  • Oakbank Author: Department for Education (Dfe)
    Title: Oakbank Author: Department for Education (DfE) Impact Assessment – Section 9 Academies Act Duty 1. Section 9 of the Academies Act 2010 places a duty upon the Secretary of State to take into account what the impact of establishing the additional school would be likely to be on maintained schools, Academies and institutions within the further education sector in the area in which the additional school is (or is proposed to be) situated. 2. Any adverse impact will need to be balanced against the benefits of establishing the new school. Background 3. Oakbank is an 11-16 school for 560 pupils, due to open in September 2012 with 84 pupils in Year 7. It was proposed by existing Academy sponsor CfBT in partnership with a parent group known locally as WoW (standing for west of Wokingham). The group feel that those living in the rural villages to the West of Wokingham are disadvantaged in securing a school place for their children as a result of the admissions arrangements for other schools in Wokingham which prioritise children living closest to schools. They feel that this means that they get “what’s left”, and have to travel long distances past their closest school. It was envisaged that establishing Oakbank would provide a school closer to home to which these children would be admitted. 4. Oakbank will be situated on the site of the old Ryeish Green School in Wokingham Borough. It is, however, closer to Reading than it is to the town of Wokingham, although the M4 separates the school from the south of Reading.

  • Newsletter November 2011
    Reading School Erleigh Road, Reading, RG15LW. School Newsletter Issue 2 23rd November 2011 Note from the Principal Dear Parents, Welcome to our second newsletter of the term and do please see our recently re-launched website for further news and information. We are pleased with the design and feel of it and would welcome any feedback or views you may have. This term has been typically busy with a host of events fresh in the memory and some very special Christmas events coming up. I would like to commend all who took part in last week‘s House Music Competition which took place at the Concert Hall. In the opinion of most, this was one of the best yet. Thank you for all your support of your son‘s music and also to Heads of House and House Prefects for the vast amount of work that went in. Well done to all Houses, but to East in particular. As you will see later in this newsletter, there is a Concert and Carol Service yet to come this term which promises yet more musical excellence. Other items of news include the rapid progress of the Refectory project. The addition of the glass recently has really started to bring the building to life. I will shortly be going to Governors with proposals for the next phases in the School‘s Development Plan and very much look forward to sharing these ideas with you imminently. Generations unite to mark Remembrance Day The chapel at Reading School was filled with pupils on the 11th of November for the Service of Remembrance.
