Admissions Policy and Procedures Governing Body Policy for Entry In Admissions Policy and Procedures Governing Body Policy For Entry in 2018 - 2019 Miss D Stanley, Headteacher 2 Admissions and Sixth Form Admissions: Maidstone Grammar School for Girls is a selective Grammar school. The school will admit girls into Years 7 to 11 and girls and boys into Years 12 and 13. Year 7 Admissions: September 2018 Maidstone Grammar School for Girls complies with the Co-ordinated Admission Scheme, which is administered by Kent Local Authority (Kent County Council Co-ordinated Scheme for Secondary Admissions, Academic Year 2017/18). Detailed information about the school is available in the prospectus and Essential Information Booklets which can be found on the school website www.mggs.org Girls are normally admitted at age 11. All students must have gained a selective place through the Kent PESE and placed Maidstone Grammar School for Girls on their Secondary Common Application Form (SCAF), in order to be eligible for admission. Details of the Kent PESE are available from the Kent County Council booklet ‘Admission to Secondary School in Kent 2018’. There is no guarantee of a place to applicants who meet the over-subscription criteria. The Published Admissions Number is 180. Entry is through the Kent age 11 assessment procedure. When the school is oversubscribed (the School’s Planned Admission Number is 180), the following oversubscription criteria will be used in the order shown: 1) Qualifying children who are looked after and previously looked after children 2) Governor places: The top 30 students on rank order of the TOTAL aggregate score on the 11+ assessment tests 3) Other qualifying children, in the order of siblings. Please note the definition below of a qualifying child for current family association. 4) Other qualifying children with Health and Special Access Reasons 5) Other qualifying children living the shortest distance from the school. Definitions: Children in Local Authority Care or Previously in Local Authority Care - a child under the age of 18 years for whom the local authority provides accommodation by agreement with their parents/carers (Section 22 of the Children Act 1989) or who ceased to be so because they became subject to an adoption, residence or special guardianship order under Part IV of the Act. Qualifying A child who has been assessed as suitable for admission to grammar school. To be eligible girls should be assessed through the Kent Age 11 Selection Procedure. Current Family Association - a brother or sister attending either Maidstone Grammar School for Girls or Maidstone Grammar School when the child starts. In this context brother or sister means children who live as brother or sister in the same house, including natural brothers or sisters, adopted siblings, stepbrothers or sisters and foster brothers and sisters. 3 Health and Special Access Reasons - Medical/Health and Special Access Reasons will be applied in accordance with the school’s legal obligations, in particular those under the Equality Act 2010. Priority will be given to those children whose mental or physical impairment means they have a demonstrable and significant need to attend a particular school. Equally this priority will apply to children whose parents’/guardians’, physical or mental health or social need means there is a demonstrable and significant need for their child to attend a particular school. Such claims will need to be supported by written evidence from a suitably qualified medical or other practitioner who can demonstrate a special connection between these needs and the particular school. Nearness of children's homes to school - The distance between the child’s permanent home address and the school is measured in a straight line using Ordnance Survey address point data. Distances are measured from a point defined as within the child’s home to a point defined as within the school as specified by Ordnance Survey. The same address point on the school site is used for everybody. When we apply the distance criterion for an oversubscribed Community or Voluntary Controlled school, these straight line measurements are used to determine how close each applicant’s address is to the school. In the event of any of the above criteria being oversubscribed, priority will be given based on distance as described above with those closest being given higher priority. In the unlikely event that two or more children in all other ways have equal eligibility for the last available place at the school, the names will be issued a number and drawn randomly to decide which child should be given the place. If siblings from multiple births (twins, triplets, etc) apply for a school and the school would reach its Published Admission Number (PAN) after admitting one or more, but before admitting all of those siblings, the LA will offer a place to each of the siblings, even if doing so takes the school above its PAN. Transport Please refer to KCC documentation regarding transport. Waiting list will be held for at least the first term of the academic year in oversubscription criteria order. 4 Determined Statutory Consultation Area for Kent Secondary Schools: The Local Authority is required to define “relevant areas” within which the admissions authorities of all maintained schools must conduct their statutory consultation. Admission authorities for all maintained secondary schools within the relevant area must consult the admission authorities for all maintained primary, middle and secondary schools in the area. An academy must consult in the way that other admission authorities do, but cannot alter its admission arrangements without the approval of the Secretary of State. Consultations must take place at least every seven years and in any year that changes are proposed.

  • Notes on the Probable Course of the Roman Road from Lympne to Dover
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 62 1949 NOTES ON THE PROBABLE COURSE OF THE ROMAN ROAD FROM LYMPNE TO DOVER By IVAN D. MARGARY, F.S.A. THE existence of a Roman road connecting Lympne with. Dover is attested by its actual appearance upon the diagrammatic map known as the Peutinger Table. No traces of the road had, however, been identified, and the growth of Folkestone and its outskirts has now put much of the probable route beyond direct investigation. Some notes were put forward by the late S. E. Winbolt in his book Roman Folkestone (Methuen, 1925) as a tentative approach to the subject, and it was with a view to testing these on the ground that the present investigation was made. There is general agreement that the existing road along the old cliffs at Lympne represents the Roman road. East of Shipway Cross it bends a good deal and is probably an old ridgeway track rather than an engineered road, but there seems no reason to disregard it as a part of the route on that account. We thus arrive at the crossing of the Brockhill Stream, just at the western entry to Hythe, and it seems clear that the trackway is directly continued by an old lane, now in part only a footpath, straight up the hill north-eastwards to Saltwood, making no doubt for the hills inland. Consideration of the eastward course of a Roman road from this point is very largely determined by the topography, which here shows marked features some of which would entirely preclude the making of a direct road.

  • How Lyminge Parish Church Acquired an Invented Dedication
    ANTIQUARIANS, VICTORIAN PARSONS AND RE-WRITING THE PAST: HOW LYMINGE PARISH CHURCH ACQUIRED AN INVENTED DEDICATION ROBERT BALDWIN For more than a century, the residents of Lyminge, on the North Downs in East Kent, have taken for granted that the parish church is dedicated to St Mary and St Ethelburga. Yet for many centuries before that, it was known as the church of St Mary and St Eadburg. The dedication to St Mary, the Virgin, is ancient and straightforward to explain, for it appears in the earliest of the surviving charters forLyminge dated probably to 697. 1 The second part of the dedication, whether this is correctly St Ethelburga or St Eadburg, is also likely to pre-date the Norman Conquest for both are clearly Anglo-Saxon names. But the uncertainty over the dedication invites investigation to understand who the patron saint actually is and the cause of the change, which is an unusual event by any standards. At first sight, St Ethelburga is apparently also easy to explain. Although there were a number of St Ethelburgas, the one traditionally connected with Lyminge was Queen LEthelburh2, daughter of LEthelberht I, King of Kent, and widow of Edwin, King of Northumbria. The story of her marriage to Edwin, his conversion to Christianity and the beginning of the conversion of Northumbria in the 620s was recorded by Bede, writing around a century later.3 AfterEdwin's death in battle in 633, Bede noted that LEthelburh returned to Kent where her brother Eadbald had become king. Other sources4 recounted that the king allowed his sister to retire to his estate at Lyminge where she established a 'minster'5 and subsequently died in 647.6 A dedication to St Ethelburga makes sense in the historical context ofLyminge.

Summary The district is rich in archaeological evidence beginning from the first occupations by early humans in Britain 800,000 years ago through to the twentieth century. The archaeological remains are in many forms such as ruins, standing monuments and buried archaeology and all attest to a distinctive Kentish history as well as its significant geographical position as a gateway to the continent. Through the district’s archaeology it is possible to track the evolution of Kent as well as the changing cultures, ideas, trade and movement of different peoples into and out of Britain. The District’s role in the defence of the country is also highlighted in its archaeology and forms an important part of the archaeological record for this part of the British southern coastline.

  • Saxon Monastery in Kent
    Uncovering an Anglo- Saxon Monastery in Kent Interim Report on University of Reading Excavations at Lyminge, 2008 Gabor Thomas 1 Landscapes of the Anglo-Saxon Conversion: University of Reading Excavations at Lyminge, Kent, 2008 The following presents provisional results of the inaugural year of open-area excavation by the University of Reading within the precincts of the Anglo-Saxon monastic site of Lyminge, Kent. This work forms part of a wider project entitled ‘Landscapes of Conversion: the Anglo-Saxon Church within the Kingdom of Kent’, which seeks to construct a comparative framework in which to interpret and contextualize the evidence garnered from Lyminge. Historical and archaeological background The historical context surrounding the Anglo-Saxon monastery of St Mary’s, Lyminge has received full treatment in the Project Design (Thomas 2005). Since the initiation of the excavations a critical analysis of the historical sources relating to Lyminge minster has appeared in print (Kelly 2006). Kelly’s detective work has shaken many of the ‘truths’ surrounding the foundation legend of Lyminge minster derived from the largely post-Conquest hagiographical tradition associated with the Kentish saint, Mildrith (Rollason 1982). It is from this source that Lyminge derives its association with its founding abbess, the historical figure, Æthelburh, widow of King Edwin of Northumbria and daughter of King Æthelberht I of Kent, and with her its foundation date of A.D. 633. Contrary to received wisdom, Kelly points out that a Christian site of this comparatively early date was more likely to have been non-monastic in character, perhaps taking the form of a royal mortuary chapel.

  • The Origin of the Lathes of East Kent
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 133 2013 THE ORIGIN OF THE LATHES OF EAST KENT JAMES LLOYD No two English counties are the same but Kent has many peculiarities. The lathes, administrative divisions which are now obsolete, have attracted much comment and their origin has been the cause of considerable speculation. This essay reviews some of the earlier theories on this subject and offers one of its own. Questions of their function and the officers and courts which manifested them deserve to be discussed but, for the sake of brevity and simplicity, this essay will restrict itself to a very basic discussion of the factors which caused the early development of the lathes and how they assumed their names. Owing to the imbalance of evidence, the essay’s emphasis will be on the east Kent lathes.1 The first detailed survey of the lathes is that in the Domesday Book, in which Kent was divided into seven (Map 1a); Boruuar Lest, Estrelest, Linuuartlest, Wiuuartlest,2 Lest de Sudtone, Lest de Ailesford3 and Lest de Middeltune.4 Of the four east Kent lathes, Estrelest means the lathe of Eastry and the other three are lathes of the wara (Old English for ‘men’, crudely converted into legal Latin) of the borough (i.e. Canterbury), the River Limen and Wye respectively. They are also found as ‘Lest de Borowart’,5 ‘Lest de Estrede’,6 ‘Lest de Linuuarlet’7 and ‘Lest de Wiwarlet’.8 By contrast, the three west Kent lathes are named directly after the estates of Sutton-at-Hone, Aylesford and Milton, of which the first and last are also found as ‘dimidius lest’ (half-lathe).9 The first reference to the Limen-wara is in a charter of 724,10 which alludes to land ‘on Limenwearawealde’, in the weald of the men of the Limen, (i.e.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Rural Housing Enabler (RHE) undertook a parish wide survey to ascertain if there are shortfalls in affordable housing provision within the parish of Wye with Hinxhill. The survey also sought to identify the needs of older households of all tenures needing to downsize/move to more suitable accommodation. This report provides overall information as well as analysis of housing need. A survey was posted to every household within the parish in July 2018. 1200 surveys were distributed with 387 surveys being returned, representing a 32% response rate. Analysis of the returned survey forms identified that 75% of respondents are owner occupiers. 55% of respondents have lived in the parish for over 10 years. High property prices and a predominance of privately owned homes means that some local people are unable to afford a home within the parish. At the time of writing the report the cheapest property for sale was a 3 bed bungalow for £275,000; to afford to buy this a deposit of approximately £41,250 would be required and an income of £66,786.
