How ever, the gap in Hartlepool related to boys writing rather than reading and as such future strategies should be focused upon boys literacy and in particular w riting; (b) That the A uthority s hould be commended on the appointment of a dedicated Rais ing Boys’ Ac hievement Co- ordinator and that the findings of this scr utiny inv estigation w ould clearly feed into the development of future practices. (c) That it w as evident that there w as no ‘one fits all’ strategy that w ould addr ess the boys ’ under achievement iss ue and w here strategies w ere successful in Hartlepool, it w as as a result of indiv idual schools implementing innovative initiatives and practic es tailored to their ow n cultural environments; (d) That in recognition of the differing ways in which individuals learn the curriculum should be tailor ed w here possible, and vocational c ourses utilis ed, to meet the needs of individual boys ; (e) That there w as a need to encourage schools in Har tlepool to share best practice and w hilst infor mal arrangement w ere in place consideration needed to be giv en to the creation of a formal netw ork and perhaps Hartlepool’s inv olv ement in a regional netw ork; (f) That transition arr angements for pupils moving betw een primary and secondary schools appeared on a w hole to be w orking effectively in Hartlepool although it was evident that further improv ements could be made; (g) That in view of the effectiveness of the National Education Breakthrough Programme for Raising Boys’ Achievements in helping other local authorities to rais e boys’ achievement levels, there w as a need to explore the extension of schools involvement in the programme w ithin Hartlepool; (h) That it w as evident that a ‘cluster’ funding approach to reduce the costs of involvement in the National Education Breakthrough Programme w ould be beneficial; (i) That to ensur e the effectiveness of the ‘rolling out’ of the Blended Lear ning Project it w as crucial for adequate staffing arr angements to be in place; (j) That whils t the Primary School Enquiry Groups had recently been established there may be a benefit for Elected Me mber involvement in 07.01. 05 - Scrutin y Co-ordin ating Co mmitt ee Minut es 3 Hartlepool Bor ough Council Scrutiny Co-ordinating Co mmittee - Minutes – 5th January 2007 3.1 them together w ith the cr eation of similar groups for Secondary Schools; (k) That a large factor in boys reaching their true potential w as the provision of good all r ound support and this w as partic ular ly applicable to parents; and (l) That w hilst Departmental Action Plans were in place to address the underac hievement of boys’ there w as clearly a need for the establishment of a separate departmental policy/str ategy.

  • Dressed to Detect
    OUTLOOK EPILEPSY of large convulsive seizures experienced by children with epilepsy1. What’s more, the Q Sensor produced few incorrect signals — less ICTALCARE than one false alarm per day on average — and most of these were triggered by forceful, rhyth- mic motion, such as shaking dice or vigorously playing with a Nintendo Wii. About one-third of people with epilepsy continue to experience seizures despite an increasing number of available drug treatments and considerable progress in surgery (see page S12 and page S7). A portable device that warns of an impending attack could help people prepare for a seizure by lying down, say, or taking a rescue medication. Existing devices can only record epileptic events that are already occurring — a major limitation for now. Researchers therefore hope to find measurable biomarkers that would warn the wearer of a seizure before it strikes. Nonetheless, even a device that falls short of that goal could dramatically alleviate the burden of disease. It could provide real-time information on how well a medication is working, or it could help people determine whether they need to seek medical atten- tion. In one of Picard and Poh’s studies, for example, they showed2 that surges in elec- tro-dermal activity detected by their device correlated with a measure of brain activity thought to be linked to the risk of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy, a mysterious complication of the disease that is the most common cause of epilepsy-related deaths. “This autonomic information tells you some- thing that turns out to be really important in terms of what’s going on inside the brain,” says Picard.

  • Better Health Programme Engagement with the Voluntary and Community Sector Report
    NHS Better Health Programme Engagement with the Voluntary and Community Sector Report November 2016 NHS Better Health Programme Engagement with the voluntary and community sector 1. Background to 100 conversations: The NHS Better Health Programme (BHP) committed to having conversations with over 100 voluntary and community sector groups and organisations across County Durham, Darlington and Tees Valley. The aim was to have these ‘conversations between August and the end of October 2016 as part of the BHP Phase 3 Engagement plan to inform the formal public consultation options. NHS Better Health Programme particularly wanted to encourage smaller community-based groups and organisations to engage in conversations about the NHS Better Health Programme representing the following: . Groups whose members identified themselves as having ‘protected characteristics,’ as defined in current equalities legislation (sex, disability, race, age, religion & belief, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy & maternity) Groups that may meet regularly but do not normally choose, or have the opportunity, to engage in discussions around this type of health issue. This work will enable NHS Better Health Programme to build a full picture of the needs of all parts of the community, particularly groups that experience health and wellbeing inequalities and enable members of those groups and communities to influence the health services they use. 1 2. The structure for voluntary and community sector engagement VONNE as a regional infrastructure organisation representing and supporting the voluntary sector with significant reach over the BHP area acted as the lead body and worked with other CVS/ LDA ( Local development agencies), Healthwatch and key special interest group organisations as ‘Delivery Partners’ to support delivery of the 100 conversations across County Durham and Tees Valley.
