Archbishops Council Corporate Template National Society Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools Report Pocklington Church of England Voluntary Controlled Infant School Maxwell Road Pocklington York YO42 2HE Previous SIAMS grade: Good Diocese: York Local authority: East Riding Date of inspection: 6 November 2014 Date of last inspection: June 2010 School’s unique reference number: 117987 Headteacher: Gill Campbell Inspector’s name and number: Lizzie McWhirter 244 School context Pocklington Infant School serves the market town of Pocklington and the surrounding area. Currently there are 192 pupils on roll, who are almost all from a White British background. Very few children have English as an additional language, have learning difficulties or are eligible for Free School Meals. The headteacher has been in post for six years. The school enjoys close links with the nearby parish church of All Saints. The distinctiveness and effectiveness of Pocklington Infants as a Church of England school are good The Christian vision and dedication of the headteacher, embraced by all, ensures the Christian character of the school permeates all school life. The focus on each individual child in this welcoming and worshipping Christian community encourages positive attitudes amongst its young pupils, who become confident learners and achieve well. The strong sense of a nurturing family environment, underpinned by core Christian values and inclusive of all, whatever their faith background, ensures everyone feels loved. Areas to improve Enhance the evaluation and pupil leadership of worship to increase pupil’s engagement with, and sense of, ownership. Ensure the school’s distinctive Christian character maintains a high profile at every governing body meeting, so that evidence of the explicit link between pupil learning and the school’s Christian character is clearly understood, articulated and monitored. Enable these young pupils to grow in their understanding of God as Father , Son and Holy Spirit, in order to nurture their spiritual development. The school, through its distinctive Christian character, is good at meeting the needs of all learners Pocklington Infants provides an inspiring and creative learning environment where young pupils are proud to belong, feel valued and achieve highly. This is because this infant school is an inclusive, happy and family community, rooted in the Christian faith. More importantly, relationships are very good and everyone lives out the school’s chosen core values of love, hope, peace and trust. Data shows that these young pupils achieve well, so that by the end of Key Stage 1 attainment is significantly above the national average. This is especially true of reading. Pupil progress is tracked at termly meetings, with the headteacher making further checks on individual pupils. This is because the school always has high expectations, but puts the needs of the individual child first. As a result, children are confident to make mistakes and learn from them. Good partnerships exist with parents. Consequently, the annual Open Week is well supported, which enables parents to be involved in their child’s education. They are also able to attend worship, celebrating good work, where awards which include community spirit, leadership and positive behaviour are given to individual pupils. Attendance is good because children regard it as ‘cool to come to school’. There have been few exclusions because children are really loved and cared for. What really matters at Pocklington Infants is that children are seen as individuals and the development of the whole child is the underlying ethos of the school. Inspired by the poppies at The Tower of London, these young pupils made poppies for a poppy tower at their local supermarket. Here learning is aspirational, not just academic; with a wide range of achievement skills being fostered. Good examples include extracurricular activities involving gardening gang, a Year 2 choir and dance and sporting activities. Pupils show respect for the diverse community around them, enriched by visits to all three churches in the town on their religious education [RE] days. Pupils’ global awareness is enhanced by fundraising for charities, as well as learning about other faiths and cultures in their RE lessons. Visits to York Minster help pupils’ understanding about being part of the wider diocesan family. However, pupils welcome meeting people of faith traditions other than Christianity and visiting their places of worship. Pupils enjoy RE and show a good level of religious literacy in relating the Christian story. They are able to speak about incarnation and salvation in their own words. They suggest positive actions for Lent and show great thoughtfulness in creating their outdoor sensory garden with stones so ‘the bumps would be felt by people in wheelchairs’. In addition, children prepare their own picnics for visits to Burnaby Hall Gardens. They also visit Uncleby farm, where they appreciate God’s creation and their role in looking after God’s world; saying it was the ‘best day ever’. They felt they were ‘in the sky’, looking down on a part of God’s world in which they live and move and have their being. The impact of collective worship on the school community is good The attitude of pupils to collective worship is good because the quality of worship offered to them is making a real difference in their lives. The focus on Christian values and the church year contributes greatly to their spiritual development. All staff lead collective worship as worship is recognised as important in the life of the school and always includes liturgical greetings. Pupils and parents speak highly of worship, saying how important it is ‘we are all together as a school family’. Adults, including parents, praise collective worship for its sense of building community, saying their children enjoy it and take part readily. Key festivals are celebrated in church, such as Harvest, Christmas and Easter. Such times strengthen the links between church and school and give children an understanding of their Anglican heritage. Pupils say they like going to All Saints Church to worship as ‘it feels special and a quiet place to worship God’. Worship sometimes takes place outdoors. All pupils enjoyed celebrating the Palm Sunday parade in the school grounds. The chair of governors is a welcome and regular visitor to school; leading worship regularly and a visible presence in school. Pupils especially remember Bible stories he tells, relating them to their own lives, such as the story of Zacchaeus. Each class takes it in turn to lead collective worship every half term. A good NS 11/2014 SIAMS Inspection School Report example includes the Moles class who wrote their own story to show the values of generosity and sharing. Year 2 pupils wrote a welcome service for new pupils, including writing their own prayers. Class prayer corners are interactive and well used, nurturing these young pupils’ spiritual development. Pupils are growing in their understanding of the Trinitarian nature of God. They speak of the Holy Spirit as ‘Jesus promised when he died he would send the Holy Spirit who guides and protects us from bad things’. The chair of governors welcomes helping teach children more about the mystery of the Holy Trinity, especially the role of the Holy Spirit, ‘this power within us’, to nurture their spiritual development Currently, pupil evaluation on worship is gathered through the voice of the school council and from governors’ questionnaires as well as their attendance at worship. However, foundation governors and pupils alike recognise the importance of sharing their viewpoints more often. They are also committed to extending pupils’ opportunity to lead worship so that its integrity and quality continually enhance pupils’ self-evaluation. The effectiveness of the leadership and management of the school as a church school is good Pocklington Infants’ Christian foundation is effectively promoted by the Christian vision and dedication of the headteacher, supported by the clergy, governors and staff. This is also embraced by parents and pupils so that the school’s Anglican foundation is celebrated. Parents praise the fact that their children’s needs are very well met. They especially praise the school’s encouragement, extra support and intervention strategies. This is because pupils’ wellbeing is given a high priority, with church and school sharing the same values. They speak very highly of the ‘brilliant’ headteacher, praising her visible presence in the playground ‘morning and night’. They go on to cite the way she ‘links you with your child’ and how you can ‘trust all the teachers to look after your child’. This is reassuring for parents of very young children. Collective worship and RE have an equally high status in school and are led by the headteacher and a member of the senior leadership team, who share this important folio. Areas from the last inspection have been addressed, showing how the school has moved on, with clear priorities identified for future action. Partnerships are strong, not just with the Roman Catholic Primary School next door, but also with the junior community school, where many of these infant children progress to in their educational life. Community links are very good, with the school holding a positive profile, both locally and in the wider context of the East Riding. Good examples include the school winning awards at the Driffield Show and a gold award for Yorkshire in Bloom. There are good links with the diocese, with RE network meetings often held in school. Pocklington staff take on many roles and responsibilities and benefit from training and support offered to them by the Diocese. The schools’ distinctive Christian character is not a standing item on the governing body agenda. However, foundation governors value this in order to raise its status with all governors. Currently, governors are not explicitly linking standards to the school’s Christian character, but welcome this as they are committed to monitoring the performance of the school and embedding this monitoring with the school’s values.

But too many of them are suffering from neglect, decay and pressure from development. Heritage at Risk is a national project to identify these endangered places and then help secure their future. In 2008 English Heritage published its first register of Heritage at Risk – a region-by-region list of all the Grade I and II* listed buildings (and Grade II listed buildings in London), structural scheduled monuments, registered battlefields and protected wreck sites in England known to be ‘at risk’.

The Register provides an Wannual snapshot of historic sites known to be at risk from neglect, decay or inappropriate development. Nationally, there are more barrows on the Register than any other type of site. The main risk to their survival is ploughing. The good news is that since 2014 we have reduced the number of barrows at risk by over 130, by working with owners and, in particular, Natural England to improve their management. This picture is repeated in Yorkshire, where the greatest concentration of barrows at risk is in the rich farmland of the Wolds.

  • An Examination of Diachronic Change in Anglo-Saxon Barrow Burial Practices
    An Examination of Diachronic Change in Anglo-Saxon Barrow Burial Practices By Erin Kathleen DuBois Submitted to the Faculty of The Archaeological Studies Program Department of Sociology and Archaeology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science University of Wisconsin-La Crosse 2012 ©2012 by Erin Kathleen DuBois All rights reserved ii AN EXAMINATION OF DIACHRONIC CHANGE IN ANGLO-SAXON BARROW BURIAL PRACTICES Erin K. DuBois University of Wisconsin- La Crosse, 2012 The Anglo-Saxon period in British history is full of social, religious and political upheaval. Not only is this reflected in the surviving historical record, but also in the collection of burial sites through the island. Over the course of several hundred years the use of the barrow mounds burials seems to change. This study will examine data collected from early Anglo-Saxon cemeteries, ‘Final Phase’ burials, Late Anglo-Saxon cemeteries, and Viking burials in order to better understand the burial traditions that span this period in time. The specific variable to be examined will be body positions, type of burials, the use of grave goods, treatment of outcasts, along with age and sex ranges within each of the above burial types. The use of historical documents will also be used in order to understand the mindset of the individuals reacting to the changes that this period experienced. The results produced by this study will show how the individuals during the Anglo-Saxon period reacted to large number of social changes that occurred because of the Viking invasions during this period of British history.

  • U DFJ Records of Francis Johnson 1939-2010 & Partners, Architects
    Hull History Centre: Records of Francis Johnson & Partners, Architects U DFJ Records of Francis Johnson 1939-2010 & Partners, Architects Historical Background: Francis Johnson and Partners, Architects (1937-Present) This firm of architects was established by local architect Francis Johnson in 1937. Based in Bridlington, the office was originally in Manor Street before being moved to its permanent location at Craven House, 16 High Street, in 1940. In the early years there was just Francis and a secretary working at the firm. In 1947 a draughtsman, Brian Smith, was appointed by Francis to help him cope with an increasing workload. The first architect to be appointed was Clive Barnby in 1953 and he remained with the firm until 1971. Tim Pool was the next architect to be appointed, he was with the firm from 1961 until 1967. In 1963 a third architect, Malcolm D. McKie, was appointed and his business acumen proved indispensable to the running of the firm. Malcolm McKie remained at the firm until his retirement. The 1970s and 1980s saw a massive increase in work for the firm, and in 1989 Digby Harris was appointed as the firm's newest architect. In 1991 the leadership of the firm jointly passed to Digby Harris and Malcolm G. Stather. Other employees of the firm have included Roger J.M. Goldthorpe and V. Kemp-Webster. As would be expected, most of the firm's work was located in the East Riding of Yorkshire. Staple commissions tended to be located in Bridlington, Driffield, Filey and the surrounding villages. North Yorkshire also provided the firm with a large number of commissions centred round York itself, Malton, Whitby and Scarborough.

  • Address . T. Bulmer &
    ADDRESS . I N submitting to their subscribers this edition of the History, Topography , and Directory of East Yorkshire, the Proprietors trust that the arrang . Thement and treatment of the matter will meet with general approval e compilation of such a work necessarily occupies a considerable length of time, during which many changes take place, but the Editors have endeavoured to kee p themselves au fait with what was passing, and to secure the latest and most accurate information, each town and parish was personally re-visited and revised whilst the sheets were in the press . In the arrangement the New Parliamentary Divisions have been adopted , instead of the old and nearly obsolete Wapentakes ; and the parishes in each follow in alphabetical order . A copious index will still further facilitate reference . Of the plan and scope of the work little need be said . The East Riding is first viewed as a whole, and a resume of its history is given. This is followed b y a sketch of its physical features, soil and agriculture ; and its judicial an d ecclesiastical polity and divisions. Each parish is next passed in review, an d whatever there may be of interest attaching to it is related. The desire of the Proprietors has been to produce a thoroughly reliable and trustworthy book of reference, and they can assure their patrons that no effort s have been spared on their part to secure this important and essential feature . A few errors may possibly have escaped detection, but the Editors are confident that in completeness and accuracy this History and Directory of East Yorkshir e will compare favourably with any hitherto published.

It is great to record progress on two of Yorkshire’s most famous places. TAfter putting Wentworth Woodhouse back on the Register last year we are now working with new owners to administer a major government grant which is beginning to secure the fabric of the building. At Stamford Bridge, advice rather than grant has removed the risk of damaging development around the 1066 battlefield which is now protected by the East Riding’s Local Plan. We have continued our successful mills campaign with the completion of repairs at Waterloo Mill and developers taking on buildings highlighted in our study ‘Engines of Prosperity’. The mighty Hunslet Mill has a new owner and works are already underway to create new homes there, meeting government objectives for housing and saving our heritage.

  • U DDKG Papers of Professor Herbert King 1445 - 1958
    Hull History Centre: Papers of Professor Herbert King U DDKG Papers of Professor Herbert King 1445 - 1958 Biographical Background: Herbert King was born in 1897 and attended Wigan Grammar School. He served in the First World War and then studied Geography at Liverpool University becoming a lecturer after he graduated. He was one of the first members of staff at the new University College of Hull in 1928. He served as external examiner to Liverpool (1935-1939) and Leeds (1937-1940) universities and worked for the Board of Trade during the Second World War. He was appointed Professor of Geography in 1954 after the College received its Charter as a University. He died on 1 March 1958 after a long illness. Custodial history: Donated by Mrs King in May, August and December 1970 Description: The papers of the Professor Herbert King comprise a small number of original documents for the East Riding of Yorkshire, his notes and extracts on the history and geography of the East Riding and a large number of photographs or copies of maps and plans for the region. The original documents include an account roll of the reeve and beadle of Bishop Wilton (1482) as well as a 17th century valuation of the manor, and pains laid in the manor court in 1728. There is a 1653 rental for Newsome, an 18th century terrier of Kilpin fields before enclosure and an 18th century notebook which includes pedigrees of the Hilton and Ellerker families and a copy of a letter from William, Prior of Bridlington, to Thomas Cromwell, confirming that Gilbert of Gaunt and not the King founded the priory (c.1531).
