  • Building Character the Civitas Way
    Civitas The Official Magazine of Ark Academy #13 Autumn 2014 Autumn #13 Building Character the Civitas Way Building Character the Civitas Way Warm Welcome… Dear Parents, This edition of Civitas is entitled ‘Building Character the Civitas way’. How do we all build character? Well, certainly we can try and model it and we have also talked a great deal about great character traits in assemblies and tutor periods. We have focussed on resilience, integrity and gratitude. These have produced some really reflective moments. The last assembly helped us reflect on what we are grateful for, it is so easy to assume that what we have is the norm, and of course so much is not. So I am grateful to our students and staff for going that extra mile in Charity Week (marvellous moments abound but ‘Strictly’ will be forever a favourite) . I am grateful for my good health this tiring term and all the people who have supported me, and more importantly, the school. I am grateful to the teachers and support staff who step up to the plate when other staff are sick. Students who help each other and particularly help students catch up with or help understand their work. Then there is integrity or doing the right thing when no-one is watching. Please look at our ‘Good Deed Feed’, it warms the heart. There are many unsung heroes, who model what we aspire to be – good citizens, friendly, supportive, kind and life enablers. These are traits that lead for a happy life. Resilience.....aaah the Holy Grail.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract of Thesis This thesis examines the birth of secondary education for Jews in England, focusing on the middle classes as defined in the text. This study explores various types of secondary education that are categorised under one of two generic terms - Jewish secondary education or secondary education for Jews. The former describes institutions, offered by individual Jews, which provided a blend of religious and/or secular education. The latter focuses on non-Jewish schools which accepted Jews (and some which did not but were, nevertheless, attended by Jews). Whilst this work emphasises London and its environs, other areas of Jewish residence, both major and minor, are also investigated.

  • How Ark Academy Is Celebrating the London 2012 Olympics Through Living Its Values Every Day
    ARK ACADEMY’S OFFICIAL MAGAZINE Issue #6 Summer Term 2012 Special Olympic Edition: How Ark Academy is celebrating the London 2012 Olympics through living its values every day. 1 Dear Parents/Carers In this year of the Olympics – I think we can safely say that our sporting successes have surpassed all expectations and as I write there are more honours to be contested – so fingers crossed! We have also just finished the wettest secondary sports day I have ever know (the pictures of primary sports day in sunshine tell a very different story). The competition was excellent – some real athletes in the making – the support of the house teams demonstrated respect and friendship and we all showed true grit, determination and courage to get through such difficult conditions and with absolutely no moaning. I was very proud! So this day demonstrated to me, like the Olympics, was much more than just a sporting competition and the Olympic ideals of respect, excellence, friendship, courage, determination, inspiration and equality really are truly reflected by our four core values. This Olympic edition of the CIVITAS magazine highlights these ideals in a very tangible Ark Academy way. Of course we will all have our own specific memories of the year, from the courage and friendship shown by Year 7 on the Kingswood trip, to the excellence and inspiration of our first music concert in Ark. Unfortunately, my memory is selective, so I really welcome the final CIVITAS edition of 2011/2012 reminding us of all that has happened throughout the year and the sheer extent of engagement by our pupils.

BRENT2020.CO.UK 2 THE A-Z OF BRENT’S BLACK MUSIC HISTORY This A-Z is largely a republishing of Kwaku’s research for the ‘Brent Black Music History Project’ published by BTWSC in 2007. Kwaku’s work is a testament to Brent’s contribution to the evolution of British black music and the commercial infrastructure to support it. His research contained separate sections on labels, shops, artists, radio stations and sound systems. In this version we have amalgamated these into a single ‘encyclopedia’ and added entries that cover the period between 2007-2020. The process of gathering Brent’s musical heritage is an ongoing task - there are many incomplete entries and gaps.

  • Ark Academy Admissions
    Ark Academy Admissions - Proposal to Change Oversubscription Criterion Summary Ark Academy is proposing to change its oversubscription criterion for admission from a dual to a single point of entry. For applications to Ark Academy based on distance from the school, 25% of the places are currently allocated to children who live closest to the school using straight line measurement from the main entrance of the school to the main entrance to the child’s home. The remaining 75% are allocated to children who live closest to Fawood Children’s Centre in Harlesden. This second point of entry is 2.8 kilometres from the school and requires a 35-minute bus journey and, for some children, two separate bus journeys. There are three rationales for the proposed change: (1) there has been a significant change in circumstances in the London Borough of Brent over the past 1o years, reducing the need for the original admissions criterion; (2) the current criterion have considerable downsides, as accepting pupils from a second catchment area 2.8 kilometres from the school gates has led to persistent punctuality issues, disruption to classes each morning and a resulting negative impact on learning; and (3) the area immediately surrounding Ark Academy remains among the most deprived areas in the country and is currently not being served by the school. The last public consultation on Ark Academy’s admissions criteria was in 2013. Ark Schools is submitting the proposed changes to the admissions policy for public consultation, with responses requested by 21 December 2018. Taking account of the feedback it receives, Ark Schools will then make a decision on the admissions policy.
