  • Sapientia News March 2020
    Sapientia NEWSLETTER SAPIENTIA EDUCATION TRUST | MARCH 2020 | EDITION FIFTEEN Chief Executive Officer – Mr Jonathan Taylor CEO Update Ensuring pupils have access to a high-quality education, that is broad ranging, well-planned and extensive is a vital part of our core work. Nationally there is a renewed focus on the taught curriculum – the knowledge and skills that are taught in classrooms to ensure a progressive and well sequenced curriculum, in all subjects in all schools. It would seem that Ofsted focus relentlessly on this under their new inspection framework. In many ways it is hard to argue against this and in many schools (esp. Primary schools) this is a change of emphasis, where previously English and Maths were very much under the spotlight. Work is well under way in our schools to review and plan the wider curriculum, but it does need to be cohesive and once planned implemented immediately. Unfortunately, Ofsted have included aspects that I believe contribute to a strong ‘quality of education’ in other areas of the framework, rather than under their key ‘Quality of Education’ judgment. So many things that contribute to the overall experiences pupils gain – care, support, guidance, trips, visits, extra-curricular provision – do not appear to contribute at all to the ‘quality of education’ judgment during inspection. This narrow definition is unfortunate and, in my view, misses the point of what contributes to a great education. The taught curriculum, including the knowledge and skills taught is vitally important – and we need to ensure that learning is connected and not ‘episodic’ – one advantage of being in a Trust is that ideas, resources and expertise can be shared – please utilise our networks to benefit our children and potentially reduce your workload! I am delighted that Attleborough Academy and Fakenham Academy will be joining us shortly.

  • Sapientia NEWSLETTER SAPIENTIA EDUCATION TRUST |MARCH 2021 | EDITION TWENTYONE
    Sapientia NEWSLETTER SAPIENTIA EDUCATION TRUST |MARCH 2021 | EDITION TWENTYONE Mr Jonathan Taylor - Chief Executive Officer Dear all I would like to start by thanking all of our staff who have worked collectively to ensure a smooth return to school for all pupils from 8th March 2021. I am really proud of the support provided to pupils and families throughout the lockdown and the wider reopening periods. Our Schools have received very many messages of support and appreciation. Once again our ‘Flourish Framework’ principles are in sharp focus: Support, Achieve and Enrich. These are relevant for each and every one of our 5,500 pupils and will continue to be important once we return in the Summer. In the background we continue to work to support our schools – as well as working on school improvement, we continue to provide health and safety, HR, Financial, Governance and Estate management leadership and services. We undertake ongoing and considerable compliance work in relation to all of these areas. We recently received a ‘remote deployment’ DfE visit, looking at a range of central service functions, as well as a deeper dive into the financial operation of several schools. I am pleased to report that the main headlines are extremely positive – praising our ‘comprehensive’ strategic planning, ‘high quality’ financial leadership, our ‘large and effective central function’ and the work of our Trustees who demonstrate ‘robust challenge’ and discharge their duties effectively.’ Whilst pleasing, we are constantly seeking to improve. A major piece of work in the months ahead will be rolling out our Trust wide ICT strategy, which will be led by Mat Harnan, our Operations Director.

  • Sapientia NEWSLETTER SAPIENTIA EDUCATION TRUST |JANUARY 2021 | EDITION TWENTY
    Sapientia NEWSLETTER SAPIENTIA EDUCATION TRUST |JANUARY 2021 | EDITION TWENTY Mr Jonathan Taylor - Chief Executive Officer Dear all The Prime Minister’s announcement on 4th Jan 2021 that schools would close except for key worker and vulnerable pupils once again created a number of issues to quickly address. That we have successfully risen to the challenge yet again is testimony to the hard work and dedication of staff across all of our 16 schools. Exceptional things are taking place every single day. Within a very short period of time our secondary schools implemented lateral flow Covid testing, switched to full time remote learning and offered eligible pupils places. Our primaries also implemented their remote learning plans and several are very busy with demand for in-school places, balancing that demand with remote learning. Centrally we have updated all school risk assessments, worked with a number of staff who needed individual assessments, distributed 259 DfE funded laptops and we also faced the prospect of furloughing over 130 staff who work in boarding funded roles at Wymondham College. I make no excuses for insisting on the highest quality remote learning - our pupils are facing educational disruption that is greater than any since World War 2 - anything we can do to help them overcome this disruption is essential. Our efforts are warmly received by pupils and parents too, there have been very many positive comments about what we have provided so far. There are a huge number of ‘live lessons’ being taught across our schools and pupils should be accessing their full curriculum, in many cases this includes assemblies and class/tutor sessions too.
