I was shocked but aggressive to a witness otherwise you will get elated that we had just won a place at the nationals since it was marked down. my first year ever being on the team. Our team is a mix of students that took part last year (7) and those that are new to the Furthermore, there are lots of formalities that the team (4) so there were some déjà vu moments for the whole team has to remember. For example you have experienced students and even a few emotional parents! One to refer to those playing the Magistrates as ‘your thing that had caught my eye, was the shield. Not just the shield worships’, the other lawyers as ‘my learned friend’ itself, but the names on the shield. When I was handed the shield and if you’re a Magistrate talking to a fellow to hold for our team photo, I saw that Springwood High School Magistrate, you’d say ‘my colleague’.

Being part of this team and taking on over in Birmingham the night before the final. We’ve also been these competitions has definitely taught me to be going through both legal crminal cases that we had to present in more time efficient. Rehearsals have taken place each round of the competition as for the final we have to present after school, lunchtimes and Sundays. This has them both! But not all of both of them, just one side of each meant many of us missing out on other clubs and (prosecution or defence) However we we won’t know the activities in order to prioritise this activiy becuase if selection until the day, so we have been revising everything! one person is missing, it can effect the people they directly work with.

They committed two years or more to complete this, while taking A-level exams. This is a fantastic achievement and their awards are well deserved. The five sections include volunteering, physical, skills and residential and a difficult expedition – in awful weather!!! So arriving at Buckingham Palace with their parents in glorious sunshine meant that the day was wonderful and a lovely change from the expedition phase. After spending time looking around the gardens and having many photographs taken it was time to get into groups for the presentations. Each group of 20-25 young award recipients then met the guest celebrity who presented the certificates. Our group was presented their awards by Alan Titchmarsh. After a photo shoot with him the Royals then arrived at the palace and walked through each group chatting to the award recipients and thanking the parents for their support. The Royals in attendance were The Earl and Countess of Wessex - Prince Edward and Sophie, and The Duke of York - Prince Andrew. The Springwood students receiving their certificates were Lucy Edwards, Alesha Jones and Jack Massingham. A great day to end a hard won award. RURAL CAREERS More than sixty Year 9/10 students from schools from across Norfolk spent the day on the 25,000 acre Holkham Estate to see what it is like to work on the land.

  • HAVE YOUR SAY: College Merger Plans – Views Invited Easton And
    MEDIA RELEASE Released under embargo 00.01 Friday 30th August, 2019 HAVE YOUR SAY: College Merger Plans – views invited Easton and Otley College today launches a public consultation, encouraging views from across the East Anglian community on its proposed merger with City College Norwich and Suffolk New College. The three institutions have been in talks to work together following a review led by Further Education Commissioner Richard Atkins, which has proposed the colleges complete a merger by the end of December 2019. Today sees the opening of the formal period of consultation, during which students, parents, staff, local employers and the wider community are invited and encouraged to share their thoughts on the plan. With a clear objective to provide a secure future for land-based learning in Norfolk and Suffolk, the proposal aims to result in two resilient and financially sustainable organisations, with widened educational offerings and strong industry partnerships. In recent weeks, the Easton and Otley leadership team has been overwhelmed by support in the face of its new chapter, with MPs, business leaders and sector specialists keen to see the region retain its strong reputation for food and agricultural linked education. The consultation period is set to run until Tuesday 1 October, after which all responses received will be considered carefully, before a final proposal is presented to the governing bodies of all three colleges and a final decision is reached. Meanwhile, detailed work continues on business planning and financial due diligence. Mark Pendlington, Chair of Easton and Otley College Corporation, said: “This consultation is an open invitation to all those in the region who wish to help secure a long-term future for the land based education in the East of England.
