Thank you for the help you gave during the inspection and for the time you made available to discuss the actions that have been taken since the school’s previous monitoring inspection. The inspection was the second monitoring inspection since the school became subject to special measures following the inspection that took place in January 2018. The full list of the areas for improvement that were identified during that inspection is set out in the annex to this letter. The monitoring inspection report is attached. Having considered all the evidence I am of the opinion that at this time: Leaders and managers are taking effective action towards the removal of special measures. The school’s improvement action plan is fit for purpose. Having considered all the evidence I am of the opinion that the school may appoint newly qualified teachers. I am copying this letter to the chair of the board of trustees, the chief executive officer of the Lincoln Anglican Academies Trust, the director of education for the Diocese of Lincoln, the regional schools commissioner and the director of children’s services for Lincolnshire.

  • Curriculum Document Year 9 2021
    CURRICULUM DOCUMENT YEAR 9 2021 PRINCIPAL’S WELCOME TO YEAR NINE (2021) STUDENTS Dear Parents and Guardians Thank you for continuing to trust us to be an important part of your daughter/son’s future. We know that students have a better chance to achieve their full potential when school and family work together to this end. Year Nine promises to be another exciting school year. In 2020 it has been wonderful to see the intellectual growth and maturity of the Year Eight cohort who have continued to embrace the ethos and traditions of our College in what has been a very challenging time. Their enthusiasm and cooperation have been similarly of a high order. In Year Nine, students must be committed to doing their very best in all their subjects from the beginning of the school year. Students’ academic achievement in English, Humanities Mathematics, Religious Education and Science, as shown on their 2021 Semester One Year Nine Report, plays a big part in determining which course level they will be allocated in Year Ten, which in turn has implications for the 2022 Year Eleven courses they will be able to select. When choosing their Year Nine elective subjects, students are very much encouraged to choose those subjects that they enjoy and/or in which they show obvious talent. I encourage students and parents to read through this Curriculum Document as they plan for Year Nine. The College staff look forward to working with the students as they take on the status, responsibilities and opportunities afforded to them as the senior students in the lower secondary school.

  • Year 9 Options 2021
    Year 9 Options 2021 Introduction The purpose of this booklet is to provide you and your parents with information which will help towards making decisions about which subjects you should study in Years 10 and 11. The end of Year 9 represents a landmark in your school life as it represents the point at which you embark on examination courses that will have a large influence on the rest of your life. Many of the subjects will be building on the skills and knowledge acquired during Years 7, 8 and 9, but there will be an opportunity to take up new subjects or specialise in areas where you have shown ability and interest. This booklet is part of the information gathering process which will help you to make your decision about which options to take. Good choices will help to make the next two years both happy and worthwhile. It is also important that you realise what you are taking on when starting on courses that lead to GCSE exams. You should think carefully before making your choices. You will be given as much help as possible. There will be revision classes and mock exams as well as many opportunities to talk to teachers about your progress. Most importantly, it will be down to you. Your success will be determined by your attendance, organisation and effort with both class and homework. 2 Key Stage 4 Rationale English Baccalaureate The English Baccalaureate (EBacc) is a performance measure for schools, awarded when students secure a grade 4 or above at GCSE level across a core of five academic subjects: English, mathematics, history or geography, the sciences and a language.

  • The Curriculum Early Year Foundation Stage Curriculum
    The Curriculum Early Year Foundation Stage Curriculum The EYFS requires us to prioritise the below overarching principles when planning our curriculum: 1. Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured. 2. Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships. 3. Children learn well and develop well in enabling environments, in which their experiences respond to their individual needs and there is a strong partnership between practitioners and parents / carers; and 4. Children develop and learn in different ways and at different rates. The framework covers the education and care of all children in Early Years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities. The National Curriculum for early years in England is divided into 7 learning areas. These learning areas comprise of three prime areas: Personal, Social and Emotional Development Communication and Language Physical Development and four specific areas: Literacy Mathematics Understanding the World Expressive Arts and Design Attainment in these learning areas is measured against 17 Early Learning Goals at the end of Foundation Stage 2. As most of our students entering Foundation 1 have little or no English we focus heavily on developing their speech through songs, rhymes and stories. This ensures children acquire English in a fun and engaging manner. In Foundation stage 1, we also begin the school year teaching ‘Letters and Sounds’ Phase 1 which is the prelude to phonics. In Phase 1 the emphasis is on developing a child’s listening and speaking skills. Seven aspects are covered within Phase 1: 1.

To meet statutory requirements for students’ entitlement to learning . To ensure that students develop essential functional skills in literacy, numeracy and ICT . To provide students with an appropriate curriculum which enables them to reach their potential and gain the best opportunities for progression . To ensure that students develop their personal, learning and thinking skills . To promote students’ spiritual and moral development . To develop students’ capacity for independent and lifelong learning CURRICULUM STRUCTURE In Jesmond Park Academy there are 30 periods per week, each lasting 50 minutes, with an additional 20 minutes at the start of each day for tutorial time and assemblies. Students in Years 7‐11 are timetabled for 30 periods, and have the option of participating in the programme of extra‐curricular activities in Period 7 on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. The number of lessons for which students in Years 12 and 13 are timetabled depends on their study programme (the number and type of courses they take); all have some periods of free time for private study during the school day, some of which may be designated as study periods to be spent in the Library or other learning facility.

  • Curriculum Overview Curriculum Intent
    Curriculum Overview Curriculum Intent At Middleton Technology School we believe that the curriculum should reflect the needs of our students in supporting them to make exceptional progress and be work/college ready. The curriculum is the foundation on which our school is built; it is where students learn, and where they learn how to learn. Our curriculum is designed to ensure that our students are equipped to study or work in any establishment of their choosing and prepares them for adult life in a 21st century world. Our curriculum is a knowledge-enabled curriculum. The foundations are built on a deep and broad knowledge base where students will acquire information and learn effective strategies for remembering it. Armed with a firm grasp of subject knowledge our students will develop skills in application of knowledge. Through debate and discussion our students will aim to deepen their understanding and learn to make informed decisions about issues at a range of scales. They will develop effective written and verbal communication skills that allow them to articulate their views and show respect for the views of others. Our students will grow in both independence and resilience as the culture of learning from mistakes and improving work grows across the five years. Our curriculum is supported by a range of experiences, both curricular and extra-curricular that enriches academic development and personal growth. From subject specific learning experiences to sports teams and performing arts clubs our curriculum is a school-wide approach that extends beyond the classroom for every student regardless of background or circumstance.
