Newsletter September 2019 September 2019 Newsletter Message from the Principal Principal Welcome to the first newsletter of the Academic year. Mr M Snelson Thank you to parents/carers for supporting the Academy in maintaining our high standards, as discussed with students in my first Assemblies, “If you dress smart, you think smart” and over the last four weeks, I have seen plenty of evidence of students thinking and dressing smartly. Your continued support is very much appreciated. Full details of our uniform are found on the school website http://www.leftwichhigh.com/uniform-guidelines.html. Thank you also to my Senior Leadership Team, Middle Leaders, Teachers and Support Staff for the way they have supported me in my new role as Principal. The calm and purposeful atmosphere of the Academy is a consequence of all colleagues’ consistent and diligent approach to reminding students what it is to be a County High School, Leftwich student: a student who takes up as many opportunities as possible; attends and is punctual; listens, questions and thinks hard. During my Assemblies so far this term, I have spoken to students about our drive to develop their comprehension and command of knowledge and skills, their character and their creativity and imagination. I spoke about: the importance of knowledge, which Socrates described as “the one good”, the importance of warm welcomes and acts of kindness and what the picture of our lives would ounty High School, Leftwich ounty High look like, which parts would we like to keep, and which would we rather remove? I stressed to students that they are in charge of the decisions that make up the picture of their lives. Well done to the class of 2019. I am immensely proud that all students left the Academy with at least six GCSEs including in English, Maths and Science. This is testament to our fully inclusive approach, where all students have the The C opportunity to achieve their academic potential. Whilst thrilled for all the students, one student deserves a special mention as she achieved 10 Grade 9s (the top grade possible). Further details of just how successful the class of 2019 were in their examinations will be published during October when the Progress 8 score is released. Finally, thank you to our current students for the mature, sensible and hardworking start to the Academic year. The Academy has been consistently proud for many years of students' excellent performance on all of its courses.

The assessment has been undertaken as a preliminary stage to inform a possible programme of fieldwork. The study area is believed to lie on the site of Leftwich Old Hall, established by the early 14th century when the family name of Leftwich was in use by the lord of the manor. The hall included a stone tower, believed to be of late medieval date, and there is also evidence for a moat, again probably dating to the medieval period.

  • The Rise and Fall of the Marshalls of Northwich, Salt Proprietors: a Saga of the Industrial Era in Cheshire, 1720-1917
    THE RISE AND FALL OF THE MARSHALLS OF NORTHWICH, SALT PROPRIETORS: A SAGA OF THE INDUSTRIAL ERA IN CHESHIRE, 1720-1917 BY D. A. IREDALE, M.A., PH.D. HEN Thomas Marshall from the Hartford Beach, near WNorthwich, appeared before a parliamentary committee in London in 1817, he proudly proclaimed himself the largest salt proprietor in the kingdom. The wealthiest merchant in mid-Cheshire, Marshall determined that his family should one day sit on committees and at table with the greatest in the land. To this end he sent his son to Eton, Cambridge, and the Middle Temple. And his grandson did indeed climb towards the highest levels of society. I FOUNDING THE FAMILY FORTUNE During the seventeenth century the Marshalls lived in Nant- wich. They began business as shoemakers, then as framework knitters. By hard work they grew prosperous, so that when Richard Marshall died in 1692 the family owned a fine "dwelling house in the welshrow" and valuable textile machinery. But living in one of Cheshire's salt towns, the family naturally acquired a "wich-house & twelve leads walling", that is, equip­ ment for raising and boiling brine to produce salt. Salt had long been valued as a preservative and seasoner of food by the fisheries and the navy, by dairy farmers and every housewife, but during the industrial age it was to become an important raw material in the glass, soap, and chemical industries. To invest in salt, therefore, was to plan sensibly for future prosperity. The Marshalls sent much of their cloth and, probably, small loads of salt overland to Northwich, and then by river or road to Liverpool.

  • Newsletter January & February 2020
    JANUARY & FEBRUARY 2020 NEWSLETTER Message from the Principal It has been another busy and productive, stimulating and creative half term at The County High School, Leftwich. Students continue to embrace opportunities during timetabled lessons and beyond. As I visit classes and walk around school I continue to observe hardworking and thoughtful, imaginative and dedicated students, engaging with the learning opportunities their talented teachers have created for them. Beyond the timetable, enrichment activities continue to thrive Principal and more students than ever are developing their knowledge Mr M Snelson and skills, character, creativity, and imagination. Year 11 are coming towards the end of their Student Tracking 2 exams, a final chance to hone their exams skills, celebrate what they know and identify the gaps in their knowledge they need to fill before the external GCSE exams in May. It has been reassuring to see students fully engage in the intervention activities provided for them and the mature manner they are approaching the final straight of their GCSE courses. Students of all year groups have the opportunity to continue learning independently outside of lessons. This may be: formal homework activities set by teachers; by reading to learn more and for pleasure, which is proven to improve attainment in all subjects and/or by completing tasks on one of our online platforms, such as SAM Learning, which has tasks for all subjects, which students can access 24/7 and receive instant feedback from. I would appreciate it if parents/carers would encourage their children to engage in these activities. Thank you to the many, many parents/carers who attended Consultation Day on Friday 24th January.

  • A Guide to Researching LGBT+ History
    CHESHIRE ARCHIVES AND LOCAL STUDIES Short guides to using records at Cheshire Record Office LGBT+ RECORDS Why use this guide? We have produced this guide in an attempt to open up our collections and support research into the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender history of Cheshire. Researching LGBT+ history can be a difficult and time consuming process, especially since many sources of information are not immediately obvious. This guide suggests potentially useful documents and collections to help you uncover the hidden LGBT histories within Cheshire, and gives examples of relevant documents that we have already identified within our collections. It also includes a brief timeline showing various key dates in LGBT+ history. Please note that additional LGBT+ references may come to light in the future as we receive new collections and continue to explore our existing records. Essential Information It is important to note that the words we use to describe the LGBT+ community have changed over time, with many of the terms used in historical records being considered offensive today. Some terms you might come across when consulting records are shown below: Buggery (Gross) indecency Obscenity Sexual offences Sodomy Unnatural offences Unnatural act 1 Contents Timeline...................................................................................................................................... 3 LGBT+ Collections Guide ...........................................................................................................
