Students interview Mr MacCormick - ...and a whole lot more. available to view on our website soon. Headteacher’s Message Welcome to this half term’s edition of our newsletter. I am very proud of the students and staff whose activities and achievements are within its pages. We have had a great half term which has had a real sense of drive and purpose about what we are working towards together. There has been a really positive feel around the Academy, too. Holyrood exists to serve our community and to ensure that young people of all abilities and backgrounds have the grades, experiences and skills they need to be truly successful. It means a great deal to me that our students are having opportunities to broaden their horizons, experience learning outside of the classroom and experience life outside of their local area. If your son or daughter has not yet become involved in teams, clubs or trips, please do encourage them! These are fantastic places to build self-confidence and meet new people. We are on an exciting improvement journey and I am delighted to announce that two new Senior Leaders will be joining us. Mr Jonathan Black (Deputy Headteacher) will be joining us after Easter and Mr Rob Crocker (Deputy Headteacher) will be joining us in September. Both Mr Black and Mr Crocker are experienced and talented Senior Leaders who will bring new skills and ideas to our Senior Leadership Team. As you know, I am always happy to hear from parents - please do contact me and let me know how your child is getting on at school. If there is something we are doing really well, please let us know so that we can recognise the work of our staff. If there is something you think we could do better, again I would really value your feedback as this informs our improvement. It is always a pleasure to see our students being recognised for what they are doing well - I hope you enjoy this edition. Mr Dave MacCormick Headteacher Following us? Be the first to know Issue 02 2 Date 13.02.2020 Awards Evening 2019 The 16th December saw another memorable and special Awards Evening for our students. The Academy hall was packed with award-winners and their families celebrating academic, sporting, artistic and community success. The audience enjoyed a presentation from guest speaker Nick Corkill about his adventurous life and inspiration to our students. SUBJECT AWARDS MAJOR AWARDS Major Award winners Issue 02 3 Date 13.02.2020 Y9 Drama On a very wet Tuesday afternoon in December 2019, Holyrood Year 9 GCSE Drama students battled the wind and the rain to perform their children's theatre devised performances to Manor Court Primary School. The Year 3 and 4 children were treated to a collection of some Roald Dahl inspired performances, including such classics as The Twits, The Witches and Matilda. I was extremely proud of all the effort, energy and enthusiasm my GCSE students put into delivering such interesting and entertaining performances to such a young Mrs Twit audience. Which is by no means an easy job! After the show, the cast completed a Q&A with the audience to summarise what they thought went well and if they had any feedback for the cast to work on if they were to perform their plays again. In which one very lovely Year 4 boy answered "I think the only thing you need to work on is making it longer because we wanted to see more! It was just so funny and completely brilliant!" A great quote for the Year 9s to use in their written evaluations I think! Congratulations Year 9 on a fantastic performance assessment. Mrs Shaun Matilda Matilda On their way...in the rain!

Mr Reid We are thrilled to announce that MINDfest will be returning to Holyrood for it's second year. Our aim of this event is to provide students with strategies and information on how to look after their mental health and wellbeing, and this year want to make MINDfest bigger and better than ever! WE NEED YOUR HELP! We are looking for volunteers who would like to run workshops with students and share their knowledge and experiences of mental health with them. You would be assisted by a member of staff and be a recognised part of this wonderful day for our young people.

Issue 02 5 Date 13.02.2020 Holyrood Governance Holyrood Academy Local Governance Committee has four Parent Governors, elected from the parent body. Governors generally serve a four year term of office, but this can be extended. JONATHAN FAREY Jonathan is the longest serving governor at Holyrood, with a farming, forestry, building and landscaping background. Currently a full-time farmer, Jonathan is involved with the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, organising a consultation process to feed into a new stewardship programme. He is the parent of a student in Year 13 and all his children have attended Holyrood, coming from its feeder primary school in Combe St. Nicholas. Jonathan is a director of The Watch Project in Chard which helps people aged over 18 with different issues, through peer support. Along with his wife, Jonathan helps run a youth theatre in Chard for 8 to 18 year olds which he finds very rewarding. Jonathan thoroughly enjoys being a Governor, working with interesting and dedicated people in a team, all for the good of our young people, who will hold the future before long. Jonathan feels we must inspire them as he has been inspired to try and make the world a better, fairer place. RICHARD POOLE A recently appointed Parent Governor, Richard is the parent of a Year 7 student who was previously a pupil at Combe St. Nicholas Primary School. Originally from Cornwall, Richard moved to Chard in 2009. Richard has been a police officer with Devon and Cornwall Police for the last 22 years. He currently works for the Police Federation, but has previously been an armed response officer. He calls himself a veteran Royal Navy engineer and was a member of the Padstow Lifeboat crew for 17 years, and the Coastguard cliff rescue team based in Newquay. Having successfully set up a joint Police/NHS partnership mental health project, he is currently advising the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in setting up a similar scheme. Richard describes his own education path as vocational rather than academic, and having had decades of experience in public service has the strong belief that the importance of investing in our children’s education cannot be understated. Becoming a Governor is Richard’s way of playing a small part in making Holyrood Academy the best it can possibly be. Careers Focus YEAR 10 WORK EXPERIENCE Year 10 students will be completing their work experience from 22nd – 26th June 2020. This is an exciting opportunity for our students to experience what work life will be like for them and to gain some fantastic hands-on experience. Work experience placements should be organised by the end of February. Please work with your child in order to arrange this. If there are any queries, please don’t hesitate to contact their tutor. NATIONAL CAREERS WEEK National Careers Week is at the beginning of March. There will lots of discussions with students in lessons about the types of careers that each subject can lead into and teachers will be discussing the different paths they have undertaken. There will also be information about the types of careers that are predicted in the South West and what are the most popular careers in our area currently.

  • 02/11/2017 Re: Introduction to the Flying Start Challenge
    02/11/2017 RE: INTRODUCTION TO THE FLYING START CHALLENGE 2017/2018 Dear Parent/Guardian, I am writing to introduce you to the Flying Start Challenge, something that your child has signed up to take part in for the next few months. What is the Flying Start Challenge? The Flying Start Challenge (FSC) is yearly STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) event that aims to inspire and promote engineering to children in years 7 – 9. The aim of the challenge itself is to design and build hand-launched gliders to fly as far as possible. The competition includes a regional fly-off competition, which all schools are invited to take part in. The regional competition consists of a series of a glider fly-off between all participating teams, as well as activities which challenges students’ knowledge and understanding of engineering. Winning schools are then invited to the Grand Final, which in previous years has been held at Fleet Air Arm Museum near Yeovil. Teams taking part in the various engineering activities at the Grand Final can win great prizes, including a cash prize towards funding STEM equipment for the winning school. As part of the competition the teams can win various individual prizes as well as prizes for their school which includes STEM vouchers for £1000, £500 and £250. Companies currently supporting the program include: Airbus, Atkins, BAE Systems, GKN Aerospace, Leonardo Helicopters, MBDA, Rolls-Royce, Triumph and Safran. These companies provide employees to support students taking part in the challenge. This support includes the delivery of teaching material, some glider building supplies, and advice throughout.

  • Nailsea School NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2020 | Term 3
    Nailsea School NEWSLETTER FEBRUARY 2020 | Term 3 A Message from the Head We are looking forward to the next break after what has been a busy and useful term. Year 7 & 8 students have been concentrating on improving their studies and focusing on building a good foundation for their future. There have been opportunities such as the Science Fair and the STEM day where some year 7 students were able to meet and talk to industry professionals. Year 9s have been selecting their options and thinking hard about how they can shape their own future, whilst years 10 & 11 are getting to the business end of planning and building a strong foundation for their revision and exam preparation. Term 3 is very much a behind-the-scenes sort of term, a time for staff and students to nurture themselves, ready to breathe fresh air into the way they work, to take stock ready for Term 4 when spring encourages everyone to flourish. I hope that you enjoy your break and use this time to think about what actions and preparations you can make to get the ‘best in show’ award this Spring. A Message from the Governors This term the Governors were pleased to attend the Year 11 ‘Prep for Success’ evening. We were impressed to see the variety of extra support being provided, including the catch up sessions, and revision resources and advice on how to revise. The new Year 11 tutor groups are also supporting students with creating and planning individual revision plans. Thank you to all the staff for their passion and commitment supporting our Year 11s.

  • Written Evidence Submitted by the Department for Education (Dfe) with a Contribution from the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) (ES00)
    Written evidence submitted by the Department for Education (DfE) with a contribution from the Department of Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS) (ES00) Summary 1. This submission sets out how Government policy supports the development of engineering skills and benefits the engineering industry. It explains how current educational reforms will ensure that more young people leave school with a more rigorous grounding in mathematics and the sciences, create a more educated society in which pupils are able to excel whatever their background and bring benefits both directly and indirectly to engineering. Reforming the Education system 2. The Government’s educational reforms are designed to secure more rigorous academic achievement and to put in place an assessment system which engineering employers will understand and have confidence in. We are revising the National Curriculum to be slimmer and more challenging and which is comparable with those of the highest-performing countries in the world. It will focus more sharply on the core essential knowledge that matters, and leave room for additional subjects and courses without sacrificing academic rigour in the traditional subjects. We expect the next generation of pupils to leave school with a better command of language, literacy and general knowledge, and a stronger understanding of mathematics and science. 3. In launching the new National Curriculum, we have already reaffirmed the primacy of the core subjects of English, mathematics and science throughout primary and secondary education. We have released new draft primary programmes of study for English, mathematics and science in advance of a formal public consultation later in the year. These set out a more systematic approach which supports better subject progression.
