Online Brynteg News Cyhoeddiad 61 Newyddion Brynteg Ar Iein 15th September 2017 Issue No. 61 15 Medi 2017 Online Brynteg News Cyhoeddiad 61 Newyddion Brynteg Ar Iein Dear Parent/Carer, It is a pleasure to write to you as the new Headteacher of Brynteg School. It is a privilege to be able to lead a school which has achieved so highly over the years and I certainly intend to build on this to ensure that Brynteg is even more successful in the future. My work this term will be dominated by my belief that only happy children learn. I see it as my role to ensure that every single pupil enjoys coming to school, that they feel that they are an important part of the school and ultimately, with these in place, they feel able to learn and achieve. This term has certainly started in an extremely positive way as we celebrate excellent results at Key Stage 3, 4 and the sixth form. Recent press coverage focussed on the many successes of our pupils as they collected their results this summer. Whilst it is too early to provide you with an in-depth analysis of our performance, the following head- lines deserve to be celebrated: 90% of our year 9 pupils achieved at least a level 5 in maths, science and English (the core subject indicator) 63% of our year 11 pupils achieved at least 5A*-C grades including maths and English 26% of our year 11 pupils achieved at least 5 A*-A grades 98% of our year 13 pupils achieved at least 2 A*-E grades 25% of the grades achieved by our year 13 pupils were at A*-A Whilst this level of performance is excellent, I will seek to build on this further and achieve even higher outcomes in the future. Our Open Evening for prospective pupils, parents and carers takes place on Thursday 28th September from 4.30pm. This is aimed at those pupils who are currently in year 5 or 6 in our local primary schools. Please would you help us to promote this by mentioning this to those who you think may be interested. I intend to hold open meetings with parents and carers where you will be able to ask me questions about any aspect of our provision. These will take place as follows: Thursday 19th October 6pm – Lower School hall (parents/carers of y7/8/9) Thursday 26th October 6pm – Upper School hall (parents/carers of y10/11/12/13) The meetings are intended to be informal and will be followed up with further meetings in the spring and summer terms. Further information about events and activities can be found in our regular newsletter and on Facebook (Bryntegschool) and Twitter (@bryntegschool). Finally, can I thank you for your support. The response to the change in uniform has been outstanding and it is a pleasure to see the positive impact that the introduction of blazers has had across the school. I look forward to working with you. Best wishes, Mr Ryan Davies Headteacher What a fantastic start to the new academic year. Thank you to our pupils, parents and carers for supporting the new uniform changes so well. We have received a number of supporting messages from people in the community stating how seeing the pupils dressed in their blazers have created such a positive impression. Thank you. Contacting the School – A Kindly Reminder Mobile Phones and contacting the school Important: Please can we remind parents to refrain from contacting pupils during the school day and most importantly to avoid doing so via their mobile phone. It places pupils in a very difficult situation should a call come during a lesson. According to our mobile device policy, this could result in sanctions against the pupil, the phone being confiscated and parents being asked to come to the school to collect. Equally we have had instances where pupils have contacted parents about an issue or illness on their mobile, against school rules and policy, often without informing the school itself. Consequently we have had parents turn up at reception demanding that we resolve an issue or illness that we were unaware of in the first place. If there is an emergency please contact the school on 01656 641800 and we will find pupils as requested As a school we encourage partnership working between teachers and parents and keeping in touch is an important and valued part of this successful partnership. However, recently our busy switchboard has seen an unprecedented rise in the number of calls from parents, the majority of which are routine and non-urgent. Can we politely remind parents that there are a number of ways in which you can contact the school that may help parent messages and enquiries to be dealt with more efficiently and save you the frustration of hanging on waiting for your call to be answered. It would also prevent our switchboard being clogged up with routine calls and allow us to give priority to urgent and emergency calls. A note in your child’s planner For routine messages such as dental appointments, lost kit, homework queries. Email: [email protected] Please state your child’s name and form and if relevant, who the email is for. Your email will then be forwarded to the relevant person. For non urgent routine enquires and reporting any concerns, change of address, pupil absences, school trip information. Telephone: 01656 641800 For urgent and emergency matters only please. We reiterate that we are happy to hear from you and thank you for using the appropriate method of contacting us. Mobile phones and MP3 players If you are caught using a mobile phone or MP3 player in class or anywhere on the school grounds it will be confiscated. It will be returned only to your parents/carers who will have to come to school to pick it up. Failure to hand over a mobile phone to staff will have serious disciplinary consequences. Message Board Staff Development Days The school will be closed to pupils on the following dates: Friday 16th February 2018 Thursday 29th March 2018 Monday 23rd July 2018 Tuesday 24th July 2018 The term for pupils will end on Friday 20th July 2018.

A-Level Results Day 2017 We are delighted with this year’s results, which once again reflect the hard work of students and staff at Brynteg. These results build on the school’s long tradition of academic excellence in the Sixth Form, with some outstanding individual results. The vast majority of our students are now looking forward to attending their first choice of university. Naturally, we wish all of our students every success for the future! Mr Ryan Davies (Headteacher) Exam Success! Brynteg GCSE Results Day 2017 We are very pleased with this year’s GCSE results, which once again confirm the very high standards we achieve within Brynteg. Performance within English, Maths and Science was very strong. We congratulate all of our pupils and staff on the results. Their hard work has once again been rewarded. Twenty five pupils achieved ten or more A*/A grades and nearly 25% of the cohort achieved 5 or more A*/A grades. We look forward to welcoming back the vast majority of year 11 into our exceptionally successful Sixth Form to further build on their successful GCSE performance.

  • Admissions Policy Final 2017-18
    Admissions Policy Final 2017-18 Date adopted: 14th July 2016 Headteacher Signature. Chair of Governors Signature: To be reviewed: in accordance with BCBC guidance 1 2 School Admissions Policy and Arrangements 2017-2018 A. THE ADMISSION AUTHORITY The entry of children to schools is controlled and administered by an ‘Admission Authority’. In the case of community schools, this is the local authority (LA), that is, Bridgend County Borough Council (LA). In accordance with the Education (Relevant Areas for Consultation on Admission Arrangements) Regulations 1999, the relevant area for the Admission Authority is the geographical area of the county borough of Bridgend. Where the LA is the admission authority, the school’s governing body is under a duty to implement the LA’s decision on applications, and to act in accordance with the LA’s admission arrangements. The Council continuously reviews and reserves the right to amend its admissions procedures for non-statutory education. In the case of voluntary aided schools, the admission authority is the governing body of the individual school. Further information about admission to voluntary aided schools is set out in Section V. B. PARENTAL PREFERENCE The LA has a statutory duty to have regard to the general principle that pupils are to be educated in accordance with the wishes of their parents, so far as that would be compatible with the provision of efficient education and the avoidance of unreasonable public expenditure (S.9 Education Act 1996). Within the County Borough of Bridgend each school has an area it serves, although the LA must allow all parents/carers the opportunity to express a positive preference for the school they would wish their child to attend.
