Client Information Education in Jersey Client Information Education in Jersey Education Education provision in Jersey is excellent, ranging from nursery and pre-school classes through to the age of 18. Nursery education has to be funded privately but a selection of nurseries and pre-schools offer excellent provision to pre-school children. Most of the States Primary Schools have a pre-school attached. Children are eligible to start pre-school if they are 3 years old on 1 September. Forms can be obtained from your local school. All pre-school children are allowed 20 hours per week for free at an approved nursery (this can be attached to the school or a private establishment). Primary Education Each parish on the island has at least one local States primary school, with the exception of St Helier, which has six. The choice of school depends on your catchment area and how big the school is – some primary schools have one class per year and some have two classes per year. There is only one intake per year at the start of September and any child who is 4 years old on the 1 September will be eligible to join Reception. The parish primary schools are listed below: East of Island Grouville School 49.185967,-2.041504 Plat Douet School 49.17913,-2.08715 Samares School 49.170509,-2.083502 St Clement’s School 49.170655,-2.068943 St Martin’s School 49.219727,-2.054577 St Saviour School 49.194045,-2.084071 St Helier Springfield School 49.190578,-2.098356 D’Auvergne School 49.194553,-2.104359 Grand Vaux School 49.203274,-2.090819 Janvrin School 49.198122,-2.107873 Rouge Bouillon School 49.192586,-2.107884 St Luke’s School 49.178958,-2.095363 Centre of Island Bel Royal School 49.200512,-2.148594 First Tower School 49.194192,-2.126155 St Lawrence School 49.215165,-2.141433 St John’s School 49.244949,-2.138633 St Mary’s School 49.237461,-2.166876 Trinity School 49.229078,-2.093330 West of Island Page 1 © Quintessential Relocation Consultants Ltd 2014 tel. +44 (0) 1481 257200 email.

In addition to States primary schools, you have the option of a few fee-paying schools: Helvetia House School is a small independent girls school, teaching students from ages 4 – 11. It is a non- selective school but class sizes are small (approx. 12), therefore, spaces don’t become available very often.

Transfer into either school at age 7 or 11 is assessment based and students will need to meet strict criteria to receive a place. For students wishing to attend Jersey College for Girls Preparatory School from age 7, an entrance test/assessment is held. http://www.jcgprep.sch.je Victoria College Preparatory School is a selective boys school catering for students aged 7 – 11 years.

Any of the pupils from the above 4 schools can elect to transfer to Hautlieu at aged 14 to study for GCSE’s or at age 16 to study for A Levels.

Hautlieu is also associated with the International Baccalaureate World School and some students opt to study for the International Baccalaureate Diploma rather than A Levels.

Strong progress has continued on our journey of continuous improvement with the implementation of the Strategic Plan and it has again been a highly successful year for both schools. Victoria College achieved its best ever overall results at GCSE. Whilst A level results remained strong, they dropped to levels that existed before the recent high years and support arrangements have been put in place in some departments. Encouragingly, Victoria College was scored in the top 10% of some 3,000 UK schools, reflecting outstanding progress students made in achieving results better than their predictions.

  • The Best Start for Children in Jersey
    The Best Start for Children in Jersey By getting it right from the start, Jersey will become an island that works for all children and makes a sound investment in the island’s future. 1 About the Partnership Achieving better outcomes for children and families means working across traditional boundaries between government departments and partner agencies in both the public, private, voluntary and community sectors with parents and their children. The Best Start Partnership1 offers a new ‘whole system’ approach by bringing together a wide range of stakeholders in a single body. It has and will continue to draw on the voices of children and families with local representatives from the public, private, community and voluntary sectors to provide unique insights representing the interests of children in the development, implementation and evaluation of government strategy and policy. The purpose of the Partnership is to: • represent the interests of children in the development, implementation and evaluation of government strategy and policy • ensure that early years and childhood policy is co-ordinated, resource allocation is effectively prioritised and high quality practice is embedded across services and organisations • support and help implement, integrate and monitor delivery plans for relevant outcomes • support the delivery of the children’s plan • monitor and review the impact of policies and services for children and families Why the Early Years are crucial What happens in pregnancy and early childhood has the greatest impact on children’s futures as it impacts on physical and mental health throughout adulthood. “The period from conception to the start of school opens a critical and singular window of opportunity to shape the development of a child’s brain.

    ADMINISTRATIVE DECISIONS (REVIEW) (JERSEY) LAW 1982, AS AMENDED: REPORT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE APPEALS PANEL REGARDING COMPLAINTS RECEIVED BETWEEN 1ST JANUARY AND 31ST DECEMBER 1999 _______________ Presented to the States on 8th February 2000 by the Special Committee to consider the relationship between Committees and the States ______________________________ STATES OF JERSEY STATES GREFFE 150 2000 R.C.5 Price code: C ADMINISTRATIVE DECISIONS (REVIEW) (JERSEY) LAW 1982, AS AMENDED: REPORT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE APPEALS PANEL REGARDING COMPLAINTS RECEIVED BETWEEN 1st JANUARY AND 31st DECEMBER 1999 Foreword by Chairman of the Appeals Panel Dear Mr. President, I am pleased to send herewith a copy of the Report of the Panels convened under the Law relating to Administrative Appeals. You will see from the Report that nine complaints were received by the Greffier of the States. Of that number two went to a full Hearing, whilst three Appeal Boards have been deferred until 2000 (including one complaint carried forward from the end of 1998). Of the two Hearings, the appropriate Board upheld the Committee’s decision on one occasion and requested a reconsideration of the other. From time to time there are those who say that Administrative Appeal Boards, or an equivalent ombudsman, should be given more teeth. I have to record that in the United Kingdom a recommendation is generally found acceptable as the appropriate authority almost always accepts the ruling of the ombudsman. Unfortunately such is not always the case in Jersey. I would point to the matter referred to under (b) below where the Planning and Environment Committee agrees with the recommendation and accepts the justice of the Board’s findings; but over a year has passed since the Board gave its decision and nothing has happened.
