Newsflash 10 Friday 15Th November 2019 Mossley Hollins High School Newsflash 10 th Friday 15 November 2019 Headteacher’s Message As a school, we focus on academic success and strive to help students to reach their potential, but we never forget that the development of character and the building of culture are equally important. This week I have been reminded once again of the opportunities outside the classroom that our pupils take part in throughout the school week. On Monday, 11th November, I was humbled by the incredible respect that every student showed in memory of members of our armed services who have laid down their lives to safeguard our futures. As a school, we paid homage to the victims of war, especially our own former pupil Corporal Joey Etchells who died whilst serving with the Lancashire Fusiliers in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in 2009. As usual, we were joined by our colleagues from the Mossley and Carrbrook Partnership schools as well as guests from Greater Manchester Police and from the Police and Army Cadet Training team. We were also delighted to welcome Tracey Akukwe and Vandis Nwanze, Head Girl and Boy from our partner school, Droylesden Academy. Thank you once again to Reverend David Warner for his involvement and prayers. During the service, students representing Army, Sea and Air Cadets, as well as Police and St John’s Ambulance cadets, were joined by members of the scouts and guides to parade to Joey’s memorial tree where they placed their poppy wreath alongside the tributes of each year group and those of our guests. Mr Beardmore spoke eloquently about Joey before leading the musicians in a flawless rendition of the Last Post, our signal to observe, together, the two minutes silence. Not a sound could be heard from everyone assembled as they paid their own silent tribute. There is no occasion when, as a Headteacher, I have felt so proud of our incredible young people. Later in the week, on Wednesday, members of Year 10 excelled when they attended the Clarendon College High Schools challenge, coming away with First and Second prize for the first time ever, and on Thursday I was privileged to see Year 7 bakers as they slaved away making memorial buns for their very own bake off competition. For the results please read the article later in this edition. Finally, on Thursday evening, we welcomed back our former year 11 students, the Class of 2019, to the Learning Awards evening. Accompanied by our wonderful school band and a moving solo from Tilly McGlashan Year 9, the former pupils received their certificates and special awards presented by Richard Lee, Associate Principal at Oldham Sixth Form College and Anton McGrath, Principal at Ashton Sixth Form College. Thank you to our guests for sharing our special evening with us. Mr Marshall School Band Remembrance Sunday, Hollingworth On Sunday, 10th November our band were privileged to take part in two local remembrance services. Each year Mossley Hollins band are asked to lead two churches: Hollingworth Methodists and Hollingworth St. Mary’s, from the churches onto the war memorial. Many players in the band had never marched before and so this was a new experience for them. Having marched to the war memorial the band provided the music for the hymns and the National Anthem. The band also had three cornet players performing The Last Post and then after the two minutes silence The Reveille. The band then marched back along the same route. Our students represented the school with exactly the right attitude for such an occasion. Faraday College (Year 9): Remembrance Work Year 9 have been studying the First World War in history lessons, and completed their studies with a reflection on why we remember. As part of this they considered the role of the many different people who helped Britain and the Allies win the First World War one hundred years ago including the soldiers and sailors who sacrificed so much, the women who made munitions in unpleasant and dangerous factories and the troops from the British Empire who volunteered to fight alongside the British. Students also learned about the terrible conditions facing soldiers in this industrialised war and the ways that they were affected by this. They have also been learning about the Battle of the Somme, which was fought from July until November 1916. The first day of fighting, 1st July 1916, is significant for the losses on both sides, in particular the 60,000 British casualties including over 19,000 deaths on just one day (soldiers were being shot at the rate of eight every second). Sadly, the First World War was not ‘the war to end all wars’ and students’ work also recognised those who made sacrifices in subsequent wars and those in the military today. Nightingale College (Year 11): Impressive Behaviour This week, Mr Marshall was delighted to receive a message from one of our colleagues at Tameside College who came to speak to Year 11 recently. The message commented on how impressive the behaviour and conduct of the students was; ‘impeccably behaved throughout the session, engaged and very respectful. The whole year group was a credit to the school and the college would wholeheartedly welcome any of your learners in joining us on A Level or vocational courses next academic year. It is evident the expectations and values of the school have been clearly communicated to the learners and they have engaged 100% in demonstrating them in their behaviours and attitudes. I look forward to returning to the school in the near future and welcome any application for our courses.’ Nightingale College (Year 11) – Pre-Public Examinations Timetable Year 11, there are only 20 school weeks left, just 100 days in school, until your first GCSE.

Students were guided by English teachers - who are also GCSE examiners - through a minute by minute run through of their exam papers. Teachers modelled how successful answers are structured and demonstrated how to manage timings. Students engaged effectively with this opportunity and, afterwards, many students remarked how helpful the experience was and how much value it has added to their knowledge, understanding and skills. Students should now take this opportunity to reflect on their performance during this process and revise areas for development in order to ensure their success when they sit the papers independently. Nightingale College (Year 11) - Inspire St John’s College, Oxford is excited to announce the Year 11 Inspire Programme for 2019-20! Year 11 pupils are invited to enrol in this online programme. A series of newsletters are to be released in spring, which will be full of articles from the perspectives of various academic subjects offering competitions with prizes and GCSE studying tips.

  • Our Multi-Academy Trust Planning and Consultation Tame River Educational Trust
    17th January 2020 Dear Parents/Carers, The start of a new year offers an appropriate opportunity to look ahead and to let you know about some of our plans for the future. Firstly, our Ofsted report in November highlighted just two areas for improvement – one relating to resources in English and one to the Languages curriculum. The English department have already reviewed all texts and schemes of work to ensure that all pupils continue to be pushed to achieve their best and it was heartening to hear Ofsted report that teaching in English is very strong. In Languages, Ofsted felt that giving pupils the opportunity to try French, German and Spanish in Year 7 and then to select their preference was detrimental to progress (despite the fact that GCSE results in Languages were strong last year). Pupils and parents, however, have been very positive about the carousel of languages and so we will take that into account as we now plan next year’s timetable in the best interests of our pupils. It was pleasing to see that Ofsted acknowledged how much the school has improved and that it continues to do so. With a view to continuing our journey of improvement, we have been exploring the exciting idea of working with three other successful Tameside schools – Alder Community High School, Mossley Hollins High School and Droylsden Academy - to create an aspirational and ambitious Multi-Academy Trust which would enrich and strengthen the educational offer for all our learners. The information below is being sent out to parents and carers at all four schools today and is simply to make everyone aware that we have formally registered our intention to move forward with developing this idea.

  • Background and Vision
    Droylsden Academy – Background and Vision Background In September 2009 Droylsden Academy replaced Droylsden School, Mathematics and Computing College for Girls and Littlemoss High School for Boys with a new co-educational Academy on the Droylsden School site. In January 2012 the Academy moved into the new state of the art building which has places for 1,200 students plus post-16 provision for 200 students. The Academy has great potential but, currently, faces many challenges: achievement, the quality of teaching, behaviour and attitudes and learning are simply not yet good enough. The school is in Serious Weaknesses and must and will improve quickly and satisfactorily. Sponsorship Tameside College is the sponsor and works in partnership to raise levels of attainment and aspirations of all students. As sponsor, Tameside College is very well placed to create a unique institution characterised by high achievement and success. The College has a national reputation for excellence and has a solid track record of partnership working with employers, universities and local schools. The benefits that Tameside College brings are immense, adding their expertise and ideas as well as opening up life-enhancing opportunities to all in Droylsden. Executive Headship The Headteacher from Mossley Hollins High School (rated ‘Outstanding’ twice by Ofsted, most recently in 2014 – 15) has been working with the Academy in a supportive capacity (one day per week) since January 2015. In March 2015 he has been promoted to Executive Principal across his current school and Droylsden Academy. He spends around 50% of his time in each building. At Mossley Hollins High School he works with the new Headteacher, Mr Stuart Marshall, to ensure that the school runs extremely well day-to-day and continues to perform highly effectively.

  • Great Schools in Which to Learn, Teach and Belong Consultation 22Nd
    Great schools in which to learn, teach and belong Consultation 22nd February 2021 to the 2nd April 2021 This consultation briefing describes the overall aims, ambitions and plans for the establishment of the Tame River Educational Trust from the 1st September 2021, subject to statutory consultation, of which this is a part. Who are the founding schools and sponsor? In alphabetical order, the schools which have been working together for nearly two years to establish the new Trust are: • Alder Community High School • Droylsden Academy • Hyde High School • Mossley Hollins High School Background information about the planning we have been doing has been shared previously with parents and carers in each school and has been made public on our websites for some time. Three of the schools are consulting on their plans to convert to an academy as a necessary first legal step in forming our Tame River Educational Trust with each other and with Droylsden Academy, which is consulting on transferring from a sponsored single-academy trust to a sponsored multi-academy trust with the other three schools. As you know Mossley Hollins High School has already been in a Soft Federation partnership with Droylsden Academy for nearly 6 years now under the executive leadership of Mr Drew Duncan (who was previously the headteacher at Mossley Hollins, between 2002 and 2015), working in partnership with the headteachers and teams across both schools for their mutual benefit. Who will be our sponsor and who supports this change in designation? The proposal to form our sponsored Educational Trust has received the formal approval of Tameside Local Authority, the four school Governing Bodies, the Lancashire and West Yorkshire Regional Schools’ Commission and the Department for Education.
