Future of The Crest Academies: Consultation on Proposals 2790_Crest Academy_Consultation Leaflet_vis10.indd 1
21/11/2013 11:01
Welcome John Hall – Chair of Governors Over the past four years, although part of the same family, The Crest Boys’ and The Girls’ Academies and their joint Sixth Form have operated as separate academies. Our new building, together with state of the art resources, creates a great opportunity to bring the Crest family closer together and to build better links with the community. As you will know, we have already made a number of changes to the way that Crest operates. There is strong leadership in place led by the Executive Principal, Phil Hearne, and his senior team. Under this leadership we have made – and are making – major changes to teaching and learning to ensure that local children get the best education possible. As part of this, we will continue to offer single sex education up to age 16, but under a combined Academy. Girls and boys will continue to be taught separately in single sex classrooms, but they will benefit from a more joined-up approach to teaching and learning. This will ensure that we have a consistently excellent approach across the new combined Academy. We have already combined the Girls’ and Boys’ teaching staff into one body. This has already increased the teaching and leadership resources available. Building on this foundation, our commitment to you is to establish Crest as the first choice for single sex education in the area.
A Combined Academy: The Crest Academies Our new building and the recent staffing changes present an exciting opportunity to improve the learning experience and facilities for our students and the wider community. As such, we are proposing to bring together Crest Boys and Crest Girls to become a new combined entity: The Crest Academies. As part of this we want to hear your views and ideas. We are proposing to: n Bring together The Crest Girls’ Academy and The Crest Boys’ Academy into one building as The Crest Academies. n Retain single gender teaching from year 7 to year 11. n Combine the academies legally, to achieve better value for money and more effective use of resources. n Improve learning environments. n Introduce advanced ICT classroom technology. n Offer a wider range of resources in sport, dance and drama studios. If approved by the Department for Education, these changes will be in place from 1st September 2014.
As part of this proposed move to a combined Academy, we are keen to hear from parents and the local community, and will be hosting meetings over the next [few weeks/months] to share our thinking in more detail and to answer any questions. Meeting times will be publicised on our website and [etc...]
