The evening will feature a varied programme of musical performances by talented students from Year 7, all the way up to Year 12.

If you would like to support this event then tickets can be bought via ParentPay. Adult tickets are £4 and Children are £2. This will also entitle you to a free drink and a programme.

A group of our students expressed an interest in laying a wreath in Dartford as part of the Remembrance Sunday commemoration, on behalf of Wilmington Academy.This was organised with the support of The British Legion, and the wreath was laid alongside the many others at the War Memorial in the town centre by Michael Evans, Denver Coleman, Conor Jackson, Tom Baker and Taylen Leaver-Gritter. It was very moving to see our students take part in an event of such importance to the community. During the morning we saw over 25 Wilmington students that were there as part of uniformed organisations, which is very impressive and is a shining example of our students commitment to their communities. Wilmington Academy presents Hairspray Both Minerva and Apollo students have been working very hard on the Wilmington Academy Players’ new production of the musical classic ‘Hairspray’ This will be Wilmington’s biggest and best production to date, with the largest cast we have ever seen! Over the first weeks of rehearsals, the students have demonstrated outstanding dedication, collaboration, and persistence in the development of the project. Come out and support the entire cast and crew on Friday the 20th of March and Saturday the 21st of March at 7:30 pm in our brand new lecture theatre! Tickets are £3 for students, £5 for adults and will go on sale closer to the performance dates. Keep a close eye out for updates throughout the year! C. Fallowfield Wilmington’s Published Poets Back in the summer, some Minerva students completed the “War of Words” poetry competition run by Young Writers. The brief was to write an original poem about war and conflict. Our discussions in class were around different types of war and the different meanings of conflict. Students worked really hard on their poems and wrote some excellent pieces which were submitted to Young Writers. In October, it was my pleasure to receive notification that ten students from Wilmington Academy had been successful in having their poems published in the “War of Words” anthology. Congratulations to: Erika Pitcher, Smriti Gurung, Matthew Swyer, Nicole Sampson, Emily Rayner, Yubin Garbuja, Matthew Ray and Cameron Goddard. B. Burwood Marcus Alexander coming to Wilmington The author Marcus Alexander will be visiting Wilmington Academy in February 2015 with his creative writing workshops. He is author of the trilogy “Keeper of the Realms” as well being an extreme sports enthusiast. He has been sand boarding in the Sahara, climbed ice flows in the Khumbu Glacier and does kickboxing and martial arts. Marcus will be speaking to the students about his love for extreme sports, the unusual foods he has eaten (dog, monkey brains and grasshopper), the unique people he has met on his travels (Bedouin, Karen freedom fighters) and how this has inspired his writing. He will also be speaking about the seven life changing reasons why reluctant readers must pick up books and how to find inspiration for writing and creative thinking. D. Kennedy LEXIA Arrives at Wilmington Academy In September all students in Year 7 and 8, along with selected classes in Year 9, began a phonics based computer programme to improve their reading and speaking ability. The students get one half hour session each week in the Accelerated Reader lessons and have been making good progress. However, to make even better progress, students should be encouraged to complete two – three sessions per week on the programme. This means that students can also work on the programme at home. To download LEXIA onto your child’s tablet or computer please visit the link: http://lexialearning.com/lexiasupport/school-to-home/ Thank you for your on-going support of our commitment to developing literacy. N. Marken 1st Annual Book Day For World Book Day 2015 in March, the Academy will be running a two week festival; The 1st Annual Wilmington Academy Hunger Games. Students will have the opportunity to ‘volunteer’ to take part in various competitions and activities across the fortnight which will earn them points for their tutor group. Then the winning tutor group will be crowned Victors! May the odds be ever in your favour. N. Marken Breakthrough Bake Off Sale Two Post 16 students, Sevilen Sunassee and Louis Newman- Peters organised the Breakthrough Bake Off cake sale for Breast Cancer Research. Students and staff donated cakes and cookies and they were sold at break and lunch time. The event was well organised and they raised £96.20. Katie Durant and Kayla Fitton also helped with the sale. J. Murty Work Experience 2015 Every year we encourage Year 12 students to take part in our two week work experience scheme. We expect them to work in placements linked to their chosen career, university choices or A level courses. Every year it gets harder to find placements that will be of benefit to them and the company they work in, without being a burden. A plea from the Academy if you have contacts or happen to work in any of the following professions, would you be willing to help place one of our Year 12 students? We all had to start somewhere and you might just find a future employee who is a real gem! Placements needed: Banking, Medicine, Midwifery, Garages, Art (including art shops), Solicitors, Travel agents, Care homes, Theatres, Estate agents, ICT, PE, Accountancy, Pharmacy, Graphic design or Media. T. Murphy Year 11 History Since September, all Year 11 History GCSE students have been carrying out their controlled assessment enquiry on political change in the 1970s and 1980s. As part of this work, students even took part in a re-enactment of the 1982 Miner’s Strike. Whilst Wilmington’s version was policed in a slightly more civilised manner, students were able to connect to the passion felt by all involved. Being able to empathise with the delicate subject matter in this way has ensured that the students are well prepared to undertake their controlled assessment assignments before the Christmas break. When completed and marked, the controlled assessment will represent 25% of students’ overall History GCSE. Students will then spend January-May revising for their remaining summer exams, determined to achieve their target grades. R. Leitch Post 16 Poetry Post-16 English have done a brilliant job in the first round of Poetry by Heart.

  • SFA Case Study Orchards Academy
    Inspiring the Future Case Study Orchards Academy Careers Talk Orchards Academy is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located in Swanley in the English county of Kent. The school also operates a vocational sixth form, where students have the option to study from a range of further BTECs. In its 2012 inspection Orchards academy was awarded a rating of 2, good, “Orchards Academy is a good and rapidly improving school. Students’ achievement has improved considerably since the previous inspection and is now good. GCSE results have risen substantially in recent years. Students throughout the school, including those who are disabled or who have special educational needs, make good progress from their starting points”1. Introduction to the event: The idea of the event was to help young people better understand apprenticeships. Research is consistent that young people’s knowledge of apprenticeships is often limited, especially in terms of how they can best prepare themselves to get onto one when they leave education. One of the best ways to give them access to such information is to give them the chance to hear directly from people in work with first-hand experience of apprenticeships. Students involved were age 14-15 years. How it worked We hosted an apprenticeships careers talk. Peter Cobrin volunteered through Inspiring the Future and delivered an interactive presentation on what an apprenticeship involved and how to apply for one. Peter is a leading educationalist and apprenticeships advocate, previously the director of Not Going to Uni, he set up Employment Pathways a “campaigning organisation working with employers, educators, training providers and policy makers to ensure that talent is given a chance in the workplace”2.

    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.
