  • Annual Review 2018 – 19
    ANNUAL REVIEW 2018 – 19 “Sport has the power to change the world. It has the power to inspire. It has the power to unite people in a way that little else does. It speaks to youth in a language they understand. Sport can create hope where once there was only despair” - Nelson Mandela - 2 Foreword… 2018-19 was a year of self-reflection for the Active Schools team, having completed the Insights Personality test. Understanding others and appreciating our differences was one of the key learnings. This programme helped us build valuable working relationships and a network of partners, allowing Active Schools to make the impact they have made this year. The Active Schools team continue to work with and nurture senior pupils who officiate, coach, organise competitions, become Young Ambassadors who are our decision makers. Gaining relevant sports qualifications and valuable experience in delivery, the young people are able to Jude Salmon develop their employability skills. Active Schools Manager In today’s world we are affected by factors including stress, mental health, obesity and poverty. Taking part in sport and physical activity truly does make a difference to our lives and I hope that some of the stories you are about to read will illustrate this to you. The phrase, ‘healthy body, healthy mind’ says it all. Our bodies were designed to move and when we keep them healthy, we have a better outlook on life, and on learning. The most wonderful part of keeping fit and healthy is that it is fun, but as this annual review shows, it can also open doors into future careers through volunteering and coaching.

  • Roseburn Primary School
    Roseburn Primary School PRIMARY 7 TRANSITION TO HIGH SCHOOL FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS What are the transition procedures for my child? Do all Secondary schools have the same transition days? I want my child to go to the cluster school, but they may not get in - when will we find out? What transition days will they do in the meantime? If I know my child is going to another school what happens when other children are on transition days? How will children be allocated classes in Secondary school? Are there any tests in P7 that determine levels? Annual Intake into S1 from Primary Schools: a) Catchment Pupils Pupils who reside in the catchment area of Craigmount/ Tynecastle High Schools do not have to follow any special enrolment procedure. In November each year the Children and Families Department writes to parents whose children reside in Craigmount/ Tynecastle catchment area advising that a place has been reserved for their child in their catchment school and giving information about making placing requests for non-district schools. Please note that attendance at an associated primary school does not lead to automatic enrolment in the cluster High School. Pupils at Roseburn will only be given a place at Craigmount if the pupil lives in Craigmount's catchment area. b) Non- Catchment Pupils Parents of pupils who do not reside in the catchment area of Craigmount High School but wish to apply for a place in the school should contact the Children and Families Department and thereafter complete and return form ST5 to the Department by mid-December.

  • EDINBVRGH* Item No the CITY of EDINBURGH COUNCIL
    *EDINBVRGH* Item no THE CITY OF EDINBURGH COUNCIL Outcome of the Consultation Process for the Proposal to close Drumbrae Primary School Affecting Clermiston and East Craigs Primary Schools and Craigmount and The Royal High Schools The City of Edinburgh Council 17 December 2009 I Purpose of report 1.I The purpose of this report is to advise on the outcome of the statutory consultation exercise in respect of the proposal to close Drumbrae Primary School and to undertake associated primary and secondary school catchment changes. The report responds to the main issues raised during the consultation and provides recommendations on how to proceed. 2 Summary 2.1 The Council conducted a statutory consultation in autumn 2009 on a proposal to close Drumbrae Primary School. Opposition to the proposed closure was expressed during the consultation process through deputations to Committee, by written representations and verbally at the two public meetings. The issues raised by respondents are addressed in detail in the main report and covered the following areas: e Concern that the closure of Drumbrae could leave the area short of capacity in the future; e A view that Drumbrae Primary School is considered to be in good condition and that there is no justification for closure; e The school is a well used community facility outside of school hours; e Feelings that pupils at Drumbrae could be disadvantaged by transferring to a school where class sizes will be larger and where pupils may not receive the same level of teaching support; e A concern that Clermiston is too far away and that potential routes are unsafe; e Concern that pupils at the two receiving schools could be disadvantaged by an inflow of pupils from Drumbrae leading to larger rolls; and e Concern about pressure on school facilities in the receiving schools.

  • Summer 2019 Newsletter
    Broughton High School Summer 2019 Newsletter Letter from the Headteacher We look forward to blue skies and the prospect of more time to relax. For our parental community and staff we remember that the annual school holidays as part of growing up. The holidays gave us the chance to do more of what we wanted without the demands of the school bell and teachers who had the cheek to make us do lots of work when we were in school. For school students in 2019 the summer still means exactly the same thing. It is a chance to find and grow into the new, older and wiser, version of themselves. For our departing S6 students, who have gained so much from Inside this issue: and given so much to Broughton HS for a third of their lives this is the start of the next chapter in their lives. They are moving from the river into the sea, with its broad hori- zons and still uncharted waters. I am confident that they will be able to navigate those waters and make the most of the opportunities they offer. Science 2 Recently our new cohort of S1 students, still in Primary 7 uniform, spent three days Nurture Media sampling what Secondary school would bring to them. This enthusiastic group threw themselves into their activities with their new classmates and I witnessed large Botanics Projects 3 numbers actually running towards the front door long before the start of the school S3 Leadership day as they were so excited about what the day would bring.

  • University Admissions by Individual Schools
    _________________________________ University admissions by individual schools September 2007 Embargo: 00:01 Thursday 20th September 2007 Contents Foreword 3 Executive summary 6 Introduction 9 Admission hit rates and admissions trends 11 University hit rates and average school A-level results 16 Discussion and ways forward 21 Appendix 1: School rankings 29 Appendix 2: Data and definitions 42 2 Foreword In an increasingly competitive world it is becoming more important to make full use of the talents of all our young people by ensuring that the brightest and best have the opportunity to reach university. There is a growing demand for a graduate workforce, and a declining number of jobs which require lower level qualifications. Furthermore, if you look at the top people in our society – in the media, politics, law, medicine and business – you find that the vast majority were educated at a small number of elite universities. So for those of us interested in social mobility it remains a matter for deep concern that, as this report so vividly shows, a young person’s chance of reaching one of these highly- selective universities – and particularly Oxbridge – is an order of magnitude higher for those who attend one of a handful of the country’s elite fee-paying schools. Where does this leave the vast majority of children whose families cannot afford a private education? Of course, there are some state schools which do have good records of gaining entry to selective universities, but there are whole swathes which do not and – as other research has shown – students from less privileged backgrounds are much more likely to attend one of these.
