  • Admission to Year 7 Or Year 9 2021 a Guide for Parents and Carers
    Admission to Year 7 or Year 9 2021 A Guide for Parents and Carers This guide contains information to help you apply for a school place in Year 7 or Year 9 (secondary schools, studio schools and schools with an additional point of entry at Year 7 or Year 9) You can also visit our website: bcpcouncil.gov.uk/schooladmissions Introduction Introduction Welcome to our guidebook for parents and carers which has been designed to help you find the right school for your child whether your child is starting at a Secondary or Studio school, or moving school during the 2021-22 school year. It outlines what information we need from you, and what you can expect in return from us. Across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole we have 96 schools. The Council works in close partnership with them. The aspirations for our area are ambitious and include investing in our children and young people and enabling access to high quality education. We understand that moving up to Secondary or Studio school is an exciting experience for both children and parents. However, this transition can also be a challenging time for all as decisions are made about which schools to apply for - with this process then followed by the inevitable and anxious wait to see if the application has been successful. Similar to other areas, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council has experienced increased demand for school places due to rising birth rates and movement of families. We have adopted an overall strategy for the provision of school places which includes looking at options for additional capacity at existing schools and new school provision.

    ASPIRE Ambitious Self-confident Physically Literate Independent Learners Resilient Emotionally Literate 2020 -2021 PROSPECTUS Ambition | Self confidence | Physical literacy | Independent learning | Resilience | Emotional literacy A MESSAGE FROM THE PRINCIPAL Welcome To The Bourne Academy. At The Bourne Academy we promise that, by working with you, we will strive to ensure your child achieves their absolute best, is safe and happy, and challenged to be creative and to think. We are all here to learn. We will all treat each other with respect, whether child or adult, and we will celebrate everyone’s successes, whatever role they are in. Learning is a journey involving making decisions and making mis- takes. It is the discovery of new ideas and new answers. At The Bourne Academy it is safe to make mistakes and not to know the right answer. We believe that all students should be empowered to achieve and aspire to the highest, be treated with respect and treat others with respect, and enjoy the Academy. We do not tolerate any level of bullying, whether emotional or physical. Behaviour which is not respectful or which prevents people from learning, is not tolerated. Our specialisms of Engineering & Design and English help us to encourage creativity across all aspects of learning. The quality of learning and teaching is at the centre our success and The Bourne Academy’s talented and committed staff will support and work with your child so that they go out into the world as a self-confident thinking person, able to communicate and empathise with others, looking for opportunities to be successful and eager to carry on learning for the rest of their lives.

  • College Open Evenings/Days During the 2016/2017 Year
    College Open Evenings/Days During the 2016/2017 Year School Sixth Forms It is important you explore all your options available to you. There are a larger number of sixth forms in Dorset, and therefore we are unable to include them all on this sheet. However sixth forms will also have open evenings where students and parents/ carers can find out more about the courses/ subjects on offer and the chance to speak to subject teachers. For your own school, you and your parents/carers will be informed as to when the open evening will be. If you are not sure when it is, do speak to your Form Tutor/Head of Year. Sixth Form Open Evenings are usually held in the autumn and spring terms. You can also apply to other schools with Sixth Forms. If you are not able to attend their open evening, don’t worry, contact the school and ask for a meeting with the Head of the Sixth Form. The dates and times of open evenings for Sixth Form Open Evenings will usually be advertised on each school website.
