Welcome to Al-Zahra School; a bastion of academic striving and spiritual serenity for the young ladies under its banner. Named after Sayyeda Fatima Al-Zahra (p.b.u.h), the daughter of the Holy Prophet (p.b.u.h); our vision is to pursue excellence in education, unwavering God consciousness and service to the community. The teachings of the Qur’an and the Ahlulbayt are integral to our ethos and encapsulate school life. We provide a broad curriculum that is ambitious and stimulating, along with a wide range of extra-curricular and enrichment opportunities. Through all endeavours, our school nurtures dynamism and determination through the troughs and peaks of academic life. With a sense of being part of a wider family, we nurture well-rounded, cultivated and compassionate individuals who respect the differences and human dignity of others. Our girls are driven by self-motivation, self-discipline and a common purpose. Through these years with us, they become secure in their sense of pride and belonging, buffered by a friendly and supportive school community. They leave Al-Zahra full of integrity and ambition, empowered to make waves in the world they enter. Al-Zahra welcomes visitors to personally experience the buzz and energy of the school; to interact with our personable pupils who constitute the very essence of our establishment. It is our aim to enable our girls with the most holistic experience of education, in which they may thrive and emerge as conscientious citizens of a modern, multi-facetted Britain.

Bishop Stopford School

I would like to extend a warm welcome as you visit our website today. Bishop Stopford School is a vibrant, ethical place to learn. As our Outstanding SIAMS inspection report states, ‘Five deeply embedded, long-established, Christian values, which are relevant to everyone, create an ethos in which harmonious and respectful relationships enable everyone to flourish.’ (2018) Our aim therefore is simple: to provide the highest quality education for every student. We nurture to flourish and challenge to grow. Individuals are supported to fulfil their unique potential, enabling them to face the future with confidence. Our exam results certainly bear testimony to us achieving that aim - in the arts, sciences, sport, humanities and technology subjects. But a great education is about so much more than exam performance – and Our Intent details what we believe is equally important. We develop character, moral strength, emotional resilience and self-confidence, as well as engendering that sheer love of learning for its own sake. Our Intent guides teaching and learning, and an extensive extracurricular programme, where we pay significant attention to cultivating these vital attributes too. Education is, of course, a partnership. We understand that effective communication between home and school is essential, and parents are always welcome to contact us to seek advice or reassurance. I hope that you enjoy looking at our website, and I would encourage you to visit us at our ‘Open’ events to discover what makes Bishop Stopford School unique.

Dr. Amanda Bowen Yoga & Retreats

Hi there, I am a yoga teacher with a PhD in Metaphysical Science, a certified holistic life coach and spiritual counsellor, an organiser of wellness retreats, a teacher on the global meditation app, Insight Timer and creator of Lovable Yoga Clothing As well as my organic clothing line, I’m proud to be an Independent Consultant for the amazing certified B corporation, Arbonne. Their Mind.Body.Skin products provide clean vegan, cruelty free skincare, beauty and nutrition that has made my life so much easier and my skin clearer! Conscious living is ingrained into me now and allows me to support companies that are not harming the planet and its inhabitants. There is no Planet B! Being diagnosed with chronic fatigue syndrome then post traumatic stress disorder, depression and anxiety fifteen years ago left me unable to function. I led myself down the holistic route to get my health and, ultimately, my life back, and along the way stepped into my role as a teacher and wellness guide centred around yin yoga. I discovered I have a skill in teaching and happiness in sharing my practice with others. This powerful yet very human journey has so far involved nearly six hundred hours of Yoga Alliance teacher training, including an advanced yin yoga teacher training course and yoga for trauma recovery. My intensive studies have included hatha, ashtanga, vinyasa, yin, yin yang and aerial yoga. Of these, yin yoga was the completing piece of the jigsaw for me. Yin is where my healing finds its natural flow. While I was being treated for depression many years ago, I developed a fascination with how the human brain works and the connection between the mind and body. What my consultant shared with me was incredible, and I needed to know more. This drive to understand more led me into gaining my PhD in Metaphysical Science. The fact that I had gone from being unable to function, to completing a PhD, was beyond any belief I had about myself. I never imagined I would be able to use my brain, and heal my body and mind, to the extent that I have. The intensity and depth of my yoga training and academic studying and the way in which they come together in my sessions has created my unique style of teaching yin yoga. Postures, nurture and calm are combined with the brain science behind the practice and meticulous preparation, bringing wisdom and learning from many different sources into each session. Dr. Amanda Bowen Yoga Instructor Dr. Amanda Bowen Yoga Teacher Counselling on stress management and how to mitigate against the devastating long-term effects it can have is woven into my teaching. I bring healing stillness into people’s lives in order for them to better manage their challenges and find – and enjoy – the balance that is so often missing. My inspirational and educational yoga classes, workshops and worldwide transformational retreats are for everyone.

Hi! I’m Nicola and I am the founder of Little Love Harts. I am a certified Blossom and Berry Baby Massage and Baby Yoga instructor and a qualified Hypnobirthing Instructor with The Calm Birth School I also hold as BSc in Social Science and have always been interested in people, other cultures, why they do things & how they benefit both families and society. I am married to Andy have a little boy Hugo R Hart our very own HRH – he is both my why and how for becoming a Baby Massage, Baby Yoga and Hypnobirthing instructor. I loved Hypnobirthing and the tools it taught me to prepare for a safe, empowering and positive birth. Despite our birth not going to what we had ‘planned’ or rather what my first preference was, utilising the tools and techniques my husband and I had learnt through Hypnobirthing we were able to have the best birth ever!! Like many I found the first few months of motherhood very overwhelming – my world flipped 180 in both an amazing and positive way – which obviously I am so grateful for, but also in a scary and at times, lonely way. In having my son I both lost myself and found myself all at the same time… My aim with Little Love Harts is to give the tool for safe, empowered and calm births and to teach parents that they are enough for their baby, yes read the books, yes seek advice from family, friends and when needed professionals – but always know that you are all your baby needs. At Little Love Harts I the importance of love and connection through nurturing touch, massage & yoga to help babies and children reach their full potential & make the world abetter place. My mission is to grow babies with love, touch, responsive care and positive interaction. Little Love Harts aim is to create nurturing experiences for all parents and babies to deepen their connection and confidence. I want to make sure that parents feel nurtured and in turn get the space and tool to nurture their babies in a loving and supportive environment. My classes are an inclusive, accepting, welcoming and safe space for all. I am committed to promoting the wellbeing of parents and babies through the provision of inclusive, educational and supportive classes and services. I will welcome you with a smile, listen to yours and baby’s needs, hold space for you when you need it and give you the tools to bond, soothe, relax and aid your baby’s development – be this at the Little Love Harts studio or via Zoom. I also provide several free services in the Colchester area, to help parents connect such as coffee and catch ups, buggy walks and online community to share and exchange ideas. I can’t wait to meet you, your birth partner and if they are already earth-side your baby! I will share the tools I have learnt through Hypnobirthing, Baby Massage and Baby Yoga to connect with your baby and teach them love, nurture and some amazing techniques to aid both their mental and physical development!

Ofsteds new judgement are personal development will focus on how you promote children’s personal development. Inspectors will use their professional judgement to consider the effectiveness of your provision on children’s all-round development. So… How do you: 👉 Enable children to be increasingly independent? 👉 Prepare children for life in modern Britain through the development in their understanding of fundamental British Values? 👉 Enable children to form secure attachments? 👉 Foster and nurture a sense of belonging? 👉 Expand children’s vocabulary to enable them to vocalise or communicate their thoughts and ideas? 👉 Create opportunities for children to manage risk? 👉 Encourage children to reflect on their differences and understand what makes them unique? The New Education Inspection Framework places a greater emphasis on care practices and children’s independence within this area. 👏 Also within personal development comes the importance of sharing information with children around the dangers of the internet and how children can keep themselves safe.👏 Also Ofsted’s phrase ‘prepare children for life in modern Britain’ brings into play the importance of British values. The key pillars of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect for those of different faiths, needs to be evident within your practice. Leaders must ensure that the approach taken has meaning and relevance for children of different ages and is not just seen as a tick box exercise. If you would like any further information / ideas of how to embed personal development into your practice without more paperwork please contact Topey
