  • Education in the New Addington Area Update
    Education in the New Addington Area New Addington is an area of high deprivation in Croydon where the majority of children would be deemed ‘disadvantaged’ or are part of families that are ‘just about managing’, a term used in the Government consultation “Schools that work for everyone”. The area has historically been dominated by low- aspirational white British families but is now seeing an increasing number of immigrant (sub-Sahara African and Eastern European) families moving into the area, creating new challenges for the six primary schools1 in New Addington. These schools have very different characteristics: Ofsted ratings range from Outstanding to Inadequate; most are now academies (two of which are converter); the majority of schools are undersubscribed creating financial pressures; and the reputation of each school is not linked to its academic achievement. Rowdown Primary School has traditionally had a poor reputation, yet has been regularly ranked second or third out of the six in the DfE Performance Tables2. Aspirational parents have their children go to Fairchildes and Wolsey Infants, both of which are oversubscribed, whether they research performance or listen to public opinion. Others just send their child to the nearest school leaving Rowdown and Castle Hill (situated in the most deprived part of New Addington) as the poor relations. This means Rowdown has often been at the lower end of the rankings after Early Years (ranking in the bottom 5% of all Croydon primary schools in 2011-2014) and that Reception cohorts are generally around 45-50 pupils only. Rowdown manages to achieve expected progress3 in line with national average4, one of only two schools in New Addington that can claim this in 2015, the other being its academy sponsor, Fairchildes.

  • Appendix 6:Explanation of Fair Access Process and Breakdown of School Referals
    Appendix 6:Explanation of Fair Access Process and breakdown of school referals. The School Admissions code requires each Local Authority to agree a fair access protocol with the majority of schools in its area to ensure that the most vulnerable children are found a place in a school without delay. The code instructs Local Authorities that the list of children considered under the protocol should be agreed locally but must include the following that can have difficulty obtaining a school place a) children from the criminal justice system or Pupil Referral Units who need to be reintegrated into mainstream education; b) children who have been out of education for two months or more; c) children of Gypsies, Roma, Travellers, refugees and asylum seekers; d) children who are homeless; e) children with unsupportive family backgrounds for whom a place has not been sought; f) children who are carers; and g) children with special educational needs, disabilities or medical conditions (but without a statement or Education, Health and Care Plan) Cases presented at Secondary Fair Access Panel by School in 2017/18 309 pupil referrals were considered by the Fair Access Panel during the 2017/18 academic year. 101 cases were presented at panel as pupils requiring school places who were unable to be placed though the normal admissions procedures When cases were presented at panel by schools in 2017/18 they were considered under the following categories: A. Avoidance. Cases were presented in this category when a pupil was at risk of permanent exclusion B. Prevention. Cases were presented in this category when it was judged by the school that a pupil would benefit from a fresh start in another setting C.
