St Paul's School For Girls

st paul's school for girls

Birmingham

St Paul’s is a Catholic school for girls situated in the Archdiocese and within the city of Birmingham. It exists primarily to assist Catholic parents in giving their children a good Catholic education so that they may lead fulfilled lives, which promote the common good of society. By Catholic education we mean that every aspect of school life is permeated by the belief of the school community: in a loving God, as revealed by Jesus Christ that all persons are sacred because each is made in the image of God and therefore deserving of respect that all creation is an expression of the goodness and love of God revealed through it. that all are entitled in justice, to be given the opportunity to develop fully as persons and thus have equality of access to the Curriculum. As the school shares in the Church’s mission to educate and nurture in the faith, prayer, the Eucharist and other liturgical celebrations have a central role in the life and work of the school community.

King Edward Vi Camp Hill School For Boys

Birmingham

Welcome to King Edward VI Camp Hill School for Boys. We are a caring community where everyone can do and be their best. We strive to support our students through the ups and downs of life so that they can lead a happy and fulfilled life as much as possible. We pride ourselves in our breath-taking array of opportunities, both in our traditional academic curriculum and across our extra-curricular and enrichment programme. The original school opened at Camp Hill, close to the city centre, in 1883 and moved to Kings Heath in 1956 because the original site was proving too small for a growing school. Camp Hill is a warm and welcoming community – where expectations and standards are high, and where a well-rounded education helps to prepare boys for the challenges and opportunities of adult life. Camp Hill Boys shares a beautiful campus with our sister school and can genuinely claim to be one of the highest achieving and best equipped schools in the country.

Heath Park

The government states that there are 5 elements to British Values: Democracy The rule of law Individual liberty Mutual respect Tolerance of those of different faiths and beliefs Heath Park’s motto of ‘Every Pupil, Always In Focus’ actively promotes these values and the life of the school demonstrates the strength of our community. Democracy The principles of democracy, of having a voice and a say in how institutions are run, are explored within the curriculum and across the school. From this we aim to foster an appreciation of the democratic process and allow students to actively engage in decision making so that they are ready to do this in the wider society when the time comes. Citizenship, PSHE and History in particular consider the nature of democracy and in doing so explain alternative systems, their strengths and weaknesses, and the development of democracy today, for example in proportional representation. Within lessons too, we look to provide opportunities for students to make decisions about their learning based on their prior learning and need, identifying an outcome and working towards it in a way which works for them.

Young Parent Talks

young parent talks

London

Che, founder of Young Parent Talks, is a young mum from Birmingham who has been sharing her story in schools, colleges and youth clubs for almost 4 years. After her life was disrupted by teenage pregnancy and an intense abusive relationship, Che was left with very little ambition and aim in life. She ended up having a baby at 19 thinking this would be 'the easy option'. She had a reality check when she realised it wasn't as easy as she'd thought and really struggled to step up to the responsibility of having a child. After working hard to get her life together whilst also raising her child, she started working for charity, Straight Talking. This is where Che found her passion, teaching young people the realities of being a young parent. In 2022, Che set up 'Young Parent Talks', delivering sessions and assembly's in school's, teaching pupils what it really means to become a teenage parent and how it changes your life, by sharing her story. For information on how you can have Che come into your school, please feel free get in touch. Please see below what's included in our 'Teenage Pregnancy Workshop', the learning objectives and how it links with the National Curriculum.

After several years of experience teaching EAL to all age groups, she began teaching IB Diploma Programme English and ToK in 2002. Since then she has also taken on the roles of examiner and workshop leader for the IB. Her perspective has been shaped and informed by her varied experience and her teaching in very different and diverse contexts in Greece, Germany, the UK and China. Additionally, her experience from working at residential schools has enhanced her awareness of the impact of holistic education on teaching and lifelong learning. Her understanding of the challenges of the interaction of national curricula with the IB Diploma Programme as well using English as the medium of instruction in international schools have become an integral feature of her professional agenda. The administrative positions she has also held -IB Diploma Programme Coordinator and Head of English- inform not only her understanding of contextual and pedagogical implications for the teaching of English for both students and teachers, but also the impact of secondary education on raising internationally-minded global citizens who will continue to learn, earn and contribute to a sustainable future for all. Anna has a passion for reading, for learning that challenges expectations and curricula, for asking searching questions, as well as for strategic thinking for educational institutions. She is the author of several academic papers in Theoretical Linguistics and her most recent writing project being the Oxford University Press English A: Literature Course Companion for the new IB Diploma Programme curriculum (first teaching 2019). Between workshops, consultancies, writing and assignments, she enjoys reading, blogging and spending time with her children, her friends and her former students, wherever they are.
