Brunel University London

In 2016, Brunel celebrated 50 years as a university. However, our history can be traced back much further to 1798 through our predecessor colleges of Borough Road College, Maria Grey College, Shoreditch College and the West London Institute of Higher Education and as well as through Acton Technical College then Brunel College. Our rise since 1966 has been impressive and our reputation grows year on year. Now a university of 12,746 students – 3,309 students engaged in postgraduate and research study – our special approach is to combine academic rigour with the practical, entrepreneurial and imaginative approach pioneered by Isambard Kingdom Brunel. The decision to be named after Isambard Kingdom Brunel was taken after much discussion. Rather than name the new College after a location, Dr Topping, the first Vice Chancellor of Brunel University (and former Principal of Brunel College) pleaded that the name should be a well-known person preferably an engineer or scientist associated in some way with Middlesex or Acton. Agreement was reached in March 1957 that person would be Isambard Kingdom Brunel. Isambard Kingdom Brunel (1806-1859) is one of the great British engineers of the 19th century. Isambard was born into an industrious family in 1806, with his mother Sophia Kingdom working for the Royal Navy and father Marc Brunel being a prominent French engineer. Isambard took on formal training as an engineer and went on to build twenty-five railways lines, over a hundred bridges, including five suspension bridges, eight pier and dock systems, three ships and a pre-fabricated army field hospital.To add to this he was a keen social engineer, building housing estates, churches and hospitals.

Barking Abbey School, A Specialist Sports And Humanities College

Barking

BARKING ABBEY SCHOOL IS A VERY LARGE SCHOOL ON TWO CAMPUSES IN EAST LONDON THAT SERVES THE BOROUGHS OF BARKING & DAGENHAM AND REDBRIDGE. We are a non-selective, comprehensive twelve form entry school with a proud tradition of academic and sporting success. The school is very popular in the local community for both Year 7 and sixth form admissions and is heavily oversubscribed. Barking Abbey School was founded in 1922 as one of the first co-educational grammar schools in England at the site in Longbridge Road. At the time, it was situated in a largely rural area, with fields and farmland close by. Gradually, as Barking began to expand as a residential centre, the school became the focal point for the community with an educational provision of national standing. In 1970, Barking Abbey Grammar School was merged with Park Modern School to form the Barking Abbey School we know today. Many traditions of the old schools remain, but with important developments to enable the school and its pupils to be fully prepared to meet the challenges and opportunities of life in the twenty-first century. One thing remains central, however: we are an outstanding success. Barking Abbey school has a very large Sixth Form with approximately 450 students. As a result of this we are able to offer a large range of courses to our 16-19 year olds. We are proud of the fact that we are a multi-cultural community and we seek to celebrate our diversity in as many ways as possible. Tolerance of, respect for, and understanding of others are vital aspects of preparing young people for adult life. We want all of our pupils to Belong, Aspire, Succeed.

About Ever since we opened our doors in 1993 we’ve provided cost-effective recruitment solutions for schools and helped teachers find their dream jobs. We love what we do but more importantly, we’re good at it, which is why 24 years down the line and 11 offices later, we’re still going strong. We’ve placed thousands of education professionals in permanent and temporary positions nationwide into our partner schools. We also have the Pertemps Network Group to thank for our success, as due to our collaboration and their many years of experience, we have been able to follow suit and offer high quality recruitment solutions to the wider education sector. We’re all about education and we pride ourselves on our amazing family of specialist consultants who share the same passion. In fact, many of our consultants come from teaching backgrounds, so you can trust that they know exactly what they’re doing, as they know first-hand about the demands of working in education. That is why support, advice and a friendly ear is guaranteed when you choose us. We’re unlike any other agency - we really don’t care for targets and we certainly won’t treat you like a number. We get to know each and every one of our teachers and schools individually, as not only do we value loyalty and long-lasting relationships above all but by getting to know you it helps us do our job to an even higher standard, meaning everyone is happy! If it’s not teaching staff that you’re after, we can provide non-teaching candidates to schools including but not limited to finance, office admin and support. All educators we supply have surpassed safeguarding standards in line with APSCo’s Compliance+ standard since 2013. We have many alternative establishments for our teachers too, so if you don’t fancy working in a mainstream school, we have nurseries, colleges and other educational establishments across the UK waiting for you.
