Glenmoor and Winton Come out on Top As Progress Glenmoor and Winton Come Out on Top as Progress 8 results for all mainstream schools in England are published Glenmoor and Winton Academies are celebrating the latest set of government figures released which are used to measure school performance. The Progress 8 measure shows how well pupils at schools have progressed between the end of primary school (key stage 2) and the end of secondary school (key stage 4), compared to pupils in other schools who got similar results at the end of primary school. This is based on results in up to 8 GCSE qualifications which include English, maths, humanities, sciences, languages and the arts. 2016 is the first year that all schools have had their progress 8 score published. It is the new accountability measure designed by the department for education to allow parents to judge a schools effectiveness. The average progress 8 score across all mainstream schools in England is 0. The higher the score the more progress children at that school make compared to those of similar ability. Glenmoor Academy achieved the highest Progress 8 score of all Bournemouth schools, just pipping Winton Academy which is in second place. When looking at the wider local area and including Christchurch and Poole schools, Glenmoor and Winton sit at joint second and third place respectively. Glenmoor and Winton are two separate Academies – one for girls and one for boys – which enjoy the benefits of co-location. Students share resources, staff, extra-curricular provision and social time whilst being taught in single-sex groups. Both Academies were over-subscribed last year and expect to be this year, as their reputation for academic excellence and pastoral care grows in the community. Listed below is the performance of all secondary schools in Bournemouth based on the recently published progress 8 scores for GCSE results achieved in the summer of 2016. Rank School Name Progress 8 Score 1 Glenmoor Academy +0.48 2 Winton Academy +0.36 3 Bournemouth School for Girls +0.29 4 St Peters Catholic School +0.25 5 Bournemouth School +0.23 6 The Leaf Studio +0.20 7 Avonbourne Academy +0.14 8 The Bishop of Winchester Academy +0.09 9 The Bourne Academy -0.01 10 Harewood College -0.42 11 Oak Academy -0.45 12 Parkfield School -0.51 Commenting on their respective very positive Progress 8 scores of +0.48 and +0.36, Ben Antell, Headteacher of Glenmoor and Winton Academies said: “We are very pleased that Glenmoor and Winton Academies are the top performing schools in Bournemouth for Progress 8. These figures demonstrate the significant progress that our students made since coming here in Year 7 and which were translated into excellent results this summer. These figures are a new national benchmark that reflect the difference that attending a certain school makes to the qualifications children leave with, so it is highly encouraging for us that we have done so very well. Students and staff here work hard in every year group and it is excellent to see how well we have performed not just locally but in comparison with every other school in the country.” .

    The Alcohol Education Trust Progress on Strategic Goals and Impact Report 2020 Alcohol Education Trust Progress on strategic goals and impact report 2020 - page 1 Alcohol Education Trust Progress on strategic goals and impact report 2020 - page 2 Introduction from Vicky McDonaugh, Chair of Trustees We are looking forward to 2021 for two good reasons. The first being the completion of our office and cafe in Dorchester to be known as PIPS. The second, the expansion of our work to include 18-25 year olds. Reading this report, I am struck by just how much our staff have managed to achieve. I want to take this opportunity to thank them and our CEO, for their tireless efforts in difficult circumstances. Successive lockdowns have made the work of the AET even more important this year as evidence emerges showing increased consumption of alcohol by some at home plus the perils of excess parental drinking for children. The statistics showing an increase in domestic abuse during lockdown are deeply worrying, a significant proportion will have been fuelled by alcohol. This year has tested the resilience and adaptability of organisations across the world. The AET is no exception and we have continued to support schools and settings that remained open looking after the children of key workers and the most vulnerable throughout successive lockdown. As a result, we have increased the number of vulnerable young people we have helped to make wise life choices this year, in more settings than ever. We have also, of course, all increased our digital and on line presenting and training skills – which puts us in good stead moving forward, but we cannot wait to return to face to face work with professionals and young people alike, empowering and inspiring people through interaction and developing life skills across England and Scotland.

  • Admission to Year 7 Or Year 9 2021 a Guide for Parents and Carers
    Admission to Year 7 or Year 9 2021 A Guide for Parents and Carers This guide contains information to help you apply for a school place in Year 7 or Year 9 (secondary schools, studio schools and schools with an additional point of entry at Year 7 or Year 9) You can also visit our website: bcpcouncil.gov.uk/schooladmissions Introduction Introduction Welcome to our guidebook for parents and carers which has been designed to help you find the right school for your child whether your child is starting at a Secondary or Studio school, or moving school during the 2021-22 school year. It outlines what information we need from you, and what you can expect in return from us. Across Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole we have 96 schools. The Council works in close partnership with them. The aspirations for our area are ambitious and include investing in our children and young people and enabling access to high quality education. We understand that moving up to Secondary or Studio school is an exciting experience for both children and parents. However, this transition can also be a challenging time for all as decisions are made about which schools to apply for - with this process then followed by the inevitable and anxious wait to see if the application has been successful. Similar to other areas, Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council has experienced increased demand for school places due to rising birth rates and movement of families. We have adopted an overall strategy for the provision of school places which includes looking at options for additional capacity at existing schools and new school provision.
