    Geraldine Travers Report on Sabbatical 1 March to 24 May 2010 The purpose of my sabbatical was to look at examples of good practice in schools particularly focussing on leadership, literacy and raising achievement. Some of the nine schools I visited provided useful insights into all three foci whereas others were specific to one particular focus. Friday March 5, 2010 Keda Cowling and ‘Toe by Toe’ Baildon Yorkshire Toe by Toe is a programme designed by Keda Cowling to assist the dyslexic, as well as students who experience difficulties in learning to read for a variety of reasons. It has gained an international reputation and I was interested to find out about how it works and the philosophy behind it. Keda was born in 1926 and was a bright child at school however the prevailing economic circumstances of the time meant that she was unable to continue her secondary education and began working in a nearby textile mill. During the war she was put to work in a munitions factory. When the war ended opportunities opened up and Keda completed her education and enrolled in a teachers college. Her early life experiences gave her a great affinity for the underdog. Keda's husband built a house for the family in Baildon next door to school and as Keda was unable to drive it seemed to her to be a good idea to teach at the next-door school. The school had a vacancy for a teacher of second years, which Keda accepted although she had never taught this age group before.

The sample of schools represented a cross-section, including voluntary controlled schools, but did not include voluntary aided schools, for which there are separate inspection arrangements.

  • Review of Governance Interim Report – Lostock Hall Academy School, Lancashire
    Review of Governance Interim Report – Lostock Hall Academy School, Lancashire Reviewer name Karina Carter, National Leader of Governance School Name of contact Margaret Scrivens Role Chair of Governors Name of school Lostock Hall Academy Contact details Sharon Hurst, Clerk to the Governing Body, [email protected] 01772 646101 Main issues raised by Ofsted The issues highlighted refer to the Governance of the Academy. In addition to requesting a Review of Governance, with a specific focus on the use of pupil premium, the report also stated: School leaders and governors have been complacent and have let the decline in achievement go on for too long. Governors have been slow to tackle the underlying causes of poor performance, such as weak teaching. Until recently the school did not have a clear idea of just how poorly students were doing because systems to check on students’ progress were inadequate. Governors have not challenged the school quickly enough to remove the large gaps in achievement that exist across the school. The Governing Body has not acted sufficiently swiftly to make sure that the funds the school received were targeted at improving achievement for this group of students. Governors bring considerable expertise from the outside world, and show loyalty and commitment to the school. They have developed much more confidence in holding the school to account and have a good grasp of where the strengths and weaknesses are. The very recently reorganised senior leadership team has begun to tackle the barriers to success with urgency and vigour. This team…has a clear line of sight on what needs to be done to improve this school.
