    Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea School Organisation and Investment Strategy 2016 Introduction The number of pupils on roll in state-funded schools in Kensington & Chelsea at the start of the 2015/16 academic year (both resident and non-resident) is as follows: 1 193 at 4 Nursery schools 7,282 at 26 Primary schools (6,800 plus 482 nursery) 4,822 at 6 Secondary schools (4,090 plus 732 in 6th forms) In addition: 50 at Latimer Alternative Provision Academy 96 at Chelsea Community Hospital School The population of the Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea dropped from 169,494 to 155,594 in 2013 but has now risen to 158,741 in 2015. Nevertheless it is one of the most densely populated areas in Europe. The population turnover is estimated at 20% per year. Two wards are among the 10% most deprived in England and our schools have more than twice the national rate of pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds. The school population includes a rich diversity of cultures. Many new pupils are likely to be refugees, asylum seekers or from a transient population. Over 50% of the Borough’s school-aged population is of ethnic origin and nearly half identify English as a second language. According to the latest GLA projections the primary school population is expected to be significantly lower than was forecast in 2015 and by 2026 it will be nearly 1,000 lower. By contrast the projected number at secondary level is higher. By 2021 that number will be nearly 500 higher before leveling off by 2026.

    Removing barriers to literacy The aim of this survey was to illustrate effective approaches that might help others to improve their practice in literacy. Inspectors visited providers of childcare, education and post-16 learning. The providers were selected because previous inspection evidence and data on achievement and attainment showed that they were particularly successful in enabling children and learners from disadvantaged backgrounds to make better than average progress and to achieve good standards of literacy. Age group: All Published: January 2011 Reference no: 090237 The Office for Standards in Education, Children's Services and Skills (Ofsted) regulates and inspects to achieve excellence in the care of children and young people, and in education and skills for learners of all ages. It regulates and inspects childcare and children's social care, and inspects the Children and Family Court Advisory Support Service (Cafcass), schools, colleges, initial teacher training, work-based learning and skills training, adult and community learning, and education and training in prisons and other secure establishments. It assesses council children’s services, and inspects services for looked after children, safeguarding and child protection.

  • UWGC-Chief-Executive-And-Clerk-Candidate-Brief
    A Message from the Chairman Thank you very much for your interest in the role of Chief Executive and Clerk of the United Westminster and Grey Coat Foundation (UWGCF) in succession to the current Clerk who will retire at the end of this year. Until very recently the United Westminster Schools Foundation (UWS) and the Grey Coat Hospital Foundation (GCHF) were separate charities, with separate boards of trustees, which were administered by the same Foundation Office. On 31 March 2019 UWS and GCHF formally merged to become UWGCF with a single board of trustees. This creates an education charity of significant size and presents an extremely exciting opportunity for the Foundation in the years to come. We are looking for someone who is not only able to put forward strategies for Trustees to consider, but also to ensure that the current five schools are supported to help them continue to achieve excellence. These changes do not presage a change in the relationship with the Foundation’s schools; each school will retain its existing autonomy under the leadership of its respective Governing Body. The merger does, however, present opportunities to manage its endowments more effectively and to consider ways in which it can promote public benefit in a more focused and co-ordinated way than was possible before. The responsibilities of the Chief Executive and Clerk and the ideal candidate are described in this pack. You will note that the title of the post has been changed to reflect not only the traditional understanding of the term ‘Clerk’ in the field of education and other charitable organisations, but also to encompass the wide responsibility for all the executive functions of the office.
