Tapton School Academy Trust (TSAT) was formed in April 2012 by Tapton School, an outstanding 11 to 18 school in the South West of Sheffield. The Trust was immediately asked to support and sponsor Chaucer School, an 11 to 16 school in the north of the city which converted to academy status from September 2012.

LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England. -

Passport Activity Newsletter Spring 2020 Welcome to the Spring edition of our Sheffield CU Passport Activity Newsletter. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, many of our Learning Destinations are not running activities as normal, which means this newsletter is much smaller than usual. But fear not, we’ve still included some of their activities and others may still be delivering activities online or via Zoom etc. CU credits can be earned by taking part in these and Learning Destinations will be sending us registers as usual. Others may be producing online, downloadable activities so keep an eye on their websites and social media for more info. We’re also continuing with our 2020: Year of the Nurse and Midwife activities and they’re all included in this newsletter, so there’s plenty to choose from. We’ve now published out 50th daily CU Home Learning Challenge since schools closed to most pupils, and we’re LOVING seeing your photos, videos and examples of the fantastic learning you’ve been choosing to do at home! Do keep sharing them with us. There is information on each of the challenges which explains how you can claim CU credits for completing these challenges if you normally attend a Sheffield school and have a Passport to Learning. If you see challenges published by other CUs, then do feel free to complete them. To claim your CU credits, you’ll need to download a diary sheet from our website (or use the one attached to the back of this newsletter!) and email it in to us to make sure your credits are counted!

Since its formation in 2011, the outcomes for pupils in Challenge Partners schools have consistently improved faster than the national average. We provide networks and programmes that facilitate sustainable collaboration and challenge between schools in order to underpin improvements in outcomes which would not be possible for a school, or group of schools, to achieve as effectively on its own. -
