  • The Blue Coat School Faith ~ Vision ~ Nurture
    The Blue Coat School Proud to be p ar t o f The Cr anmer E duca t ion Tr ust Spring Newsletter – March, 2016 Robotic’s Nationals – Design Award Winners Congratulations to our BlueBots! Faith ~ Vision ~ Nurture Dear Parents, Guardians and Carers, This has been a short and very busy term! It is the business term, when students and staff are all focused on the exams to come, and the work that has to be submitted, marked and sometimes improved. Fortunately we haven’t had to contend with much snow (Friday, 4th March presented a few challenges with transport, but the Snow Zone Policy worked well. Thank you for your support), and good progress has been made. The newsletter focuses, as always, on what students have been doing in different areas of the school, and it is staff who generally tell the story. But this year I have asked Rebecca Howarth from Year 7 to introduce the term’s news. As an introduction to Blue Coat, and to all those happy (but possibly slightly apprehensive) Year 6’ers who have just got their letter, it’s a gem! (See below, and thank you). A Term in the Life at Blue Coat - By Rebecca Howarth 7B “When I first came to Blue Coat it was quite a shock. My primary school, St Agnes C of E, was very small with 105 pupils altogether and 15 pupils in Year 6. So coming to Blue Coat, with 249 students just in my year felt scary at first. Still, I was excited too, and two of my friends from Primary, Zoe and Sadie, were in my Form.

  • Secondary School and Sixth Form Performance PDF
    Report to OVERVIEW AND SCRUTINY PERFORMANCE AND VALUE FOR MONEY SELECT COMMITTEE Secondary school and sixth form performance Portfolio Holder: Cllr Shaid Mushtaq, Cabinet Member for Education & Early Years Officer Contact: Richard Lynch, Director of Education, Skills & Early Years Report Author: Tony Shepherd, Head of Learning 12 March 2020 Purpose of the Report The purpose of this report is to provide Elected Members with a review of secondary school and sixth form performance. Executive Summary In 2020 the pandemic caused the closure of schools and cancellation of examinations. Students were awarded their centre assessment grade or calculated grade, whichever was higher. This increased grades and meant that results for 2020 could not be directly compared to other years. In addition, performance data is not available at the school level, making 2020 analysis very limited. This paper provides a performance overview by summarising 2020 published data and reflecting on trends in 2017-2019 published data. In 2020, GCSE and A’ level outcomes for Oldham pupils were below national averages and the gaps between Oldham and national averages were wider than previously. The trends from 2017 to 2019 show a widening gap between GCSE and A’ level outcomes in Oldham and those nationally. Recommendations To note the report and actions planned to address areas of under-performance. Overview and Scrutiny Board Tuesday, 2 March 2021 Secondary school and sixth form performance 1 Background 1.1 This paper provides an update to the Overview and Scrutiny Board on secondary school and sixth form performance in Oldham. 1.2 Performance of pupils in exams are generally norm-referenced, so a similar proportion of grades are awarded each year.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
