Wisconsin Standards for English Language Arts ii Foreword On May 27, 2020, I formally adopted the Wisconsin Standards for English Language Arts. This revised set of academic standards provides a foundational framework identifying what knowledge and skills Wisconsin students in English language arts should learn at different grade levels or bands of grades. The adoption of this revised set of standards was part of a concerted effort led by Wisconsin educators and stakeholders who shared their expertise in English language arts and teaching from kindergarten through higher education. Feedback was provided by the public and the Wisconsin State Legislature for the writing committee to consider as part of Wisconsin’s Academic Standards review and revision process. English language arts is an essential part of a comprehensive PK-12 education for all students. Through English language arts, Wisconsin students learn to use literacy to understand and improve themselves and their worlds.

  • National Qualifications: a Short History
    National Qualifications: a short history This report was produced by James McVittie in October 2008. During the preparations for a recent consultation on qualification design at SCQF levels 4–5, many of the issues that came up had been considered, discussed, and even consulted on in the past. Given the changes that are afoot, and developments that are being discussed, now seems to be the right moment to document this history. This brief paper summarises the reviews over the last 30 years of the national school qualifications in Scotland, and identifies issues that have been raised in successive reforms and the extent to which they have been resolved. 1 1 Reports and development programmes 1.1 Munn and Dunning (1977) The Munn and Dunning reports were commissioned to address weaknesses in the provision of courses and qualifications to meet the needs of the full ability range, and to ensure appropriate progression to Higher Grade. Concerns included the fact that a substantial minority of school leavers held no nationally-recognised certificate recording their achievements in school, and that the Ordinary Grade examination was insufficiently challenging for the most able students. Moreover, these students were then expected to complete the much more demanding Higher course in only two terms ― the notorious ‘two-term dash’. Both reports were published in 1977. The Munn Committee reported on the curriculum and recommended: ♦ a restructuring of the curriculum in S3 and S4 to meet the needs of students of all abilities ♦ the introduction of approaches

  • Education in Scotland
    EDUCATION IN SCOTLAND Education in Scotland is markedly different from that in the rest of the United Kingdom - with a different curriculum, school boards to oversee school management and a General Teaching Council which has been in existence since 1965. Whilst there are many examples of successful and innovative practice in Scotland, the system is quite often not recognised as different by writers who talk about the United Kingdom education system as if it were one smooth whole. This book describes recent developments in both legislation and practice in Scotland, drawing comparisons with the English system. Chapters cover adminis­ tration and management, early years education provision, the curriculum in Scotland, secondary education and special educa - tional needs. Margaret Clark is Emeritus Professor of Education at the Uni­ versity of Birmingham. Pamela Munn is Professor of Curriculum Research at Moray House Institute of Education, Edinburgh.

  • Homes Near Top Scottish Schools Command £73K Price Premium
    NOT FOR BROADCAST OR PUBLICATION BEFORE SATURDAY 1 SEPTEMBER 2018 HOMES NEAR TOP SCOTTISH SCHOOLS COMMAND £73K PRICE PREMIUM Parents pay a premium of almost £73,000 (36%) on average compared to average house prices across Scotland Average property prices have reached £277,134 near Scotland’s top 20 state secondary schools Parents need to pay an average of £72,973 more to live in the catchment area of a top performing state secondary school in Scotland, according to new research from Bank of Scotland showing that average prices in these areas have now reached £277,134. Home buyers are paying, on average, a premium of over a third (36%) when compared to houses in surrounding areas (£204,162). This is a significantly higher premium than last year, when the top 20 Scottish state schools were commanding a comparatively smaller premium of £41,441 on average or 22% more than other properties within the same local authority. This difference is due to a change in the mix of schools in the top 20 in the past year – with a number of new schools in relatively more expensive areas in the latest survey. New entrants such as Hyndland Secondary School in Glasgow and James Gillespie's High School in Edinburgh have driven up the average premium costing an average of 76% and 69% respectively than other homes in the same local authorities – topping the table in first and second position as the most expensive school catchments. There are six new entrants to the top 20 schools this year, all of which fall within the top 10 most expensive school catchments.
