Summary 1.1 This report is in response to the statutory requirement to consult on the City Council’s admission arrangements. The report provides details of the proposed arrangements for managing admissions and prioritizing admission to oversubscribed schools, for the 2013/14 academic year. The admission procedures aim to contribute to the specific corporate ambition of supporting “Successful young people” by assisting parents to access their preferred schools and especially to assist carers access places for children in public care quickly. Children achieve better when they are happy at school. Attendance rates are higher and children are provided with the best opportunity to be active and engaged. The Authority’s Sixth Form admission policy provides an opportunity for young people to remain engaged in education beyond the statutory school leaving age. These proposed admission procedures aim to significantly contribute to “Raising attainment and aspiration”, improve outcomes for “Looked After Children” contribute to the creation of “safe, healthy and strong families” 1.2 The City Council retains its catchment area policy which continues to receive strong support from parents. This in turn this helps to create and sustain strong communities and a sense of identity within neighbourhoods. 1.3 The timetable for consultation on the admission arrangements and co- ordinated schemes is as follows: November/December 2011 Consultation on the proposed admission arrangements and co-ordinated schemes with Community, Voluntary Aided, Trust and Foundation Schools, Academies and neighbouring Authorities. Consultation with parents of all children aged 2-16 years. November 2011 Presentation of arrangements to the statutory Admission Forum for final consideration. The Local Authority must have regard to any advice or recommendations of the Forum 1 January 2012 Local Authority must determine co-ordinated schemes for 2013/14 29 February 2012 Consideration of admission arrangements and co- ordinated schemes by Cabinet March/April 2012 Adoption of schemes by neighbouring Authorities Adoption of schemes by Voluntary Aided, Trust and Foundation schools and Academies. 15 April 2012 The Secretary of State must be provided with a copy of the co-ordinated schemes for 2013/14 by 15 April. Failure to agree schemes will result in one being imposed on the Authority and its neighouring Authorities. 1 Report to Cabinet 21 March 2012 Children, Young People and Families Service 1.3 The Cabinet is requested to consider the recommendations made at Paragraph 20 of this report. 2. What does this mean for Sheffield people? 2.1 Applying for school places can be a very stressful procedure for parents and the Authority aims to ensure that as many children as possible are offered places at their preferred school. The procedures set out the way that parents can apply for school places and looks to maximize choice and opportunity. The City Council’s admission arrangements contribute to the Corporate Plan “Standing up for Sheffield” by enabling and empowering parents, carers and young people to have a voice in the type of school they wish to attend. 2.2 No Admission Authority can guarantee that all parents can access places at their school of first preference. These arrangements do however enable the vast majority of parents to obtain places at their first preference school and a significant number to obtain places at their second or third preferred school. Parents are provided with comprehensive advice and guidance to enable them to make informed decisions to achieve the best outcomes for their children. Catchment areas remain popular amongst parents with 78.7% being allocated places at their catchment area school for the secondary transfer in September 2011. Details about specific outcomes for September 2011 are provided at paragraph 4.2. 3. Outcomes and Sustainability 3.1 The Authority operates under the provisions of the statutory Admission Code of Practice which aims to provide local communities with a greater voice when it comes to issues such as school places and the types of schools they want for their children. 3.2 Sheffield residents are treated fairly and equitably. The Authority ensures that all schools comply with the rules laid down by the Code of Practice. 3.3 The Local Authority co-ordinates applications with other Admission Authorities on behalf of parents so that they only have to make a single application. The Local Authority is also the body that makes a single offer to the parent, ensuring transparency and consistency. 2 Report to Cabinet 21 March 2012 Children, Young People and Families Service 4. Main Report 4.1 The Authority’s admission arrangements fully comply with the requirements of the statutory School Admissions Code of Practice. 4.2 The existing arrangements and co-ordinated schemes produce extremely positive outcomes for parents. For the September 2011 entry to secondary school 93.8% of parents secured places at their first preferred secondary school, this compares with 86.4% nationally. A further 4.8% secured places at their second or third preference. In other words 98.6% of all parents were offered a place for their children at one of their three preferred secondary schools. For the September 2011 entry to Reception 91.9% of first preferences were met and a further 6% of second and third preferences were satisfied. Finally for the 2011 transfer to separate Junior schools 98% of applicants were allocated their first preference and 1% secured their second and third preference schools. 4.3 The Local Authority assesses the admission arrangements and co- ordinated schemes to identify any possible barriers to families accessing the services. Action has been taken to overcome possible barriers such as language or a lack of understanding of the system. Additionally, the Admissions Service monitors the return of application forms and outcomes by ethnicity. 4.4 Sheffield Park, Sheffield Springs, Parkwood High and Yewlands Academies will continue to apply the same admission arrangements and oversubscription criteria as Sheffield City Council for the 2013/14 academic year, as will Meadowhead, Chaucer, Firth Park and Westfield Trust Schools. 4.5 The Governing Body of Forge Valley Community Foundation School has agreed that it will retain the Local Authority’s admission arrangements at statutory school age for 2013/14 academic year. 4.6 The Authority’s proposed arrangements have been considered and endorsed by the local Admission Forum. 5. New Statutory Admission Code 5.1 The Government introduced a new Admission Code of Practice on 1

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.

    University of Kent's Institution Contextual Flag All schools on this list meet the requirements for the University of Kent's Institution Contextual Flag. The Institution Contextual Flag is given to all institutions whose data indicates that they perform in the bottom 40% nationally for KS5 results reported by the Department for Education each year. We use the average point school per entry and where data is not available, we use KS4 result, if available. In order to make this more reliable we look at data over a three year period to see if they are low performing for at least two out of the last three years. In cases where an Institution is flagged, but subsequently closes, the flag will be retained and the institution will continue to appear on the list. We use the Institution supplied by you in your UCAS application (the UCAS centre or Last Institution) to identify whether it has a Contextual Flag. Please note: independent schools are not included, neither do we have data from government agencies in Scotland and Northern Ireland and therefore these cannot be given a flag. Similarly, there may be schools or colleges which have recently changed name, status or have merged and this has resulted in no data being reported by the Department of Education , in these instances we will not be able to assess the Institution for a Contextual Flag.
