This means having the courage to take risks and learn from their mistakes. Students can learn in an environment where their peers and their parents value education for its own sake, where teachers understand how to challenge and where the range of extra-curricular activities opens up new worlds and possibilities. Townley’s arts education gives students confidence when they enter school, dance being particularly popular, enabling girls to develop a positive self-image and a grounded sense of self, while Townley’s Science and Technology provision enables large numbers to pursue careers in science, computing and medicine. The school’s most recent Ofsted report also noted that “a culture of achievement and enjoyment permeates the academy.” With such an education the girls have a duty to grow into young women who desire to improve the world for others. As leaders of the future they learn to give and the value of service. Townley Grammar School has been recognized with multiple awards including being “Highly Commended” by the DFE in the National Character Education Awards and are recipients of the Mayor of ’s Excellence in Music Award. Townley students have been winners of the National Articulation Award, the Jack Petchey Speak Out Challenge Grand Final and the Bexley Young Musician of the Year Award to name but a few.

Follow us on Twitter - @PT_LondonSandE 5 Sept - 9 Oct ‘16 23 Importance of Times Tables Times tables are the key to a child’s development in mathematics. The way in which mathematics is taught to children has been the subject of much debate in recent years, with many parents raising concerns about teaching methods in UK schools. AE Publications firmly believe that times tables should be learned from as early an age as possible. All children should know the times tables up to 12 by the end of year 3. A sound recall of the times tables will form a strong foundation for all maths learning that follows and without this skill a child is likely to struggle. Learning times tables helps children understand number bonds up to and beyond 100. It also means they have no need for calculators when learning to multiply and divide using the paper and pen method. Children should learn times tables in a randomised way rather Choosing your New School than simply reciting them by rote. When using AE Times Tables workbooks a child is first presented with a times table to memorise, which is followed by the completion of random exercises focussing on that particular times table. This is reinforced by the use of times tables flash cards which enable parents or tutors to test a child’s knowledge in a fun and engaging way. The Times Tables workbooks are organised into structured, step-by-step, fifteen day programmes, which means a child could learn all the times tables up to 12 in just three working weeks (Workbook 1) and up to 20 in a Our Maths workbooks are further three working weeks (Workbook 2). The AE Publications range of Maths workbooks and testbooks are the perfect preparation available for purchase from www.aepublications.co.uk/bookshop by any parent who wants to see their child’s performance in maths for 11+ exams measurably improve.

Cooking with Compassion Does your child love cooking? Why not encourage them to put their skills to good use by entering Junior Compassionate Cook, the RSPCA Assured’s cookery video competition for 6 to 12 year olds? It’s a really fun way for kids who love to get creative in the kitchen to make the connection between good welfare and good food. What’s more, they’ll be in with a chance of winning some great prizes! To enter, simply film them preparing their favourite dish and upload the video to the RSPCA Assured website www. rspcaassured.org.uk/junior-compassionate-cook. Videos must not be longer than five minutes or more than 500MB. The recipe can be for anything they like, from sausages to salmon, chicken fajitas to chocolate brownies, but it must contain RSPCA Assured ingredients - whether it’s eggs, fish or meat. You have until Monday 14 November to enter. Voting closes on Tuesday 13 December, so the sooner they enter the better. If you’re looking for recipe inspiration, check out the website where you’ll find lots of useful tips, plus the 2015 winning video entries.
