  • Peak Edge Multi-Academy Trust Update
    Peak Edge Multi-Academy Trust Update Dear Parents and Carers It seems like a long while has passed since we last wrote to you about our progress in establishing our Multi-Academy Trust called “Peak Edge”. While we did experience a delay as a result of the uncertainty around school funding, we are now reaching the end of the conversion process and have been getting excited about working together more closely as a group of schools. Since we last wrote to you, Peak Edge has appointed Trustees to govern the Trust; please find attached to this letter information about who they are and their background. We feel we have appointed a strong team of trustees with a wide range of relevant expertise, all of whom are committed to the values of Peak Edge. Together with the Headteachers and Governors, they have established the Articles of Association and Schemes of Delegation for Peak Edge, which lay out how the Trust will operate as it supports the schools to deliver fun and engaging teaching and learning, an inspiring work place for staff and ultimately ensure all children reach their full potential. The Trust has also secured some additional funding that will be used to help staff share expertise and support each other across the schools. We would like to remind parents again at this stage that Peak Edge will be our own independent converter multi academy trust and is not being sponsored or run by any other organisation. Peak Edge has now been incorporated as a Trust. Although it depends on finalising land use agreements with the Local Authority, we expect that Loxley Primary, Nook Lane Junior and Oughtibridge Primary schools will become Academies in the Trust on December 1st, that Bradfield Dungworth Primary and Stannington Infants will follow on January 1st 2019 and that Wharncliffe Side Primary will follow as soon as is possible after that.

  • New Peak District Boundary Walk
    THE NEWSLETTER OF THE SHEFFIELD GROUP OF THE RAMBLERS MAY 2017! The Sheffield Rambler Spirit of Kinder Day, April 22nd at Edale. Vanessa Griffiths New Chief Executive Stuart Maconie President of the Ramblers Anyone who was there that day, and there were many of us, can certainly feel that we have passionate and influential people looking after our interests in walking around Kinder and many other places in the UK. The speakers were: Dame Helen Ghosh, Director General of the National Trust; Stephen Trotter, Director of the Wildlife Trusts; Jon Stewart, General Manager of the National Trust in the Peak District, and Vanessa Griffiths, the new Chief Ex- ecutive of the Ramblers. Vanessa also took the opportunity to introduce Stuart Maconie as the New President of the Ramblers. Stuart is a well known writer and broadcaster and a pas- sionate advocate of walking and walkers’ rights. A new book Clarion Call was launched at the event, quite a fitting time and place, the 85th anniversary of the Kinder Trespass and in the shadow of Kinder Scout. The "master of ceremonies" was Rony Robinson of Radio Sheffield and the event was closed with songs and a mini-play by Sally Goldsmith, local singer and songwriter. Very many people commented it was an inspirational event. Not only can we, the participants, be inspired by such speakers but, in turn, the speakers can them- selves be inspired by such a large and responsive audience. In these uncertain times it is good to know that there is wide interest and support for walking. Terry Howard ! PAGE 1 THE NEWSLETTER OF THE SHEFFIELD GROUP OF THE RAMBLERS MAY 2017!
