    School Direct Initial Teacher Training Programme 2019 - 20 Working in partnership with Working in partnership Welcome to the Kaizen Teaching School Alliance We would like to thank you for your interest in following a School Direct Initial Teacher Training programme in our Alliance. We firmly believe that the School Direct pathway into teaching has many advantages over the traditional initial teacher training routes, not least of which is the opportunity to experience school life at your preferred school right from the beginning of the academic year through to completion of your course and hopefully beyond. We have the experience and capacity to deliver outstanding teacher training for the next generation of teachers. As an Alliance, we are passionate about teaching and learning and we are also committed to providing exceptional world-class initial teacher training. We have a cultural mix of students who are keen to achieve. The Alliance has a number of schools OFSTED judged as OUTSTANDING. We are a forward-thinking ITT strand leadership team and our curriculum reflects the best possible way forward for all our students. Our aim is simple: We want to continue our tradition of raising standards through effective teaching and learning, whilst providing the highest level of quality for learning and teacher development. All schools in our Alliance work with our School Centred Initial Teacher Training (SCITT) provider, Kent and Medway Training (KMT). Last year, Kaizen had 19 trainees, all of whom successfully completed the course and majority of whom are employed in their first teaching post. You will spend the vast majority of your one-year full time training programme in the classroom, getting to heart of what outstanding teaching looks like.

  • Parent Booklet 2021 – 22
    PARENT BOOKLET 2021 – 22 1 The Malling School THE MALLING SCHOOL WAY We are very proud that our school is officially recognised as a ‘School of Character’ by the Association of Character Education. The development of our students’ character is central to everything we do at The Malling School and we continually strive to ensure our students follow what we refer to as ‘The Malling School Way’. ‘The Malling School Way’ is the foundation of our school and is something we are very proud of. We have identified three core character values that we feel perfectly summarise ‘The Malling School Way’. We encourage all our staff and students to strive to show these character traits. Our core character values are: “Caring, Determined and Reflective” Our first core value is being ‘caring’. We want our students to be caring and will continue to encourage them to look after others and provide for their needs. We stress the importance of putting others first and concerning themselves with how everyone is treated. We show that being caring means supporting those around you, however you can. Our second core value is being ‘determined’. We will continue to teach our students that being determined means you are willing to focus your efforts on challenging activities and keeping going especially when things are difficult. It means trying your best all the time, no matter what else is happening. Our last core value is being ‘reflective’. We will always teach our students that being reflective means you are able to consider possible alternatives. It means you can look back on what you and others have done and consider how to improve in the future.

    Local Authority Report To The Schools Adjudicator From Kent County Council 30 June 2018 Report Cleared by: Keith Abbott - Director of Education Planning and Access Date submitted: 28th June 2018 By : Scott Bagshaw – Head of Fair Access Contact email address: [email protected] Telephone number: 03000 415798 www.gov.uk/government/organisations/office-of-the-schools-adjudicator Please email your completed report to: [email protected] by 30 June 2018 and earlier if possible 1 Introduction Section 88P of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (the Act) requires every local authority to make an annual report to the adjudicator. The Chief Adjudicator then includes a summary of these reports in her annual report to the Secretary for State for Education. The School Admissions Code (the Code) sets out the requirements for reports by local authorities in paragraph 6. Paragraph 3.23 specifies what must be included as a minimum in the report to the adjudicator and makes provision for the local authority to include any other issues. The report must be returned to the Office of the Schools Adjudicator by 30 June 2018. The report to the Secretary of State for 2017 highlighted that at the normal points of admission the main admissions rounds for entry to schools work well. The Chief Adjudicator expressed less confidence that the needs of children who need a place outside the normal admissions rounds were so well met. In order to test this concern, local authorities are therefore asked to differentiate their answers in this year’s report between the main admissions round and in year admissions1.

  • Mascalls Academy Are Seeking Views on an Amendment to Its Admissions Policy for Students Applying to Enter Secondary Education in the Academic Year 2021-22
    Mascalls Academy are seeking views on an amendment to its Admissions Policy for students applying to enter secondary education in the academic year 2021-22. Leigh Academies Trust (LAT) is the Admissions Authority for Mascalls Academy and all academies within the Trust, and as such is responsible for the admissions arrangements for each. Summary of Proposals: LAT is proposing to add new criteria to the admission arrangements of Mascalls Academy. As Paddock Wood Primary Academy and Horsmonden Primary Academy have recently joined the Trust the academies would, in common with other Trust secondary academies, like to amend the admission arrangements for Mascalls Academy to offer some preferential access to pupils educated in Trust primary academies. A new criteria would be inserted into the Mascalls Academy arrangements which would offer this access to no more than 40 pupils or 17% of the cohort, the criteria states: • Trust primaries - 40 places will be available to children attending a Leigh Academies Trust primary academy. Applications will only be given priority in this category if the Leigh Academies Trust secondary academy to which they are applying is closest to their home. If oversubscribed in this category it will be the 40 closest to the Academy that will be admitted. In addition, Mascalls Academy would like to set a further criteria providing preferential access to staff members of the academy. This would assist the academy in the recruitment and retention of staff. The criteria states: • Child of a Staff Member- The son or daughter of a member of staff who has been recruited to fill a vacant post at the academy for which there is a demonstrable skill shortage.

  • Dear Parents/Carers and Students, I Hope You Are
    Mascalls Academy Leigh Academies Trust Maidstone Road Paddock Wood, Kent TN12 6LT t: 01892 835366 f: 01892 835648 e: [email protected] w: www.mascallsacademy.org.uk Principal: Will Monk, BSc (Hons) Dear parents/carers and students, I hope you are all well. Since the Secretary of State for Education announced that the 2020 exam series in England would be cancelled to help fight the spread of Coronavirus (COVID-19), we have been awaiting guidance from the Office for Qualifications and Examination Regulations (OfQual) as to how schools and academies nationally will determine examination grades. Along with this letter, please find a letter from OfQual that outlines how schools and academies will do this. Further guidance can be found here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file /877842/Summer_2020_grades_for_GCSE_AS_A_level_EPQ_AEA_in_maths_- _guidance_for_teachers_students_parents.pdf This has been a particularly challenging time for students, parents and carers leaving many anxious. We absolutely appreciate how difficult this has been for students, some disappointed and some relieved. Over the coming weeks staff will be working hard, following these guidelines, to arrive at appropriate grades that will reflect the hard work and effort students have been making, without disadvantaging any individuals. Please can I emphasise OfQual’s message that this is a confidential process, staff have been directed to not enter into any discussion about grades or process we are following. Please do not approach staff for this purpose. I would also like to add that whilst OfQual require no further evidence from schools, we will still be requiring students to complete tasks on Google Classroom, these will begin to focus on preparation for Post 16 study.
