BEDE’S SCHOOL At. St. Bede’s, Religious Education is rightly at the heart of the curriculum. At Key Stage 3 RE has 10% of curriculum time in line with the recommendation of the Catholic Bishops of England and Wales. St. Bede’s follows the ICONS programme at Key Stage 3. Icons was written by a team of teachers in collaboration with the Bishop’s Conference in order to meet the particular needs of the Catholic school. At Key Stage 4 all students are prepared for a GCSE in Religious Studies following the Edexcel syllabus options on Catholic Beliefs and Philosophy. Acts of Worship AIMS To give thanks and praise to God. To deepen students’ awareness of the Liturgical Year. To develop the prayer life of St. Bede’s School. To promote spiritual and moral values in accordance with the teaching of the Catholic Church. To celebrate cultural diversity in the form of music, drama and reflection. POLICY There is a daily Act of Worship each morning. This is either based in the tutor room led by the learning tutor or in the main hall organised by the House Leader. These acts of worship can be led by either students, members of staff or outside visitors. The Chaplaincy team regularly lead Acts of Worship under the leadership of the Liturgy Coordinator. There is a prayer/reflection book available for each tutor and tutor group. The school community gathers together at the following occasions in order to celebrate a liturgy. Beginning of the School Year Advent/Christmas Easter Feast of St. Bede End of Academic Year All students have the opportunity of attending Mass at St. Bernadette’s Church on Holy Days of Obligation. Class/year Masses take place throughout the year. SACRAMENT OF RECONCILIATION The priests of the Deanery come into school to celebrate this Sacrament during Advent and Lent. All students have the opportunity to attend. CHAPLAINCY TEAM This is made up of students and staff who plan and organize Acts of Worship. The Chapel is open for guided prayer and reflection and the Chaplaincy Team are responsible for delivering this. They are also involved in the music and singing content in the Daily Acts of Worship and School Liturgies. SchoolProspectus2013-14 Page - 7 - ETHOS AND VALUES The holistic approach to Religious Education is reflected in the care the school takes of its students. The school’s belief is that pastoral care implies a caring for all students by all teachers at all times. There are specific instances where particular guidance or counselling is needed and to match this, particular teachers have responsibility for groups of students. In the first instance the Learning Tutor has prime responsibility with recourse to the House Leader and to other staff as appropriate. The school encourages close co-operation with parents who are asked to make contact if they feel that their child has a problem at the school. It is to the House Leader that initial approaches must be made. For its part, the school will contact parents over matters of concern as soon as such contact seems to be desirable. It is in the best interests of all to do this early before matters assume too large a significance. PASTORAL CARE Great investment is placed upon Pastoral Care within the school community. At St. Bede’s we firmly believe that a happy child is a learning child. Learning Tutors closely monitor the academic and social welfare on a day to day basis with House Leaders in support. Close liaison with parents is welcomed. Outside agencies are consulted as necessary and an in school social worker from Faith in Families is available one day a week. SCHOOL DISCIPLINE School discipline is a natural part of the care of students and this operates within a framework afforded by the Gospel message. Love of thy neighbour forms the bedrock of our Code of Conduct and youngsters who wish to operate outside this code will be reprimanded. Sanctions used in school include detentions and extra work. Detentions may be held after school but 24 hours notice will be given in that event. It is anticipated that parents who choose to send their children to St. Bede’s will assist the school when it is appropriate for sanctions to be given. The most serious sanctions which can be given is exclusion and it should be noted that violence towards others is not acceptable and offenders will usually be excluded, either permanently or for a fixed period of time. VISITING ARRANGEMENTS Normal arrangements The school is committed to a policy of shared responsibility with parents. Parents are encouraged to visit the school to discuss their child’s education. In the first instance parents should normally contact their youngster’s House Leader. These are as follows:Allen House Leader: Manning House Leader: Newman House Leader: Vaughan House Leader: Wiseman House Leader: Mr Yates Miss Menzies Mr Yates/Mrs Edington Mr Chapman Miss Karlsberg Please note that it is always advisable to make an appointment with any member of staff so as to identify in advance the nature of the matter for discussion. This will ensure that journeys are not wasted because of the unavailability of a teacher or relevant information. Information to Parents and Consultation Evenings Parents are informed on the progress their child is making at least on a termly basis either by report or through a consultation evening. All year groups have one evening set aside when parents are invited into school to discuss their child’s progress. This takes place with their child’s Learning SchoolProspectus2013-14 Page - 8 - Tutor and students are invited to participate in these discussions. In addition there is a ‘surgery’ type evening for each year group when parents are able to make appointments with their child’s subject teachers if they so wish. In Year 7 parents are invited to a meeting in October with their child’s House Leader to discuss how well their child is setting into Secondary school. Parents are also invited into school on an ad-hoc basis, to receive information about educational visits, career opportunities, sex education etc. Intake arrangements (at 11+) The school has an Open Evening in the Autumn Term. In 2013 this is on Wednesday 18th September 4.30-7.00pm. Open Morning takes place on Thursday 19th September. Tours 9.00am and 9.45am. Otherwise the school operates an ‘open door’ policy and prospective parents and students are welcome by arrangement to tour the school during a working day or at other times, as desired. Students are invited to the school in the Summer Term for a day’s induction. The purpose of this visit is to facilitate the transfer process and, whilst at St. Bede’s on that day, the youngster will spend time with their House Leader and take part in a mini sports day specially organised for Year 6 students. There are also visits for Year 5 students from our partner primary schools. On this day students will sample lessons in, say, Technology, Art, Science, French and Music.

This will reduce the number of places available. 1) Baptised Catholic looked after children and Baptised Catholic previously looked after children (see note 1). 2) Baptised Catholic children (see note 2) (baptism certificates must be attached with application/supplementary forms). 3) Other looked after children and other previously looked after children (see note 1). 4) Children who attend an associated Catholic primary school: St Augustine Webster (Scunthorpe), St Bernadette’s (Ashby), St Norbert’s (Crowle) and St Mary’s (Brigg). 5) Children with a brother or sister at the school at the time of proposed admission (see note 4). 6) Baptised (or dedicated) children who are worshipping members of other Christian denominations belonging to Churches Together in England and Wales – (see note 3). (Baptism certificates / Dedication certificates must be attached to the application / supplementary forms). 7) Other children. Tie Breakers If any category is oversubscribed priority, after sibling for categories 1 - 4, will be given to pupils whose home address is nearest to the school. This will be determined by measuring the distance using a geographical information system (GIS) from the pupil’s home (see note 5) to the main school gate. The distance will be measured by the Local Authority and the data will be supplied to the Governors. In a very few cases, it may not be possible to decide between the applications of those pupils who are the final qualifiers for a place (eg children who live at the same address or have the same distance measurement). In this exceptional situation, if there is no other way of separating the applications then the governors will admit the additional child/children above the planned admissions number. Appeals If a child is not allocated a place, parents/carers have a statutory right to appeal. This should be done by writing to the Clerk to Governors care of the school no later than four weeks (twenty school days) after the offer letter has been received from the Local Authority. The appeal will be arranged on behalf of the governors by the Catholic Schools Appeals Service and will be heard by an independent panel. The decision of the panel will be binding on the school. 3 SchoolProspectus2013-14 Page - 19 - Applications during the school year Details of the application process are available from the school and from the Local Authority. Once an application has been made, it will be passed to the Admissions Committee of the Governing Body for consideration. If the respective year group total is below the published admission number for that year group, the child will be offered a place. If the admission number has been reached, the child will be only offered a place if the Committee decides that the education of pupils in that year group will not be detrimentally affected by the admission of an extra pupil. If your child is not allocated a place, you have a statutory right to appeal (see ‘Appeals’ above). Your appeal should be lodged within four weeks (twenty school days) after the date of your refusal letter. Waiting Lists 1. If the academy is over-subscribed a waiting list will be established. 2. Pupils will automatically be put on the waiting list where they have not been made an offer of a place and where the academy is ranked higher than the school or academy at which an offer has been made. 3. Pupils will not automatically be placed on the waiting list if the academy is ranked lower than the school or academy where they have been offered a place. 4. Places will be allocated in accordance with the published criteria. 5. The council will coordinate the waiting list for the academy. 6. As soon as places become available they will be filled from the waiting list. 7. If a parent is on a waiting list it will not affect the parent’s right of appeal against an unsuccessful application. 8. Children who are the subject of a directed place under the in year fair access protocol will take precedence over those on the waiting list. Withdrawing Offers of Places If the allocation of a place has been made on the basis of fraudulent or intentionally misleading information, the governors reserve the right to withdraw the place. 4 SchoolProspectus2013-14 Page - 20 - Definitions Note 1 – Definition of looked after children and previously looked after children A “looked after child” is a child who is: (a) in the care of a local authority, or (b) being provided with accommodation by a local authority in the exercise of their social services functions (see the definition in section 22(1) of the Children Act 1989) at the time of making an application to a school.
