SEMLEP Board 21St September 2016 Item 31.10E Paper Title Careers SEMLEP Board 21st September 2016 Item 31.10e Paper Title Careers and Enterprise Programme Purpose of Paper To update the Board regarding the Careers and Enterprise Programme Meeting Date 21st September 2016 Author Lindsay Hondebrink The Board is asked to: 1. Note progress in regard to implementation and initial plans for the integration of the SEMLEP and Northamptonshire Programmes. 1 SEMLEP Board: 21st September 2016 Summary 1.1 This paper provides a summary of progress in regard to implementation and initial plans for the integration of the SEMLEP and Northamptonshire Programmes. SEMLEP Careers and Enterprise Programme 2.1 The SEMLEP programme is currently focused only on the non-overlap LEP areas of Bedford Borough, Central Bedfordshire, Milton Keynes and Luton1. 2.2 Since the Programme launched in January 2016, 35 schools and colleges have confirmed engagement and signed a Memorandum of Understanding. This figure represents approximately 77% of secondary schools (45) and 50% of all schools and colleges (69)2. 2.3 To date, 20 Enterprise Advisers have confirmed their involvement and 16 have been trained and allocated to a school, drawing from a diverse range of businesses, including Ikea, Europa Components, Knorr-Bremse Rail Services and Lloyds Bank. There is an immediate need for at least 15 more Enterprise Advisers to support the schools and colleges that have signed up. 2.4 The opportunity has been presented to a number of business groups and networks, including the Showcase Sector Groups and Envoys. A promotional leaflet has been prepared and is attached to this report to support recruitment (Appendix 1). 2.5 Appendix 2 provides a listing of participating schools and Enterprise Advisers to date by local authority area. Northamptonshire Enterprise Adviser Network 3.1 Northamptonshire was one of the Careers and Enterprise Company Pilot Areas in 2014. The approach taken to supporting the increase of employment engagement in schools has been highly regarded nationally. 3.2 There is currently a network of 29 schools engaged on the programme and 25 have been carefully matched to an Enterprise Adviser. 29 schools represent approximately 83% of Northamptonshire secondary schools (35) and 51% of all Northamptonshire schools and colleges (56 in total). 3.3 Schools have been supported by their individual Enterprise Advisers to each develop a work related strategy and demand for employer engagement activity on the ground has increased as a result. 3.4 In addition to the strategic role of the Enterprise Advisers, NEP have also created a database of employer volunteers, who are ‘Inspirers’ and able to deliver talks and other inspirational activities in schools. 3.5 Other key success factors include the ‘Love Bright Futures’ campaign and Pop Up Job Shop initiative, Apprenticeship Ambassadors and close alignment with the National Careers Service for young people ‘Careers Inspiration’. 1 To avoid any duplication, the area of Northamptonshire has been managed by NEP, Cherwell by Oxfordshire LEP and Aylesbury by Bucks Thames Valley LEP. 2 The total number of schools and colleges includes FE colleges but excludes primary, middle, independent and higher education providers. 2 3.6 Appendix 3 provides a listing of participating schools and Enterprise Advisers to date in the Northamptonshire area by local authority. Integration of SEMLEP and NEP Programmes 4.1 It is recognised that the SEMLEP and NEP Networks are at very different stages. The SEMLEP Programme, launched in January 2016, is still in a development phase. The NEP Programme is well established, having launched in 2014, although there is still a growth opportunity. 4.2 To minimise disruption where possible, it is recommended that both Networks for schools and Enterprise Advisers remain separate for the time being. However, there is clearly an opportunity for synergy and learning through the integration of both Project Board/Steering Groups. This option will be presented to each respective group at their next meeting during the Autumn. 4.3 SEMLEP remains firmly committed to maintaining support across both Networks and achieving growth during 2016/17 where possible. However, it is recognised that during the integration period and while we are recruiting for new staff, we will face a considerable challenge in the short run. 4.4 We are currently advertising for Enterprise Coordinators with a closing date of 30th September. During the recruitment period, the national Careers and Enterprise Company have offered to give ‘light touch’ support through their Regional Leads and the existing SEMLEP team will aim to maintain communication and support with the various groups and individuals where possible. 4.5 The number of appointments is yet to be confirmed as it is subject to receiving a final combined LEP Funding Offer for the academic year 2016/17 from the Careers and Enterprise Company and approval of LEP match funding from the Finance and Remuneration Committee. If resources permit, our aim will be to have up to 4 Enterprise Coordinators to support both networks. The Board is asked to: 1. Note progress in regard to implementation and initial plans for the integration of the SEMLEP and Northamptonshire Programmes. 3 Appendix 2: SEMLEP Careers & Enterprise Programme – Status Update as at 26/08/2016 Bedford Borough Schools Signed Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Mark Rutherford School Bedford St Thomas More Catholic School Bedford Greys Education Centre Bedford Bedford Academy Bedford Paul Shadbolt Lloyds Bank Stevenage Bedford Free School Bedford Castle Newnham School Bedford Biddenham Upper School Bedford Paula Grayson Bell Consultancy Turvey The Careers & Wootton Upper School Bedford Paul Thompson Enterprise Company Wootton The Careers & Kimberley 16 - 19 Stem College Bedford Paul Thompson Enterprise Company Wootton Bedford Borough Schools Unsigned Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Bedford College Bedford Grange Academy Bedford St John's School Bedford Ridgeway School Bedford Sharnbrook Upper School Bedford Hastingsbury Business & Enterprise College Bedford Total Signed 9 (60%) Total Unsigned 6 (40%) Central Beds Schools Signed Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Stratton Upper School Biggleswade Manshead School Caddington Central Bedfordshire College Dunstable All Saints Academy Dunstable Mark Collier ReMarkIt Houghton Regis Queensbury Academy Dunstable Priory Academy Dunstable Federation of Small Harlington Upper School Harlington Caron Kendall Business Toddington Central Bedfordshire UTC Houghton Regis The Academy of Central Houghton Regis/ Bedfordshire Stotfold Vandyke Upper School & Community College Leighton Buzzard Charlie Browne Ikea Wisbech Cedars Upper School Leighton Buzzard Marie Jones Parker Hannifin Leighton Buzzard Sandy Upper School Sandy Samuel Whitbread Academy Shefford Julian Higgs Capgemini Bedford University of Unmatched EA Cathy Hyde Bedfordshire Stotfold Central Beds Schools Unsigned Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Weatherfield Academy Dunstable Oak Bank School Leighton Buzzard Ivel Valley School Biggleswade The Chiltern School Dunstable Houghton Regis Academy Dunstable Redborne Upper School and Community College Ampthill Total Signed 13 (68%) Total Unsigned 6 (32%) 4 Luton Schools Signed Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Lea Manor School Luton Denbigh High School Luton David Sheridan Europa Components Luton Challney High School for Girls Luton Peter Jenkin Partners in Export Luton Barnfield College Luton Paul Shadbolt's Putteridge High School Luton Team Lloyds Bank Stevenage Stockwood Academy Luton Icknield High School Luton Mohammed Islam Training 4 U Services Luton Rupee Dhoot/ Stopsley High School Stopsley Jyoti Manani Plowman Craven Harpenden Unmatched EA Tas Bushra-Jalil Realise Futures Luton Luton Schools Unsigned Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Luton Sixth Form College Luton Avenue Centre for Education Luton Woodlands Secondary School Luton Challney High School for Boys Luton Lealands High School Luton Ashcroft High School Luton Cardinal Newman Catholic School Luton The Chalk Hills Academy Luton The Studio School Luton Luton Total Signed 8 (47%) Total Unsigned 9 (53%) Milton Keynes Schools Signed Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Knorr-Bremse Rail Shenley Brook End School Milton Keynes Harjeet Moore Services Milton Keynes Lord Grey School Milton Keynes Stantonbury Campus Milton Keynes Paul Scofield Aspect Milton Keynes Parker Fluidic The Hazeley Academy Milton Keynes Jurate Paltanaviciute Solutions Milton Keynes Oakhill Secure Training Centre Milton Keynes Unmatched EA Cheryl Wood Pearson Milton Keynes Specialist Project Unmatched EA Simon Wray Integration Milton Keynes Milton Keynes Schools Unsigned Location Enterprise Adviser Company Location Milton Keynes College Milton Keynes Bridge Academy Milton Keynes Stephenson Academy Milton Keynes White Spire School Milton Keynes The Walnuts School Milton Keynes Slated Row School Milton Keynes The Redway School Milton Keynes The Milton Keynes Academy Milton Keynes Oakgrove School Milton Keynes Denbigh School Milton Keynes Walton High Milton Keynes Ousedale School Newport Pagnell Sir Herbert Leon Academy Milton Keynes The Radcliffe School Milton Keynes St Paul's Catholic School Milton Keynes Total Signed 5 (25%) Total Unsigned 15 (75%) 5 Appendix 3: Northamptonshire Enterprise Adviser Network School School Type School Specialism LA Area Enterprise Adviser Employer Brooke Weston Academy Academy None Corby Anthony Green Mahle Powertrain

  • Attendance Leave of Absence
    Website: www.HAST-Education.co.uk September 2014 Dear Parents/Carers Attendance: Leave of Absence We are writing to outline the new guidance from Central Bedfordshire Council (CBC) regarding leave of absence for the purpose of family holidays during school term-time (August 2013) and the implementation of Fixed Penalty Notices (September 2014). Good attendance at school encourages good progress. Evidence shows that children with attendance below 90% made on average less than two-thirds of the annual progress made by pupils with attendance above 90%. Please be aware that there is no right or entitlement to term-time leave and any requests for such leave will not, as a rule, be granted. Any decision as to what constitutes ‘exceptional circumstances’ is at the discretion of the Headteacher. The following instances are offered as examples of what might reasonably be seen to constitute ‘exceptional circumstances’: A parent or other close relative of the child has a serious, life-threatening or terminal medical condition and it is believed that the holiday requested may be the last opportunity for the family to experience such an event; A parent is in the armed forces and is shortly due to be posted overseas to a known danger-spot, such as Afghanistan; The family is in an extreme state of crisis and it is considered that the holiday in question may help the family to avert or better deal with this crisis; Fixed Penalty Notices A Fixed Penalty Notice (£60 per parent/carer per child) may be issued when: A pupil is taken out of school during term-time for a holiday which has not been authorised by the school; A truancy patrol carried out by a School Attendance Officer has found a pupil absent from school and the absence has not been authorised by the school; Working with Central Bedfordshire Council Registered Office: c/o Harlington Upper School, Goswell End Road, Harlington, Dunstable, Bedfordshire.
