SPIRIT “Aspire not to have more, but to be more.” #5. FOCUS Confidence and self-belief Cover image: The cast of Little Shop of Horrors SPRING TERM 2019 SENIOR SCHOOL AND SIXTH FORM Welcome Welcome to the spring issue of our Senior School termly publication, Aspire. As always, our termly edition of Aspire reflects the huge array of activities going on in school. From our musical productions to extra-curricular engineering projects and from sporting prowess to university applications, our girls are always busy. This term has seen International Women’s Day and, as always, we spend time reflecting on the importance of gender equality as well as those women who break barriers and, by so doing, remind the girls that they can achieve in any area of life. The account of Lucinda Beeson and her flying success is testament to this and she together with our alumnae community, who come into school to talk to the girls, are a constant reminder that they can, too, have unlimited aspirations for their own future. Indeed, I often receive comments from staff about an amazing piece of work completed by a student and I see, first hand, their resilience and perseverance when faced with challenge. I enjoy, hugely, my daily break time conversations with girls. Whether we discuss GCSE preparations or their love of netball, such conversations are the highlights of my day. I have talked to the girls in assembly Mrs Helen Jeys about the ‘bad reputation’ their generation has as the so-called ‘Generation Snowflake’. This ‘Snowflake Generation’ or ‘Generation Z’, as they are known, are Headmistress stereotyped as lazy, narcissistic, ‘phone addicted young people who are too earnest to meet any kind of potential. This is not the experience, thankfully (!), that I have of this generation. In fact, much of the research suggests that this generation is the most well-behaved generation for some time! I also reassured them that, in 1988, Douglas Hurd (the then Home Secretary), commented that the generation of the 1980’s had “too little self-discipline and too little notion of the care and responsibility that [we] owe to others.” It seems, then, that the manner in which teenagers have been stereotyped has changed little over the last thirty years! So, all of my experiences in education leave me very hopeful about our leaders of the future; certainly if the girls who are just about to leave AESG in the Upper Sixth, have anything to go by. They are eloquent, personable and confident young women and we wish them and our Year 11 girls all the very best for their exams next term. They reflect what I feel that AESG does best and that is to teach girls their academic subjects alongside the nurturing of them and their talents. Martin Luther King taught us that “intelligence plus character – that is the goal of true education”; I think that the contents of Aspire reflect our aim todo just that. All the very best for a fabulous Easter break. Best Wishes Helen Jeys Headmistress ASPIRE ALDERLEY EDGE SCHOOL FOR GIRLS 03 SPRING TERM 2019 SENIOR SCHOOL AND SIXTH FORM Senior Sporting Success!

Continuing to follow an international player’s daily routine, the girls then moved from the changing area to the ‘media’ room, where they were taken through a briefing on the role the media have in promoting netball and wider womens’ sport. This included Sky Sports, the BBC and the off-court roles and responsibilities the players have. As part of the session, the girls took part in a role-playing ‘question and answer’ session.

This project is part of a wider pan Cheshire audit of youth arts including; a separate document also for East Cheshire, a sub-regional and county wide audit in Cheshire as well as a report analysis recommendations for youth arts for the future. This also precedes the new structure of Cheshire’s two county unitary authorities following LGR into East and West Cheshire and Chester, which will come into being in April 2009 An audit of this kind will never be fully accurate, comprehensive and up-to-date. Some data will be out-of-date or incorrect as soon as it’s printed or written, and we apologise for any errors or omissions. The youth arts audit aims to produce a snapshot of the activity that takes place in West Cheshire provided by the many arts, culture and youth organisations based in the county in the spring and summer of 2008– we hope it is a fair and balanced picture, giving a reasonable impression of the scale and scope of youth arts activities, organisations and opportunities – but it is not entirely exhaustive and does not claim to be.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
