Freedom of Information Freedom of Information Enquiry Number – 1-728264115 Request and Response: A request for information on the monitoring of schools’ performance and progress. Q: Please provide: a copy of any documentation used in monitoring individual primary and secondary schools' performance in your local authority; a copy of your local authority's risk register for individual primary and secondary schools; and the criteria, metrics and escalation process used in the monitoring of schools under your jurisdiction. A: Local authorities (LAs) have a statutory responsibility to monitor the standard of education being provided in the local area and ensuring all learners get a good (or better) education. Collecting and analysing a wide range of progress measures, using both hard and soft intelligence, assists LAs in the early identification of concerns and enables school improvement staff to challenge school leaders, or offer additional help and support, before issues have the opportunity to escalate and the outcomes of learners are affected. In Sandwell we use the school’s most recent Ofsted grades to indicate a RAG rating for each school. Schools which were judged as good or better at their last inspection are rated as green, schools that were judged as requiring improvement are rated as amber and schools judged as inadequate are rated as red. The latest information on our school ratings are in the public domain and can be found on the Ofsted website. However, for ease of information we have included them in the response.

  • Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document
    Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document July 2016 Foreword The Council is committed to improving the Borough’s health and wellbeing. This commitment is reflected in Sandwell’s Scorecard, the Sandwell Joint Health and Wellbeing Strategy, and the Hot Food Takeaway Supplementary Planning Document. This document aims to reduce the trends towards increasing levels of obesity and poor diet by tackling issues of over-concentration of Hot Food Takeaways (HFTs) and the exposure of particularly vulnerable groups, such as schoolchildren, to HFTs. The explosive growth of the fast-food sector over recent decades has had a significant influence over how and where we purchase our food. It has affected not only our diet but also agricultural systems, the processing and packaging industry and the nature and appearance of our towns and cities. Fast food outlets / Hot Food Takeaways (‘A5’ as a Planning Use Class classification) are now a common feature of our High Streets and fulfil an increasing demand for instant food access and convenience. Fast food preparation and supply is an important element in the economy and in some urban areas makes up a significant proportion of the retail offer. Where balanced with other types of retail this provides a service to the public, jobs and rental income. Where Takeaways occupy a disproportionately high percentage of the retail offer, there can however be negative effects. In particular the vitality and viability of a town may be damaged and retailers and shoppers discouraged. There is a need to balance the protection of the retail function of our centres and encouraging diversification of uses to keep them vital and viable.

  • December Newsletter.Pdf
    Dear Parents and Carers, We have approached the end of a very busy and eventful term at Holly Lodge. Students have been preparing for and taking examinations during the penultimate week of term. Despite having to close school for three days due to the recent bad weather, we were able to conclude the examination schedule successfully. I would like to convey my thanks to all members of the school community, especially the staff, who have worked extremely hard to ensure that the education of the students remains a priority at Holly Lodge. We have also celebrated the success of last year’s Year 11 students with a fantastic presentation evening attended by Mr Amolak Dhariwal, a former Holly Lodge Student who is now named in the top 100 Ethnic Minority Business Leaders. This year we have one of the best value added of any school in the Local Authority and have had the best Post-16 results ever. In November I felt very proud of our students as we held a Remembrance Parade in the school quad involving the whole school. This was attended by Governors and also the local MP Rt.Hon John Spellar, all of whom commented on the exemplary behaviour of our students. As you are already aware, school will close at 12.00pm on Wednesday 20th December 2017 for the Christmas holidays. Students who are entitled to Free School Meals will be able to collect a packed lunch from the dining room at break time only. Please also note that the school re-opens on Thursday 4th January 2018 with a prompt start.
