SACRE and School Improvement: Appendix 1: Examination data…………………….………………………………… Appendix 2: Diversity in Christianity ……………………………………………… Appendix 3: SACRE Membership and attendance for the year 2016/2017…… 2 Learning and growing through challenging RE Foreword from the Chair of SACRE September 2017 - July 2018 As with any organisation it is the inspiration given by the members that provides the character. I shall focus on some of the creativity we have valued in Bucks SACRE this year both from our members and during our visits to schools. In addition, we receive wise counsel from our Education Officer at Bucks CC, Katherine Wells and our RE Adviser Bill Moore. At our meeting in October we learned that Suma Din our Muslim deputy had become a school governor and would no longer fulfil her role with SACRE. However, her legacy to us is her book published by the Institute of Education Press entitled ‘Muslim Mothers and their children’s schooling.’ See SACRED 7, for a review. (For this and all other references to SACRED see the website at the end of this section). In her contribution to SACRED 6 Suma wrote; From the Qur’an, I understand my role as being a ‘steward’ on this earth; one who will take care, take responsibility and hand on a legacy to those who come after them. -
Global Schools Practice Contents
Perrett Laver Global Schools Practice Contents Introduction 01 International Schools 03 UK Independent Schools 08 UK Independent Preparatory Schools 17 UK Maintained Sector 21 Other Senior Leadership Appointments 25 Contact Us 31 Introduction We established our Global Schools Practice to respond to some of the challenges we had observed in the way in which the sector has traditionally appointed its leaders. We are intentionally different, and we seek to add value through our creative thinking, original research, compelling advocacy and exceptional candidate care. These are the hallmarks of Perrett Laver’s approach. We understand how to engage with candidates from a diverse range of backgrounds, how to advocate persuasively and authentically on behalf of our clients, and ultimately how to create the conditions in which the best candidates are willing and able to engage meaningfully with an appointment process. This requires considerable care, professionalism, empathy and tenacity. We are proud of our work in the global schools sector. Our significant presence in the UK market has allowed us to expand internationally, allowing us to bring our experience, networks and reputation to bear in our work in Asia, South Africa and Australia. We share with you a selection of our appointments showcasing our work in the international schools, UK independent, preparatory and maintained sectors.

Aylesbury High School Prepare,Challenge & Inspire
Feby 2019 Wil , wo’t o, wi y, wo’t o? Inertia is very tempting, and it’s normally easiest to say, “No”, or “Can’t be bothered” and staying firmly in one’s comfort zone, and under the real or metaphorical duvet. However, AHS students have been busy ‘seizing the day’ this half term and making the most of every opportunity as will be apparent when you read these pages. Our ears are still buzzing from two wonderful House Music evenings where the 23 Year 12 House Captains did a great job organising 201 performers to interpret the theme of Inspiring Women. Looking forward, a good number of students (167 at the last count) are travelling to Washington, Spain (2), Gibraltar, France and Italy over half term, so bon voyage to all of them. As will be evident from Highlights, students and staff alike have put in an enormous amount of effort this half term, both in and out of the classroom, so I hope everyone has a well-deserved break next week and, whether or not on a school trip, returns refreshed and ready to make the most of every opportunity that turns up at AHS - if in doubt, go for it! Alan Rosen Aylesbury High School Prepare,Challenge & Inspire For the latest school news, visit: www.ahs.bucks.sch.uk Follow us on Twitter: @aylesburyhigh German Debating Competition At the end of last term, four students from Year 12 competed in a German speaking competition against the Royal Grammar School, in High Wycombe, organised by the Goethe Institut. -

Lynne Gibson – Dovedale Designs – member of the community Katie Galvin – Community Safety Manager Welcome and introductions made. It was highlighted that the neighbourhood survey results have some confidential information within the free text. Please only share the bar graph with others and not the free text. All agreed. TVP Chiltern Area Policing Priorities: A reduction in residential burglary A reduction in serious violence An improvement in victim satisfaction Continued improvement in our response to domestic abuse victimisation An increase in confidence of victims of hidden harm to report incidents and crimes A continued improvement in the identification and safeguarding of children and adults vulnerable to exploitation. A continued increase in the confidence of rural communities to report crime A continued improvement in our response to fraud (including cyber fraud) A discussion was had to show that the above priorities set by the Police and Crime Commissioner is often different to the priorities that the neighbourhood wish to see being addressed. #cleanChesham is taking place this Saturday. This is a great example of the community (led by EC) addressing a local issue (littering) rather than expecting the police to tackle it. -

Bourne End Academy
Bourne End Academy Headteacher: Mr L Muhammad New Road Bourne End Buckinghamshire SL8 5BW T: 01628 819022 F: 01628 810689 E: [email protected] www.E-ACT.org.uk Consultation 5 December 2019 Dear Parent/Carer Expansion of Catchment Area I am writing to advise that Bourne End Academy is consulting on changing its catchment area as of September 2021 to extend towards both the villages of Burnham/Farnham Royal and areas of West Wycombe. A plan of the proposed extension is attached for your information. The plan highlights where our existing catchment area is - marked with just a solid line and no shading; where Burnham Park Academy’s catchment area was - shaded in light blue with diagonal lines; and where the proposed extension is – both areas marked by diagonal lines on either side of our existing catchment. The extension into Burnham is in response to a request from Buckinghamshire County Council for Bourne End Academy to expand the catchment as a result of the Secretary of State for Education's recent decision to close Burnham Park Academy. Bourne End Academy is therefore proposing to expand its catchment area to include all areas of the former Burnham Park catchment. Following the closure of Burnham Park Academy, children from this area for whom Bourne End Academy is the closest school are now eligible for free transport to the school (provided they live further than 3 miles away or their walking route is deemed unsafe). The extension into the Great Marlow catchment area is to ensure children in rural parts of Buckinghamshire have sufficient choice of school to address peaks in demand and in response to the increased popularity of the school with parents. -
