  • The Stourbridge School of Art and Its Relations with the Glass Industry of the Stourbridge District, 1850-1905
    A PROVINCIAL SCHOOL OF ART AND LOCAL INDUSTRY: THE STOURBRIDGE SCHOOL OF ART AND ITS RELATIONS WITH THE GLASS INDUSTRY OF THE STOURBRIDGE DISTRICT, 1850-1905 by JAMES SCOTT MEASELL A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham April 2016 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT Founded in 1851, the Stourbridge School of Art offered instruction in drawing, art and design to students engaged in industries, especially glass. Using social history methodology and primary sources such as Government reports, local newspapers and school records, this thesis explores the school’s development from 1850 to 1905 and explicates its relationships with the local glass industry. Within the context of political, economic, social and cultural forces, the school contributed to the town’s civic culture and was supported by gentry, clergy and industrialists. The governing Council held public meetings and art exhibitions and dealt with management issues. Working class men attended evening classes. Women from wealthy families attended morning classes.

  • Here Is My Time As School Captain Has Been One of the Always Something You Can Do, and Succeed At
    Bishop Vesey's Grammar School Inspiration and Excellence Lent Term 2 0 1 8 Message from the Head Like many other great religions and secular philosophies, the Christian season of Easter celebrates the triumph of optimism and hope over pessimism and despair. The physicist, Stephen Hawking, who died this March, powerfully embodied such optimism and hope. Hawking was Professor of Mathematics, a position previously held by Sir Isaac Newton, at Cambridge University for thirty years. Hawking was a celebrated academic, an expert on black holes and famous for popular science books such as ‘A Brief History of Time.’ He also suffered from a form of motor neurone disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, which progressed over the years and left him almost entirely paralysed. As the Headteacher of Bishop Vesey’s Grammar School, the most inspiring thing about Stephen Hawking is his humanity and mind-set: Our year as School Captain “Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder what makes the universe Will Hennessy exist. Be curious, and however difficult life may seem, there is My time as school captain has been one of the always something you can do, and succeed at. It matters that you highlights of my Vesey career. It has been a role don’t just give up.” that I have held with pride, honour and humility. As a St Albans grammar school student, Hawking was regarded as an As a Veseyan, I have developed an immense ‘ordinary student’, not a ‘top academic.’ However, in fact he went on to sense of school pride, and I have frequently taken outperform his contemporaries academically, and perhaps as a human pleasure in representing the school at formal being too.

    Contents Introduction 3 Using the Families of Schools document 7 Black Country in context 11 Family pages 16 Contextual family pages 34 Annex 1 – What it all means: footnotes and explanations 39 Annex 2 – School contact details 45 2 Introduction 1. Families of Schools: the fourth edition The first three editions of Families of Schools for Black Country Secondary schools, published in 2008, 2009 and 2010, were well received. We have been working with schools and education professionals across the Black Country to develop this fourth edition for 2011. As with previous years, this edition includes GCSE results with and without English and maths, a Contextual Value Added (CVA) measure and contextual families focusing on English as an Additional Language (EAL) and mobility. 2. How have families been grouped? Schools are grouped into families based on an average of prior attainment data and context data. Prior attainment data is the Average Key Stage 2 (KS2) Point Score (APS) for all pupils in Year 7 to Year 11 matched to Key Stage 4 data. Context data includes: • Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) data, calculated by linking individual pupil postcodes to IDACI data and compiling an average figure for each school1. • The proportion of pupils eligible to receive Free School Meals (FSM). • The IDACI and FSM school averages are combined to give an overall indicator for the School Environment (SE). • The percentage of pupils whose first language is known or believed to be other than English (EAL). • A mobility measure, defined as the percentage of pupils in Year 10 or Year 11 who have joined the school within the last 2 years (L2Y).
