Early years: Leading to excellence (UK Report)
http://www.ofsted.gov.uk/leadingtoexcellence Early years: Leading to excellence Leading to excellence is in two parts. Part one reviews childcare and early years provision at the end of our three-year cycle of inspections. It shows that overall providers are doing well and are getting better. However, it also shows that there is still much provision that is not good enough and there is too much variation in quality across the sector. Weaknesses include occasions where procedures for checking adults’ suitability are inadequate. Part two describes good practice in how providers organise, lead and manage their settings to promote positive experiences and outcomes for children. It shows that the best settings place children at the centre of their work, and have adults with a robust approach to keeping children safe. The report is the final of a series of three on how providers are promoting the Every Child Matters outcomes for children. |

New Century School House (Primary)
http://landmark-project.com/ncsh/epg.php New Century School House (Primary) The New Century School House is essentially three 1950s style school buildings that have been totally gutted of all relics of industrial age education. The rooms are bare and without purpose. Educators are invited to adopt and repurpose individual rooms in either of the three buildings (Elementary, Middle, or High Schools) as learning spaces where students can learn in ways that are more relevant to a technology and information rich world. |
