The college not only focuses on academic progress but provides a wide holistic experience learners can get themselves involved in over 40 additional activities.

WINTERTON COMMUNITY ACADEMY 7 ANNUAL REPORT MEET OUR Governors Our Governors come from a diverse range of backgrounds, offering a wide yet tailored skillset to ensure the continued success of JLC. NAME ROLE Andy Pascoe Chair of Corporation Ann Moore External Governor, Chair of Search & Governance Committee, Safeguarding Governor Dave Harness External Governor, Careers Governor, Health & Safety Governor Gareth Harle Staff Governor Gisela Arruga–Luhmann Student Governor John Fitzgerald External Governor, Chair of Quality Assurance Committee Junaid Aslam External Governor, Chair of Audit Committee Leon Riley Principal & Chief Executive Paul Raistrick Parent Governor Paul Townsley External Governor Simon Driver External Governor Sylvia Hotchin External Governor, Safeguarding Governor Will McCullion Student Governor Alex Douglas Co-opted Member Our full Corporation meets at least once per term and delegates to four committees: Search and Financial Quality Audit Governance Management Assurance 8 JOHN LEGGOTT COLLEGE SPOTLIGHT ON Governors IPaul was elected Raistrick as Parent Governor to the JLC Corporation in December 2017. I have enjoyed the challenge of being a governor at John Harrison CE Primary School in Barrow-upon-Humber since 2004 and Chair since 2011. My day-job is in Quality Assurance, so I’m pleased to have been given the opportunity to join the JLC governing board and Quality Assurance committee. My son recently successfully completed his A levels and is heading on to University soon. My daughter has just started at JLC and I am looking forward to helping the college to maintain and improve its performance and also expand my own experience of governance in education. I enjoy the challenge of debating the sometimes complex issues around educating students whilst ensuring good value for money for the taxpayer. My impression after two years at JLC are very positive – alongside a strong and approachable staff leadership team, there is a healthy blend of governors including former teachers and heads, business people, accountants and lawyers as well as current students and staff. All have a strong commitment to doing the best for our students. IDave was appointed Harness as an External Governor to the JLC Corporation in June 2018. I have much enjoyed the experience so far. My career was with an international company, with overseas postings and a lot of international travel, so I feel I am able to bring both an international & cultural perspective and an industrial perspective to the discussions. I have a lot of experience in management, systems and processes as well as implementing change & simplification/optimisation programmes. I currently sit on the International committee, the Audit committee and am a guest member of the Health and Safety committee. I have a passion for developing people and have spent many years in coaching & development in Industry. I have been very impressed with the staff and senior team in JLC. Education is a challenging environment to work in, and they are extremely committed to enabling the students to perform at their best. I’veGareth worked Harle in education for over 10 years in as an IT Manager. I’m a governor and chair of resources at the primary school in my village so when a vacancy came up here as staff governor I felt it fit well with my experience. Governors here take the role very seriously. They provide a watchful eye and act as a ‘critical friend’ to management. They are able to supportively question the decisions made about the future of the college and are deeply committed to ensuring this college achieves its ambitious goals. 9 ANNUAL REPORT OUR Results John Leggott College have once again achieved excellent results. Over 67% of students have achieved a high grade. This will mean that many of our students will have secured their first choice destination in higher education, higher apprenticeship or employment. 24 students have gained A*/A in all 3 or 4 of their subjects which places them amongst the country’s best. The overall A Level pass rate is 98%. The college’s Science and Art students have again continued the college’s tradition of outstanding results in this area. Other remarkable subjects that will have achieved nationally outstanding results are Economics, Law, Geography and English Literature. The college’s BTEC results are again outstanding with 89% achieving a high grade. Leon Riley, Principal: “I am immensely proud of the 2019 leavers. They have been a fantastic cohort. These grades continue to build on the success they achieved in their schools and will support them on their journey to successful careers. I am grateful to all the staff at John Leggott who work tirelessly in support of our learners.” The college wishes all learners success with their future choices, whether that is to university or employment. Students will always be a part of the JLC family. 98% 89% 67% A-LEVEL BTEC HIGH LEVEL 3 PASS RATE GRADES HIGH GRADES 10 JOHN LEGGOTT COLLEGE # THIS IS THE PLACE 11 ANNUAL REPORT OUR Progression of all leavers secured a positive 98% destination when leaving JLC in 2018/19 67% of all leavers entered Higher Education 18% secured an apprenticeship and employment 7% secured an apprenticeship 6% entered Further Education of students are taking Gap years before 3% progressing to HE of students where uncontactable or 2% destinations not known 12 JOHN LEGGOTT COLLEGE CASE STUDY JACK MARSHALL Courses and grades BTEC Law Level 3 BTEC Business Level 3 Predicted Grades: DD* Destination Staffordshire University How have you found your JLC experience? John Leggott is not just a college – it’s a family. We all look after each other and support each other. The teachers and staff are the best I’ve worked with. Everyone gives you the time of day, whether it’s a little thing or a big thing. The highlight for me was getting my independence which I loved. That’s priceless. When I came to JLC I was a child; now, I’m a man. ST JOHN’S SCHOOL 13 ANNUAL REPORT To enhance the learner experience, JLC has an extensive enrichment programme that students are actively involved in. The majority of these are student led and are designed to support college retention, student wellbeing and improved learner experience. We offer a range of Sports as part of this programme – open to all students. We support and enter athletes from all sports into AoC Tournaments and the National Competitions.
