Midland Studio College Nuneaton Author: Department for Education (Dfe)
Title: Midland Studio College Nuneaton Author: Department for Education (DfE) Impact Assessment – Section 9 Academies Act Duty 1. Section 9 of the Academies Act 2010 (later as amended by the Education Act 2011) places a duty on the Secretary of State to take into account what the impact of establishing the institution would likely be on maintained schools, Academies, institutions within the further education sector and alternative provision in the area in which the institution is (or is proposed to be) situated. Any adverse impact will need to be balanced against the benefits of establishing the new school. 2. We have carried out an Impact Assessment (see Annex B1) which concludes that the impact on most local schools should be minimal to moderate. One school, Nicholas Chamberlaine Technology College, is at a high general risk of losing a significant number of pupils. It is located less than the average distance travelled to secondary school by pupils in Warwickshire (2.07 miles) so, in principle, is likely to lose more pupils to the new Studio School than schools further away. Additionally, it has attainment below the national average and Ofsted considers that it ‘Requires Improvement’ so parents/pupils may be attracted to an alternative. 3. The school was undersubscribed for entry in 2011/2012 and has an existing surplus of places of 13%. The loss of even a few pupils could exacerbate the existing surplus issue in this school and there could be a significant impact on the school’s overall attainment, viability and ability to improve. However, the secondary school aged population is projected to increase over the next few years so any potential negative impact may be mitigated by an increased demand for secondary school places in the local area.

Thank you for the help you gave during the inspection and for the time you made available to discuss the actions which have been taken since the school’s previous monitoring inspection. The inspection was the third monitoring inspection since the academy became subject to special measures following the inspection which took place on 23 April 2013. The full list of the areas for improvement identified during that inspection is set out in the annex to this letter. The monitoring inspection report is attached. Having considered all the evidence I am of the opinion that at this time: The academy is making reasonable progress towards the removal of special measures. The academy’s action plans are fit for purpose. The academy may appoint newly qualified teachers, although I would recommend avoiding this in science. This letter and monitoring inspection report will be published on the Ofsted website. I am copying this letter and the monitoring inspection report to the Secretary of State, the Chair of the Interim Governing Body, Director of Children’s Services for Warwickshire, the Academies Advisers Unit and the Education Funding Agency.

Portugal has been highlighted as a success story in curriculum and educational reform, in particular due to the country’s leap in PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) test scores between 2006 and 2015. During the latter half of this period Portugal was able to achieve an outcome that many countries aspire to but few attain: increasing the share of top performers while simultaneously decreasing the share of low performers. Professor Nuno Crato OIH, who served as Minister of Education and Science in Portugal from 2011 to 2015, shared his insights into the country’s success story at the seminar, which attracted hundreds of participants from 59 countries.

Music in Schools: Sound Partnerships a Short Survey of Music Education Partnership Work in Schools 2011–12
Music in schools: sound partnerships A short survey of music education partnership work in schools 2011–12 This report highlights the benefits and pitfalls of partnership working in music education. It is based on visits to 59 schools by specialist music inspectors between September 2011 and July 2012, together with six further visits to observe good practice. Part A of the report identifies five key actions taken by schools that had developed effective music education partnerships. Part B draws on the good practice seen, by linking to eight good practice case studies on Ofsted’s website. These highlight how the best partnerships have improved provision for music in primary and secondary schools and a special school. The report includes guidance to help schools improve their partnership working in music education, including with the new music education hubs. The report was commissioned by the Department for Education in November 2011 as part of the National Plan for Music Education.
