  • 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.

The girls arrived at Bluecoat opti misti c and ready to take the win. With some excellent fi elding in the fi rst innings, we kept their scores low. Superb batti ng and tacti cal play saw us enter our 2nd batti ng innings with only 1 rounder needed to win the game. We did this easily on our 1st ball, with Emilie taking the win immediately. We stopped the game here at the request of the oppositi on and due to the heat, knowing our place in the fi nal was safe. A great performance by all and I look forward to the fi nal which will take place on Tuesday 10th July, 4pm at Oasis. POM: Emilie N.

  • 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.

  • Inspection of a Good School: the Oldham Academy North Broadway, Royton, Oldham, Greater Manchester OL2 5BF
    School report Inspection of a good school: The Oldham Academy North Broadway, Royton, Oldham, Greater Manchester OL2 5BF Inspection dates: 10–11 March 2020 Outcome The Oldham Academy North continues to be a good school. What is it like to attend this school? The Oldham Academy North is a school which lives and breathes cultural diversity and inclusivity. The pupils that we spoke with said that people of all backgrounds, faiths and differences come here. They get along well and are happy. Pupils say that there is very little bullying. Pupils can be themselves. Pupils with different lifestyles are not marginalised. Teachers are quick to spot and deal with any signs of bullying, before it gets out of hand. Pupils behave well and try hard in class. They listen to teachers and others, ask questions and contribute their own idea. Pupils say that there is low-level disruption only very occasionally. This is in those lessons when their usual class teachers are absent. Pupils conduct themselves well between lessons, and at break and lunchtimes. They are punctual to lessons. The school is a happy and lively place at lunchtime. Pupils enjoy one another’s company and smile a lot. They like to socialise, attend clubs or play games. Pupils benefit from the high expectations of the new headteacher, trust leaders and others. These leaders work with purpose and pace, to secure pupils’ bright futures. Pupils have no doubt that these adults want only the best for them. What does the school do well and what does it need to do better? Most pupils have achieved well in their GCSE examinations over recent years.

  • March Newsletter.Pub
    Newsletter March 2020 Reaching for the heights Key Change Students to get longer time with broader curriculum A three year Key Stage 3 will enable students to enjoy the breadth of subjects offered at school for an extra year, as changes are made in school this autumn. In recent months we have taken another look at how the school delivers the curriculum at The Radclyffe School. Students undertake a five year ’Learning Journey up to Year 11, and it is our priority to discover how we can best support them to achieve their full potential as they reach their examinations at the end of that time. Senior leaders, working with faculty and subject leaders and other staff have looked at national advice and guidance on best practice so we can provide the best education for your children. As a result, we have decided to extend the Key Stage 3 curriculum for an extra year, from two years to a three-year model. From September this year our students will follow the Key Stage 3 curriculum for Years 7 to 9. They will then follow Key Stage 4 (involving GCSE and other equivalent qualifications) through Year 10 and 11. The change will not affect current students in Key Stage 4. Our current Year 8 will gain an extra year in Key Stage 3, studying a broader range of subjects. All students study the three Core Subjects of English, Maths and Science throughout school. Nine ‘Foundation subjects make up the National Curriculum in Years 7 to 9; Art, Citizenship, Computing, Design & Technology, a foreign language, Geography, History, Music and PE.
