On behalf of our students, staff and governors, I am delighted to welcome you to North Oxfordshire Academy. We are a successful, oversubscribed 11-18 academy located in Banbury, Oxfordshire. North Oxfordshire Academy is an inclusive, friendly and diverse community with an ethos of high aspirations, high expectations and high achievement. We are proud to be part of United Learning, a group of secondary, primary and independent schools, whose motto is: ‘The best in everyone’ - a philosophy to which we wholeheartedly subscribe. Through a culture of nurture, support and mutual respect, we seek to challenge our students by encouraging them to take risks; to explore new ideas and to acknowledge that making mistakes is essential for learning. We focus on helping our students to become resilient learners and to develop the character and skills that prepare them for the future. During their time at North Oxfordshire Academy, our students learn to become confident, articulate, independent and resourceful young people; they develop the skills and qualities to enjoy successful and rewarding personal and working lives in an everchanging local, national and global landscape. Our students experience a broad and balanced curriculum focusing on academic excellence and education with character. In addition, they participate in an exciting range of extracurricular and sporting activities which enables them to explore and develop their talents and wider interests. We expect our students to work hard; to be kind and respectful to others and to strive to be the best version of themselves. Whether you are a potential student, parent or future employee, we hope our website provides you with useful information about North Oxfordshire Academy. If you would like to know more, or would like to visit us to see our school in action during the school day, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Harrow Courses

Services for schools The Government’s expectation is that schools and colleges will work towards the Gatsby benchmarks. There are 8 benchmarks which constitute ‘good practice’ in career guidance for schools and colleges, they are: A stable careers programme Learning from career and labour market information Addressing the needs of each student Linking curriculum learning to careers Encounters with employers and employees Experiences of workplaces Encounters with further and higher education Personal guidance. Harrow College is now offering a range of new services to local schools for students in Years 10, 11, 12 and 13. The College offer can be linked to the Gatsby Benchmarks as well as support the school to meet their commitment to the Technical and Further Education Bill's amendment passed in the House of Lords in February 2017 by Lord Baker. We provide support to learners to progress from schools onto further education and apprenticeships. We encourage awareness of the many career opportunities available to young people and the vocational or academic qualification route they may need to take to succeed in their chosen career. College staff can assist and work with schools to: • Provide vocational advice and guidance • Collaborate during Careers Events and Parents’ Evenings • Arrange visits to college for individual learners and/or groups • Organise workshops at the College or in your school for specific subject areas allowing students to get ‘hands on’ experience. Parents Evening and Careers fair - Our staff can attend Parents Evenings, Careers Fairs and Year 11 options evenings in your school, to offer advice and guidance to learners, their parents and guardians. Tour for learners and teachers - Our staff are on hand to offer bespoke tours of the College to your staff, learners and their parents. This often helps learners to get a feel for how studying in a college might be like and we will help you advise your learners appropriately. Taster days - We hold taster days throughout the year to engage learners. Taster days can be a half or full day depending on your school timetable and requirements, and most subject areas are available. Presentation and talks – Our industry experienced staff can come into your school and deliver informative presentations to teachers, learners and their parents/ guardians. We understand time can be an issue so we can also deliver presentations at a time and place that suits you. CPD for teachers - Throughout the year our staff host a range of events for teachers and careers advisers. These events are a great opportunity to visit the College, view facilities and hear from vocational teaching teams on the options available to young people. Our Senior Leadership Team is also available to deliver sessions on new policy developments in education, such as T Levels, Institute of Technology, SEND etc. If you would like further information on how Harrow College can work with your school, please contact Lee Janaway via email on ljanaway@hcuc.harrow.ac.uk
