  • Questions for David Wilby, Portfolio Holder for Learning 1. Young
    Questions for David Wilby, Portfolio Holder for Learning 1. Young people between the ages of 16 and 18 must: be in full-time education, e.g. at a college or in school; start an apprenticeship or traineeship; or work or volunteer (for 20 hours or more a week) whilst in part-time education or training. Can the portfolio holder for learning tell me how many Rutland residents aged 16-18 were in full time education, how many in apprenticeships/traineeships and how many were studying part-time whilst working or volunteering in academic year 2018/19? How do these figures translate into % of the age cohort as a whole? Figures supplied by Sandra Colton (Youth Education and Careers) Our Cohort (Rutland Residents) Current Year 12 295 Current Year 13 266 Total of 561 In Education and Learning – 97.5% Full Time Education 90.6% Part Time Education 1.2% Apprenticeship 5.7% 2. For the students aged 16-18 who were in full time education in 2018/19 can the portfolio holder tell me where they were studying, and the courses they were following? Due to its size and proximity, Rutland is different to many authorities in that it has in the region of 30% of its Year 11 learners who are drawn from a range of neighbouring authorities. As such when it comes to where they chose to study in Years 12 and 13, they often move back to local providers and this is coupled with transport is the primary reason for the number of destinations given below which they access: A Levels Destinations Harrington Queen Elizabeth Grammar Oakham School Uppingham School Kings School Peterborough Stamford Endowed Schools MV16 Brooke Weston Kings School Grantham Bishop Stortford Beauchamp College The Deepings Vocational Stamford College Brooksby Melton Tresham College Peterborough Regional College Leicester College 3.

    $tskgspa1.docx Rutland County Council Education Performance Board Report on Education Performance Summer 2016 Date of report: November 2016 1 $tskgspa1.docx INTRODUCTION This report was prepared at the request of the Rutland Education Performance Board. The Board’s role is “to ensure that effective improvement has been achieved to meet agreed service and education performance standards, performance targets, and operational practice”. In this document we report on standards achieved, including comparisons with previous years (where this is possible) indicating where change has taken place. We also report on OFSTED inspection judgements of schools and the analyses conducted by the School Improvement Service. This report should be read in conjunction with the document, “RCC School Performance Summary v1 270916”. This report relates to the Council’s strategic objective of “Creating a brighter future for all” and the Education Strategic Plan 2015-18. Colour coding in the report means: RED: area of concern - moderate to high risk; AMBER: area of concern - low risk; GREEN: securely good performance. 2 $tskgspa1.docx 1 BACKGROUND AND MAIN CONSIDERATIONS 1.1 Availability of Data and Impact on Reporting Data for KS4/5 are unvalidated at the point of writing this report. The validated data when finally published are more reliable and detailed. These may require amendments to be made to the conclusions of this report. We shall review the results when they are validated - in line with the calendar below. In the meantime, we include headlines for each of the key stages. The new assessment arrangements for 2016 at KS 1 & 2 mean that comparisons with previous years are not possible.
