The school has been given approval by the Secretary of State to enter the Pre-Opening phase and this statutory consultation is part of the work we are doing to get final ministerial approval during 2018 to open in Spring 2019. Our intention is to offer provision to 150 Full Time Equivalent (FTE) pupils. Consultation has been carried out to meet the requirements of Section 10 of the Academies Act 2010. The statutory consultation started on 14th March 2018 with a published end date of 25th April 2018. Stakeholders were identified from the contact details of people/organisations known to The Education Partnership Trust and included local residents, staff and governors in schools and nurseries, health and other community groups and MPs. All stakeholders were invited to respond to the proposals via a questionnaire (paper or online), attending a public meeting and replying to direct email or letters. The consultation attracted 6 questionnaire responses. There were no other written responses. There where zero attendees at the main public consultation meeting, held on 26th March 2018 from 17:00 at Coal Clough Academy. The outcome has been totally in support of the proposal with only positive comments and no concerns. Purpose The purpose and objectives of the stakeholder consultation were to: • Understand the diversity of views of local stakeholders towards the proposed Free School • Explain the process of setting up a Free School • Provide reassurance and accurate information to any stakeholders who might have concerns about the project • Begin to build links with key education, business, and community contacts with which the Free School could develop ongoing links as part of its development • Survey the opinions of parents/carers and the wider community and draw together where appropriate the differing aspirations, needs and requirements of stakeholders This report sets out the methods of consultation used and the responses received. Concern and Opposition There was no opposition or concern put forward throughout the consultation period. Support The proposals were exceptionally well‐supported by the all of the stakeholders that responded – the community wants to see the proposals go ahead. Stakeholders recognise the numerous benefits the Free School will bring to young people in Burnley (and possibly beyond the surrounding area). All of the views expressed by the questionnaire respondents were in support of the proposal. Conclusion and Recommendations On the basis of the overall support expressed for the proposals it is recommended that the Academy Trust: 1 Enters into a Funding Agreement with the Secretary of State to open The Heights Burnley as a new Free School 2 Make the consultation report available on the website Introduction and Proposal The Heights Burnley will form part of the Education Partnership Trust (EPT) which is a not-for-profit multi-academy trust and academy sponsor with a proven track record in delivering alternative provision. The EPT also sponsors The Heights Blackburn, Coal Clough Academy, Pleckgate High School and Eden School. has an absolute determination to deliver outstanding education enabling pupils to develop confidence, resilience and employability; so they can progress into education, employment and training. We have worked closely with schools and key stakeholders to ensure a shared vision for the The Heights Burnley and we believe the evidence of that commitment is well demonstrated in this proposal. Why is it different to other schools? The Heights Burnley is an Alternative Provision Free School - it is funded directly by the Department for Education and is independent of local authorities, although we are working closely with Schools and Burnley Borough Council to deliver our vision. The school will be free to design its own curriculum and to meet the needs of these pupils. Like all schools, The Heights Burnley will be inspected by OFSTED. Key Features and Overall Vision The Heights Burnley is an Alternative Provision Free School and will be offering 150 full time equivalent places for learners in Key Stages 2,3 and 4 who have found it difficult to achieve in their mainstream setting. The academy will be based in a brand new, purpose built building in Burnley. Working in close partnership with our local schools, local authorities, the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA), the Department for Education (DfE) and parents/carers, we will deliver highly personalised learning programmes to develop academic achievement, vocational skills and personal and social development en route to employment, education and training. The Heights Burnley will provide high quality vocational education from state of the art facilities in addition to the core subjects of English, mathematics and science and will offer specialist provision to those young people who would benefit from specific support to achieve educational success. Curriculum and Learning Approach to Curriculum and Learning The Heights Burnley is committed to delivering a curriculum that will be broad and balanced

  • Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool
    Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool Introduction Lancashire is committed to achieving excellent outcomes for its children and young people. Our aim for all our young people is for them to have the best possible start in life so that all have the opportunity to fulfill their learning potential. Schools and other settings should be safe and orderly places where all children and young people can learn and develop. The consequences of behaviour which challenges others can, if not addressed effectively, impact negatively on individual pupils and groups of pupils. The need for the Local Authority, schools and other partners to work together to address behavioural issues is essential if we are to promote high standards of achievement and attainment for all. The purpose of the Behaviour Support tool is to produce accessible, and accurate information for schools and settings in one place, on sources of training, support and advice led by Lancashire services and clear pathways in relation to meeting pupil's social, emotional and behavioural needs. Aims 1. To develop safe, calm and ordered school environments within which pupils are able to learn and develop and thrive. 2. To develop skills for emotional literacy, positive social relationships and emotional health and well-being among pupils to take into their adult lives beyond school. 3. To Improve capacity within our schools and other settings to include all our pupils including those children and young people who, at times, may present very challenging behaviour, as a result of a variety of factors originating both within the child or young person or resulting from their social environment.

    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.
