Thank you for taking an interest in Community School School and for visiting our website. On behalf of governors, staff and children, it gives me great pleasure to welcome you to our website and to introduce you to our school. If you are visiting the website as an existing parent, we hope that you find the information you are looking for. If not, please call us or drop in at the school office to ask your questions. If you are member of the public and cannot find the information you are looking for, please contact us on 0161 998 4825. If you are visiting our website as a prospective or future parent, I appreciate that choosing a school for your child is an important and, at the same time, daunting task. You will want to satisfy yourself that our school can meet the needs of your child and your family. We hope that this website, combined with a personal visit, will help you decide if life at Northenden Community School is what you are seeking for your child and for you as parents. All schools are different. Each school has its own character, ethos and ways of doing things. This is what makes schools unique and able to offer different things to meet the needs of different families and learners. At Northenden, we believe that a real strength of our school is our ethos and the care, guidance and support that we offer to our children and families. Our school is a friendly place and we expect a high level of co-operation and consideration from all those involved in the lives of the children. We believe that we are a successful school but are always looking ahead to be even better.

Regents Park Community College

Southampton

As the Headteacher of this exceptional school, I am extremely proud of our ethos which is based on Respect, Pride, Creativity and Challenge. Staff and students embrace our values and as a result we are, arguably the most improved school on the South Coast. Regents Park is an over- subscribed mixed 11-16 school in the heart of Shirley, Southampton. The school is one of the oldest in Southampton steeped in history and over 100 years old. At Regents Park we provide a wonderful mix of tradition with a modern twist on teaching and learning ensuring that we provide a curriculum that generates interest, challenge and most importantly offers fun and excitement. Ofsted April 2018: ‘Teaching is characterised by highly effective planning, secure subject knowledge among the teachers, the use of a wide range of teaching strategies and the use of detailed information about pupils.’ Our pastoral care is second to none and we pride ourselves in the support and respect that emanates around the school with Student Leadership and Student Voice forming the platform on which the school continues to excel. Ofsted April 2018: ‘The strong messages about respect which flow from the top, and are modelled by all staff, are assimilated by pupils. Accordingly, they treat each other and adults with respect. Pupils’ behaviour around the school is exceptional. Their enthusiasm for learning is admirable, and their conduct in lessons is excellent.’ Our success is built on the commitment we have towards each and every student. As a small community school we understand the needs of each individual and data is used effectively to inspire each child to do their best.
