Belong Consultation 22Nd
    Great schools in which to learn, teach and belong Consultation 22nd February 2021 to the 2nd April 2021 This consultation briefing describes the overall aims, ambitions and plans for the establishment of the Tame River Educational Trust from the 1st September 2021, subject to statutory consultation, of which this is a part. Who are the founding schools and sponsor? In alphabetical order, the schools which have been working together for nearly two years to establish the new Trust are: • Alder Community High School • Droylsden Academy • Hyde High School • Mossley Hollins High School Background information about the planning we have been doing has been shared previously with parents and carers in each school and has been made public on our websites for some time. Three of the schools are consulting on their plans to convert to an academy as a necessary first legal step in forming our Tame River Educational Trust with each other and with Droylsden Academy, which is consulting on transferring from a sponsored single-academy trust to a sponsored multi-academy trust with the other three schools. As you know Mossley Hollins High School has already been in a Soft Federation partnership with Droylsden Academy for nearly 6 years now under the executive leadership of Mr Drew Duncan (who was previously the headteacher at Mossley Hollins, between 2002 and 2015), working in partnership with the headteachers and teams across both schools for their mutual benefit. Who will be our sponsor and who supports this change in designation? The proposal to form our sponsored Educational Trust has received the formal approval of Tameside Local Authority, the four school Governing Bodies, the Lancashire and West Yorkshire Regional Schools’ Commission and the Department for Education.
