1 The King Edmund School A Business & Enterprise and Applied Learning Academy JANUARY 2012 KES NEWS year 11 students receive their mock gcse results Students in Year 11 completed their mock examinations before the Christmas break and have now received their results in a Results Day setting in the same way as they will get the news in August. Some students were clearly apprehensive as they lined up to receive their envelopes, whilst others were visibly excited to see what they had achieved. There was a real mixture of emotions once they opened their envelopes. Some students were overjoyed at seeing a reward for all their hard work, however for others the results were not as they expected. Most students did feel that the results they received reflected the amount of preparation they had done and that regardless of their results they would revise more for the real exams. The Year 11 Tutor Team are now going to support the students in reflecting on their mock results to help them to draw out the lessons that they have learnt from the experience. They are also going to support students in planning time for their revision and suggest some effective revision techniques they could use to fully prepare for their real exams later in the year.

2 senior leadership team update Jonathan Osborn, Headteacher The start of a new year is always a good time for reflection and taking stock of things. Schools are no different from people in this respect there is the annual cycle of exam results and thinking about students progress as well as the areas of the school which have been worked on. However, every so often schools look at more fundamental things underlying aims, what really motivates them, what are the most important things, what they stand for. This is something that we have been thinking about as a school for some time now. Since starting as Headteacher in September 2010, I have spent time getting to know the school, talking with staff, students, parents and other members of the school community. We have made various changes to school life in that time. I am sure some of them have been obvious and wellreceived the changes to KES News are one of these. However, some decisions may not been agreeable to everyone but I do hope though that what has come across is my desire for KES to be excellent. I firmly believe that it is absolutely essential that schools challenge and support students to be the very best they can. We recognise that there are areas where we have not yet achieved this, but that is our aim. I mentioned previously the surveys that many of you contributed to towards the end of last year. The feedback from these, and the various parent groups that Mia Whitmore, our Marketing Manager, met with, gave very clear feedback about areas of the school to improve and focus on. One such area was the structure of breaktimes in school. We are looking at that closely now and I will be writing to parents separately about it and all the other feedback before the end of this term. In the last few weeks we have welcomed several new members of staff to the school. Helen Clubb joins us from St Edward s School in Romford as Assistant Head with responsibility for KS4 Interventions. This means that she will work closely with students in Years 10 and 11 and their teachers to co-ordinate support to ensure they achieve their best. This is a new post and increases our ability to help and support students. She will be managing the work of two other new members of staff: Kirsty MacDonald and Wendy Solomon. They have taken up roles as Learning Mentors (although Wendy was already working at KES prior to this as an English teacher). Kate England also joins us as our new attendance officer; you may well speak to her if your child is absent from school for any reason. In all of this, the aim is to strengthen the staff team so that we can support students more effectively to achieve their very best. Helen Clubb, Assistant Head Kirsty MacDonald, Learning Mentor Wendy Solomon, Learning Mentor Kate England, Attendance Officer We were delighted recently with the GCSE Mathematics results gained by a number of KES students who took their Maths GCSE in November. Around fifty students entered with twenty five gaining a C grade and virtually everyone else just missing out with a D grade. This was especially pleasing as these students were not our top mathematicians but KES students whose target grades were C s and D s. To achieve the grades they did in November was no mean feat. For those who gained a grade C, we are challenging them to push on and get a grade B; for those who just missed out we fully expect them to move up to a grade C at their next attempt. To help with this we are embarking on another round of our Saturday sessions of revision with lots of Maths to work on, but with a pizza and a drink thrown in too. Our Year 11 students received their mock GCSE examination results on the 15 January. The aim was to replicate the results day students will experience in August, but with their mock results. The message we want to get across is simple; if your results sheet does not give you what you want, what will you change or do differently to ensure it has the results you need by August? Year 11 students seemed to gain a great deal from the process and we hope to see students making changes that rewrite those results sheets for August. 2

3 Over the past few months, following on from the surveys completed by staff, students and parents, we have been looking at what our vision and values are as a school what we want to be achieving and what we want our school to be. From conversations with parents, staff and students we have narrowed down our views to this statement - IN PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE. In everything we do, we want to pursue excellence, whether in terms of the quality of teaching, the quality of exam results for students, the quality of the school buildings or in how we treat each other. We want this pursuit to be at the heart of all we do. We believe that the six values we have created capture what it will mean for us to be excellent. For this to become a reality, though, will require a shared effort on the part of everyone. We are aware that there are things we want to work on and improve, but these values give us a map to help us work out what to do and to guide us. My hope and aim is that if we look back in a year, two years, five years we will see a school where these values are increasingly a reality. We start with these values as our route map, but we also need to know what they look like in practice. We have been working on these behaviours and I will give further details of these in the nest issue of KES News. For now, I hope, as you look at the values, you feel that these capture the spirit of KES, but also put into words what we should aim to be. If you have any thoughts or comments about these, I would love to hear them. IN PURSUIT OF EXCELLENCE KES SCHOOL VALUES The King Edmund School Our school is one where everyone is encouraged and supported to achieve their personal best Our school is welcoming, inclusive, has a real community feel and is a place where everyone is valued Our students and staff treat each other equally, fairly, with kindness and with mutual respect Our students and staff are enterprising and approach challenges with a can-do attitude Our environment is safe and clean with everyone sharing responsibility for it Our culture is one of continuous improvement, creativity and enthusiasm 3

4 senior leadership team update Sue Nichol, Deputy Head, Pastoral and day-to-day Friction Burns Youngsters come up with some ludicrous ways of entertaining themselves at times, but the latest YouTube fuelled craze is honestly quite alarming and has the potential to cause significant skin damage. Sadly there have been a number of KES students falling for it since the beginning of term. It is apparently entertaining to create friction burns on the back of the hand or arm, using a rubber band or eraser, to the point that the skin is red raw and bleeding. We have had several students coming down to Student Reception asking for their wounds to be dressed, and their injuries are awful. Please can I ask all parents to keep a very careful eye on their sons and daughters in this respect. If students come down to Reception seeking medical attention we will be phoning parents and asking them to come and collect them and take them for treatment; we are very concerned about the risk of infection and are not permitted to apply any antiseptic ointments in school. We can only hope that this is a short-lived craze. Uniform Girls trousers are becoming an issue again as far as school uniform is concerned. Parents were reminded of school uniform requirements at the end of the summer term and there has not been any change in this regard since then. Please can I reiterate what was said about trousers: They should be straight cut and neither excessively narrow or baggy. Skinny trousers are not acceptable for school; the material must be loose enough that it does not allow the leg shape to show. The current fashion for tight trousers that hug the leg beneath the knee are not part of the uniform and parents are asked to ensure that their daughter s trousers are the correct style for school. Martin Haynes, Deputy Head, Curriculum As detailed in the previous edition of KES News, our Year 9 students are in the process of choosing some of the subjects they would like to follow at GCSE. There are a number of key points in this process: - Year 9 Options Evening 30 January Year 9 Parent Consultation Evening 6 February Return of application form 14 February. I will be speaking to students about the decisions they need to make, this will take place during their assembly on Wednesday 23rd January. I would like to congratulate Year 11 students who took their GCSE examination in Mathematics last November. The results they achieved were very good and a testament to their hard work. Most of these students attended a series of Saturday revision sessions and one-to-one tuition; it just goes to show that you reap what you sow. We have received a record number of applications (internal and external) from students wishing to join our Sixth Form in September We are now at the stage of organising a formal interview for each applicant to check the appropriateness of their choices and to finalise an offer from the school. These interviews will take place during the last two weeks of this half term. The Library is currently running a competition in which students are required to identify (from photographs) and write a brief explanation of key events from I would urge students from all year groups to take part, especially since the main prize is a Kindle e-reader. You have to be in it to win it! 4

5 Heads of year update Year 7 Happy New Year, I hope both students and parents had a pleasant two weeks holiday. Thank you to the students who prepared Christmas boxes for the Operation Christmas Child processing centre. This project is an initiative of Samaritan s Purse. The boxes were sent to Romania and they were gratefully received. Can I please remind students to review their Enterprise Passports regularly. Once they have completed their bronze section, they should hand them to me so that I can organise their awards. Natasha Jenkins, Head of Year 7 Year 8 It was a pleasure to see so many of you at the recent Year 8 parent consultation evening. I hope you took the opportunity to discuss your child s recent report with their teachers and that the students are now fully aware of how they can continue to make improvements. Can I also remind all parents of Year 8 girls that their next and last HPV immunisation will be on Wednesday 27 March. Year 9 Delia Webster, Head of Year 8 I hope all families had an enjoyable Christmas and new year break and the students are prepared for a very busy half term. I would like to draw your attention to two important events with regards to Year 9. The first is on the evening of 30 January and is an information evening regarding the options that Year 9 students will follow. The second event is on 6 February and is the parents consultation evening and will give you the opportunity to discuss your child s progress in school. I look forward to seeing you at both events Tom Hickey, Head of Year 9 Year 10 I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and that students have recovered from the previous long term. It is so important that attendance is a priority with students completing controlled assessments and still working hard with course material for their GCSE courses. There is no doubt that there is a direct link between exam success and excellent attendance. Mrs Maslen is still working hard to ensure that all students have completed their work experience forms and placements are suitable. Year 11 All Year 10 students have had a session held by Tim Foot which will help give them help and strategies on how to revise. His sessions are titled Revision Cracked. Emma Cooke, Head of Year 10 I hope everybody had a lovely Christmas. As we enter 2013 I hope the students are prepared, focused and looking forward to what lies ahead. This is the most crucial time in the student s school career to date as we approach different exams and the end of their compulsory education. We will start to discuss the Prom with the Prom Committee soon along with yearbooks and leavers hoodies. However, I would like to make it abundantly clear that the focus for the students must remain on their exams. Parents are reminded that a student s attendance at the Prom is not an automatic right and will depend upon attendance being satisfactory. Sarah Stone, Head of Year 11 Sixth Form January is always a time for reflection and as we look back over last term, we are impressed with the achievements and accomplishments of our students. The autumn term ended in the traditional way for Sixth Formers, as they gathered together on the last day, for the Christmas Quiz. Our thanks go to Charlotte and Kate for the time and hard work they invested in organising the event, which was much enjoyed by staff and students alike. Our A Level students then spent the Christmas break immersed in revision for their January exams; we look forward to receiving the results on Thursday 7 March. We are delighted to announce that over 60% of our Year 13 students have applied for university places, this year. It is particularly satisfying to know that our students have retained their high aspirations, given that we know UCAS has received fewer applications in total this year. Students are now receiving offers of places and should ask for advice if they are confused or unsure about the decisions they will need to make. Julie Green, Head of Year 12 Kate Booker Head of Year 13 5

6 FACULTY FOCUS ON mathematics At the start of this year, Year 7 were visited by the Mathematics Roadshow with Sue Hickman-Pinder from the Cambridge NRich Project. She ran a series of sessions introducing our young mathematicians to a variety of practical problem solving activities. During December we organised two trips for Year 11 and 12/13 to a series of lectures at the University of London Institute of Education which were enjoyed by all. We continue to offer enrichment activities and clubs for all abilities and year groups. This year, Mr Doyle s Maths Club (which runs each Friday) has been well attended, as has Mr Hankinson s Year 11 Club for gifted Year 11 Mathematicians. Our Sixth Form Maths clubs have also proven popular again this year and our AS/ A2 students are reaping the benefits from all their hard work and revision. There are also a range of revision clubs, particularly for Year 10 and 11 students who wish to boost their current grade. The Mathematics Faculty will continue to provide an extensive programme of support for Year 11 students including; 1:1 tuition with Mrs Rickwood, small group tuition with Mr Hankinson, Saturday morning C/D revision classes and after school revision for modular resits. Thank you to all those students who have taken part in these extra revision activities. Many of our Year 11 students clearly benefited from the extra support provided (as well as an ample amount of independent study) and twenty five students have recently gained a GCSE C grade in the November exams. We are very pleased with the progress that these students have made in recent months and look forward to seeing many B grades in the Higher Tier examination in the summer. Congratulations! May I take this opportunity to remind you all that students are required to bring a scientific calculator to every Mathematics lesson. Whilst there are many different types of calculator out there, we have found the new Casio calculators to be the most popular and easiest to use (these are available from the school shop in one of three colours for 7). Year 10/11 students who wish to purchase a GCSE revision guide and workbook ( 2 each) or Year 12 students requiring an AS/A2 guidebook should enquire at the Maths office as we still have some available. Louise Varcoe, Director of Mathematics Key Stage 3 Maths Club KES Mathematics Club continues to run every Friday from 2.15pm until 3.30pm. The club gives students a chance to catch up on homework, with support provided if necessary. Students also find it useful to go through new topics that have been covered recently during their Mathematics lessons. Students also enjoy many other Maths based activities, from breaking codes to solving murder mysteries, to shocking each other using the Shocking Quiz game. 6

7 FACULTY FOCUS ON mathematics GCSE Maths trip In December, classes 11A1 and 11A2 got the chance to go to the University of London for a Mathematics in Action lecture. The trip included different speakers teaching us about branches of mathematics that we don t often study at GCSE and an entertaining way to look at Maths. It was a really fun experience for all of us because it made us look at Maths in a different way whilst exercising our grey matter. The host, Matt Parker (regular contributor to BBC Radio 4 s Infinite Monkey Cage, Mathematician, stand-up comedian and writer for The Guardian), introduced each of the speakers and kept us entertained between each one. Our first speaker was James Grimes, who visited us at KES a few years ago. His lecture was called The Secret World of Codes and Code breaking. He told us about the history of codes used in war and how these codes were cracked. He showed us how an original Enigma Machine (owned by Simon Singh) worked, how three cogs changed the code each time a button was pressed, and explained some of the work Alan Turing did at Bletchley Park in order to break German codes. It was interesting to see how these codes were generated and how they were solved and some of the mathematics involved. The second speaker was Matt Pritchard on Facebook Friends to Postman Pat: Understanding our Connected World. This topic was linked to the work on Decision Theory and Networks that we have been studying in our Enrichment Club. He linked mathematics to Facebook and social networking, showing how we are connected to many different people without realising it. He also introduced us to the Königsberg Bridge Problem which was a very old puzzle and was not like any of the mathematics we had studied before. After our break, our next speaker was Hugh Hunt, an Engineering Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge (who starred in the Ch4 film Dambusters: Building the Bouncing Bomb ). He was a very enthusiastic man who seemed to like jumping on and off the stage and throwing boomerangs at the audience. He demonstrated to us why spinning objects act the way they do (angular momentum), why a boomerang comes back to you, how a cat always lands on its feet and the effect of spin on bouncing a ball. He had many props including a spinning top, a bicycle wheel, a variety of bouncing balls, a gyroscope and a platform that spun when standing on it. There was also some student participation and we learnt about gyroscopes and how to steer yourself in space. This proved to be a great introduction to Mechanics, a topic we have not studied yet, but will learn about in A Level Mathematics. Our fourth speaker, Katie Steckles, told us all about solving numerical whole number problems involving factors and primes using maths. Her speech was very integeresting (in her words) and will help us with A level Mathematics. Finally, Matt Parker gave examples of Maths in The Simpsons which we had to spot when watching a clip. We didn t realise that so many of the producers and writers of The Simpsons had Maths or Physics degrees. There are lots of hidden fun maths jokes in The Simpsons we had not noticed before. Overall, it was a fun day out and we found out interesting facts we didn t know before. It gave us an insight into branches of mathematics that we didn t know existed and provided challenging problems and questions for all. Article written by Jade in Year 11 7

8 FACULTY FOCUS ON Physical education The Physical Education Faculty offers a broad range of activities and courses to KES students in KS3, KS4 and KS5. We aim to provide a structure where students can fulfil their potential in an engaging environment which allows maximum learning to take place. As well as taking part as a performer students are also provided with opportunities to coach as well as act as an official. All students are given two hours a week of PE in KS3 and KS4 where they follow activities in line with the National Curriculum. As well as this students can opt for the very popular and successful GCSE Physical Education course where students will learn about the theoretical aspects of Physical Education as well as being assessed in four practical activities. Examination grades are consistently outstanding and last year 92% of students achieved A*- C grades with 39% obtaining an A* or an A grade. In KS5 students can opt to study A Level Physical Education or a Btec in Sport, with both preparing students for a place at university or hopeful future employment. Again students achieve outstandingly well in these subjects with a 100% pass rate at both A Level PE and in Btec Sport. All students obtained Distinctions in Btec Sport which equates to an A grade at A Level. Facilities for sport at KES are excellent and aid learning opportunities. Extra Curricular News The Faculty also provides an extensive extra curricular programme of activities with basketball, cross country, swimming, badminton and table tennis prominent in January and February. At the beginning of January the District Swimming heats for boys and girls were held with all students qualifying for the finals to be held at Clements Hall at the end of January. Basketball fixtures are taking place for all years at present. The Year 7 tournament took place recently at Fitzwimarc School where the students performed admirably, finishing 2nd overall, losing just one game, and winning all the others. A group of students have been taking part in Table Tennis on Thursdays after school and were entered into the district championships. It was a strong squad of Year 7, 8, 9 and 10 students but it was a pity that more schools did not enter as the only competition they got was from the Deanes School. KES also entered the Essex Football Cup girls U14 football cup for the first time in a number of years and they went through to the third round before losing to a strong Marshalls Park side from Romford. Hopefully, their experience will help the girls and they continue to progress as individuals and as a team. Badminton A number of students recently went to Deanes School for the 1st round of the National Cup Badminton Tournament. We entered 3 teams into the competition; senior girls, senior boys and junior boys. Although we did not progress to the East of England round the students all performed very well and were involved in close games against good players. Special mention must go to Jordan Faulkner-Walpole in Year 9 who was unbeaten in his singles matches. Well done to all students involved: Jodie Billet, Samantha Smith, Kelly Castle, Louise Bunce, Jordan Faulkner-Walpole, Mathew Smith, Connor Atay, Tom Baker, Rhys House, Owen Butler, Will Simpson and Jack Seaton. Cross Country Before Christmas about eighty students entered the District Championships held at Gloucester Park. All students performed very well finishing 3rd overall. The junior boys and girls squad also entered the National Cross Country Championship finishing 2nd in South East Essex and qualifying for the South East of England regional round. Again the students performed well but came up against a number of club runners. The school finished a credible 7th overall though. Craig Simpson, Director of Physical Education 8
