    Title: Oakbank Author: Department for Education (DfE) Impact Assessment – Section 9 Academies Act Duty 1. Section 9 of the Academies Act 2010 places a duty upon the Secretary of State to take into account what the impact of establishing the additional school would be likely to be on maintained schools, Academies and institutions within the further education sector in the area in which the additional school is (or is proposed to be) situated. 2. Any adverse impact will need to be balanced against the benefits of establishing the new school. Background 3. Oakbank is an 11-16 school for 560 pupils, due to open in September 2012 with 84 pupils in Year 7. It was proposed by existing Academy sponsor CfBT in partnership with a parent group known locally as WoW (standing for west of Wokingham). The group feel that those living in the rural villages to the West of Wokingham are disadvantaged in securing a school place for their children as a result of the admissions arrangements for other schools in Wokingham which prioritise children living closest to schools. They feel that this means that they get “what’s left”, and have to travel long distances past their closest school. It was envisaged that establishing Oakbank would provide a school closer to home to which these children would be admitted. 4. Oakbank will be situated on the site of the old Ryeish Green School in Wokingham Borough. It is, however, closer to Reading than it is to the town of Wokingham, although the M4 separates the school from the south of Reading.

  • School Newsletter Issue 4 28Th March 2013 Note from the Headmaster Undoubtedly the Lent Term Has Been an Extremely Busy One
    Reading School Erleigh Road, Reading, RG15LW. School Newsletter Issue 4 28th March 2013 Note from the Headmaster Undoubtedly the Lent Term has been an extremely busy one. Not only has extensive learning taken place in the classroom, but also there has been a plethora of school educational visits, exchange programmes, sporting fixtures and other enrichment activities. Recently we have been inspired by the wit and wisdom of the renowned poet, Simon Armitage, along with the knowledge of Professor GW Bernard and the precision of Old Redingensian, Nick Bion. In addition, staff and students alike have been involved in the successful „Great Debate til Eight‟ supported by our local MP, Rob Wilson. Whilst the highlight of the Lent Term for the prefects may have been the recent 4-3 victory over the staff football team, personally it was the inspiring world premiere of Harry Davidson‟s composition Type II in the Spring Concert. World Class indeed! I hope that our students in Years 11-13 preparing for external examinations ensure that they spend time with their families as well as undertake extensive revision. I wish everyone a very Happy Easter. Mr A Robson, Headmaster Simon Armitage Visit Poet Simon Armitage visited on Friday March 22nd, bringing the snows of Yorkshire on his shoes. He read from some of his prose and poetry for Sixth Form English Literature students, and later read and talked to Year 11 students about some of his best known poems. In the process, he talked of how his love of poetry was inspired by reading Ted Hughes‟s work at the age of 15.
