I must thank Dr. Alain Saint-Saens for his generous encouragement and advice concerning not only graduate work but the historian's profession in general; also Dr. Joseph Byrnes for so kindly serving on my committee at such short notice. To Dr. Ron Petrin I extend my heartfelt appreciation for his unflagging concern for my academic progress; our relationship has been especially rewarding on both an academic and personal level. In particular I would like to thank my friend and mentor, Dr. Paul Bischoff who has guided my explorations of the medieval world and its denizens. His dogged--and occasionally successful--efforts to develop my skills are directly responsible for whatever small progress I may have made as an historian. To my friends and fellow teaching assistants I extend warmest thanks for making the past two years so enjoyable. For the many hours of comradeship and mutual sympathy over the trials and tribulations of life as a teaching assistant I thank Wendy Gunderson, Sandy Unruh, Deidre Myers, Russ Overton, Peter Kraemer, and Kelly McDaniels.

  • Wakefield Metropolitan District Council Home to School Transport
    WAKEFIELD METROPOLITAN DISTRICT COUNCIL HOME TO SCHOOL TRANSPORT POST 16 TRANSPORT POLICY 2018/2019 eport on: Transport policy statement for learners aged 16-18 in further education and training and continuing learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities aged 19 and over ACADEMIC YEAR: 2018/2019 1 1. SUMMARY OF POLICY STATEMENT AND MAIN OBJECTIVES 1.1 There is no automatic entitlement to free home to school or college transport once a student is over 16 years. Responsibility for making appropriate transport arrangements rests with a student and/or parents/carers. 1.2 Providing assisted transport (e.g. taxis, specially adapted vehicles) will only be provided in exceptional circumstances. 1.3 Wakefield Council is committed to ensuring that every child and young person can fulfil their potential. The aim of this policy is that all children and young people with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) should lead lives that are as independent and as free from restriction as possible and that each child and young person is supported to achieve independent travel wherever practicable. 1.4 This policy explains the entitlement to travel assistance for children and young people post 16. Wakefield Council’s policies on travel to and from school and other establishments for statutory aged pupils and statutory aged pupils with special educational needs are available separately. 1.5 The main objective of the Wakefield Transport Partnership is to provide accessibility to education or training as a means of promoting learning, training, social inclusion, choice and diversity of learning provision. The central principal is that no learner should be prevented from taking part in full-time education (not less than 12 guided learning hours per week) or training because of the lack of support travelling to an education or training or learning provision or where appropriate, an independent specialist institution.
