Dear Parents/Guardians<br />
The final <strong>Newsletter</strong> of this year follows our recent Ofsted<br />
visit and the overall judgement of “GOOD”.<br />
The two day inspection was probably less gruelling than<br />
previous ones for all manner of reasons.<br />
In the four categories the school was judged to be<br />
“Good”, though Team discussions over the two days<br />
indicated that the school was very close to the<br />
“Outstanding” category in both behaviour and leadership<br />
and management.<br />
Teaching and learning, to the credit of staff, was judged<br />
“good” with 76% of lessons falling into this or the<br />
outstanding benchmark. Pleasingly no lessons were<br />
judged inadequate.<br />
Particular note must be made of students who were<br />
“magnificent” with only one or two exceptions. It is very<br />
comforting as Head of the school to know that students<br />
will respond positively in support of their school.<br />
The Governors participation in the inspection was judged<br />
very favourably also and my thanks go to all members of<br />
the school community for their individual contributions<br />
to an inspection framework which is judging many<br />
schools very harshly indeed.<br />
The Year 6 numbers are currently at 190 with a number<br />
of appeals having proved successful. This number is of<br />
course higher than our admission number and reflects<br />
the growing popularity of the school.<br />
STAFFING<br />
We are fully staffed for September and the staffing profile<br />
is reducing in age. The proportion of staff costs in the<br />
budget has fallen to below 77% and we have six NQTs<br />
starting with us in September.<br />
Additional staffing in LSA’s and teaching staff in English,<br />
Maths and Science have been secured from the Pupil<br />
Premium funding.<br />
Staff leaving us at the end of the year include – Miss<br />
Pitman (Drama), Mrs Finney, Miss Parker, Mrs Johnson,<br />
Mrs Naum, Mr Parker and the ever youthful Mr Kirk who<br />
will be retiring after 27 years of teaching at <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s.<br />
We wish them all well and every happiness in the future.<br />
On the support staff, we also say a fond farewell to Miss<br />
Lithgow, Miss Kelland and Miss Siddiqui.<br />
This is the healthiest budget we have had in my time at<br />
Fox’s. Responsibility for this healthy resourcing lies with<br />
the additional Academies monies, the growth in student<br />
numbers and the scope of our Pupil Premium funding.<br />
Although I regarded the Academy development as<br />
politically naive, as Mrs Robertson our Business<br />
Manager, pointed out recently it was “the best decision<br />
we ever made”. She speaks clearly from the position of<br />
guardian of the purse!<br />
The Astroturf is now a financial reality at the present time<br />
and we are hoping to start the building process in the<br />
coming academic year. The future looks to be a positive<br />
one for the next phase of the schools’ development.<br />
Fingers crossed!!!!!<br />
I wish you all a very long and happy summer break.<br />
Paul Scutt, Headteacher<br />

DIGITAL LEADERS<br />
This year saw a new initiative launched within <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s - A<br />
Student Digital Leaders programme. Its main objective is to<br />
ensure that the most effective education technology is being<br />
embedded into all areas of school life, helping students to<br />
achieve their full potential and equipping them with skills for a<br />
21st Century and a global workspace. An application process<br />
was established and a number of students applied to become<br />
the schools’ first set of Student Digital Leaders. The quality<br />
within the applications was huge and we are now proud to have<br />
8 Student Digital Leaders (SDLs).<br />
Since starting their role the SDLs have enthusiastically begun<br />
a number of projects. They visited the Apple Store in Exeter to<br />
work with some Apple experts to produce a trailer to showcase<br />
their services to the school. The students thoroughly enjoyed<br />
this opportunity and produced some fabulous trailers. The<br />
SDLs have also carried out staff training sessions on the iPads<br />
and one SDL has even begun to develop an App for the school.<br />
Exciting times ahead!<br />
You can keep up to date with their work by following them on<br />
Twitter @FoxsDigiLeaders or subscribe to their channel on<br />
YouTube – Foxs DigiLeaders.<br />
Mr Ayres, Digital Leader Co-ordinator<br />
Duke of Edinburgh<br />
Students at <strong>Bishop</strong> <strong>Fox's</strong> have just completed their Duke of<br />
Edinburgh Bronze award, Students have been working on the<br />
scheme for 9 months, during this time they have undertaken 4<br />
challenges. Students have had to develop a personal skill,<br />
undertaken voluntary work in the community, participated<br />
and developed skills in a new sport or physical activity and taken<br />
part and planned an expedition. They have also had a<br />
practice expedition in the Blackdown hills, with the<br />
assessed expedition on Exmoor. Mr <strong>Summer</strong>ill, Assistant Head,<br />
said '<strong>School</strong> should provide more than just the prescribed<br />
curriculum, we believe students should be given a wider range<br />
of challenges and have the opportunity to give something back<br />
to the community, our D of E programme does just that'. Students<br />
complete the Bronze in Year 10 and the Silver award in Year 11.<br />

<strong>Bishop</strong> Fox Cycle for charity<br />
15 students and 2 members of staff took part in the 50/50 Rotary<br />
cycle ride on Sunday 9th June. The aim of the event was to have<br />
fun cycling but also to raise money for Rotary charities and the<br />
school charity of Macmillan cancer care. The students<br />
completed between 30 and 70 miles on the day, the event was<br />
split into 3 different routes which, if all cycled accounted for 57<br />
miles, some students made a few extra detours. The majority of<br />
students completed over 45 miles with 6 students completing<br />
all 3 routes. Miss Smith took part but unfortunately crashed<br />
during her ride, but still got back on and completed!!<br />
Mr <strong>Summer</strong>ill also took part, he said 'It is great to see so many<br />
students participating, we will aim for 25 students next year!!'.<br />
Liam Rabjohns completed all 3 routes and said 'I am really proud<br />
of myself, I hoped I could complete the 3 routes but really<br />
pleased that I did'.<br />
Student Catering Team<br />
Miss Fraser-Roe has formed a Student Catering Team this term<br />
with some of her willing Year 10 GCSE Food Technology students.<br />
They have already successfully helped cater and serve<br />
refreshments at the <strong>Summer</strong> Concert and Sports Day, making 100<br />
cupcakes and cream teas. Next year they hope to continue to<br />
develop their skills as a team helping support new events on the<br />
school calender.<br />
TLP Choir<br />
<strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s has led the development on a Taunton Learning<br />
Partnership (TLP) choir, consisting of 6 Primary schools and 15<br />
<strong>Bishop</strong> <strong>Fox's</strong> students. The Choir gives the chance for the<br />
Primary schools to work with Miss Wride and Mr Thomas the<br />
singing teacher to develop higher level music skills. The choir<br />
will perform twice this term at <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s leading to a final<br />
performance at the TLP Awards Evening on the 12th July.<br />
Miss Wride says " It's lovely to give the students the<br />
opportunity to perform in a large ensemble to a large audience".<br />
Mr <strong>Summer</strong>ill says " <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s likes to be a key partner with<br />
the local primary schools and this is just an example of us<br />
offering commitment to local primary schools through the TLP".<br />

STUDENT COUNCIL<br />
It has been another busy year for the Student Council at <strong>Bishop</strong><br />
Fox’s. The elected representatives from each tutor group have met<br />
regularly to discuss the important issues of the time.<br />
Representing the student body, they started the year with a SWOT<br />
analysis which was taken to the Senior Leadership Team and the<br />
site team to discuss and inform planning. Also the <strong>School</strong> Council<br />
had a ballot and chose the school’s charity for 2012-13 Macmillan<br />
Cancer Support, Think Amy Campaign & Children’s Hospice<br />
SouthWest.<br />
Topics included: the use of the hall at lunchtime, the canteen,<br />
reception duty, trips, the Equalities Policy, student voice, ICT<br />
provision and rewards, have been some of the issues that have<br />
been debated. Miss Tonkin and Mrs Robertson have found that<br />
the students are very passionate about improving the experience<br />
at Fox’s and have made sure that their voices have been heard.<br />
Also the school council reps had a session with a focus on the<br />
Ofsted experience from the point of view of the students. We were<br />
very proud of the comments made by the Inspectors from the<br />
meetings that they had with the student body, including a group<br />
of school council representatives.<br />
Well done to all who have been involved this year, speaking up for<br />
their community and making things happen as a consequence.<br />
This is politics at work.<br />
PREFECTS<br />
This is a very busy half term for Year 10 students – including<br />
exams, work experience and the Prefect Application process.<br />
A massive congratulations for the new cohort of prefects who have<br />
been successfully chosen to be prefects for <strong>2013</strong>-14. It is an<br />
extremely important job that needs to be done and the cohort of<br />
prefects are positive role models for all students to aspire to.<br />
There are various roles that the prefects fulfil including helping with<br />
reading rebels for KS3 students, wake and shake, supporting<br />
homework club in C1, organising the Careers library, coordinating<br />
practice interviews with Mrs Dalling, doing lunchtime duties,<br />
entertaining the masses in the hall, supporting school events,<br />
guides for parents on Open Evening, meeting and greeting at<br />
Parents’ Evening amongst many others. It is going to be a busy<br />
time – but I can’t imagine that there is a better group of students<br />
to work with!<br />
We have been very proud of the way that the prefects have<br />
conducted themselves so far, this includes the prefect training day<br />
in June. Mr Hudson, a former school governor, used his military<br />
background to give advice to the teams on how to be more<br />
assertive. Miss Pitman and Mr Appleby provided activities that<br />
were fun and helped them work together in teams.<br />
It was a great day and a lot was learnt in preparation to start duties<br />
in September.<br />
NEW HEAD PREFECTS<br />
The new Head Prefects with their specific areas of responsibility<br />
are:<br />
Lucy Gratland (Head Girl and leader of Hall Team)<br />
Jack Scadden (Head Boy and Duty Team Leader)<br />
Coryn Howse (Duty Team Leader)<br />
Will Larkman (Duty Team Leader)<br />
Adrian Lane (Duty Team Leader)<br />
Fahad Hossain (Duty Team Leader)<br />
Lori Barnes (Leader of Careers Team)<br />
Alicia Gudge (Leader of SEN Team)<br />
A big congratulations to the new team. It has been particularly<br />
difficult this year due to the exceptional calibre of the Year 10<br />
prefects.<br />
The selection of Head Prefects is a very rigorous process with the<br />
8 candidates completing a gruelling interview with Mr Scutt and<br />
Miss Tonkin where the various roles are decided. Prior to this<br />
selection the prefects have to fill out an application form which<br />
requires a student sponsor and a staff sponsor to endorse their<br />
application. All of Year 10 have also had the opportunity to vote<br />
for those that have showed real leadership potential on the Prefect<br />
Training Day. Staff have also been given the opportunity to<br />
comment on the applicant’s personal strengths and leadership<br />
skills.<br />
We wish the team the very best for <strong>2013</strong>-14; leading a team of<br />
your peers can have its difficulties but we are confident that you<br />
all have the attributes to do your job exceptionally well.<br />

Cricket<br />
Year 8 Cricket<br />
After a slow start to the season our Year 8 team went on to win 6<br />
out of 7 games and we are still looking to re-arrange the final<br />
game. If we win the final game, we could finish top of the league.<br />
It has been another positive season, with a lot more interest and<br />
more of our players playing for clubs outside of school. All of which<br />
has meant players have improved and so has the team. Individual<br />
performances are therefore hard to mention, but some key factors<br />
in winning certain games include; a 52 and a 65 not out from Harry<br />
Smith, Liam Winter reaching his retirement total, Joe Nicholls with<br />
a 3 for and Jack Jackman with a 4 for, to name but a few. It has<br />
been a real squad development this year with many players getting<br />
some game time throughout the season. This means we can look<br />
forward to another successful season next year, hopefully showing<br />
even more development.<br />
Most Committed Player: Liam Winter<br />
Most Improved Player: Jack Jackman<br />
Most Valuable Player: Harry Smith<br />
Year 10 Cricket<br />
The Year 10 Cricket side have once again proved very<br />
committed with attendance at training and matches never being<br />
an issue. Individual progress has been huge in many cases,<br />
largely due to practice and involvement in club cricket which<br />
stretches their ability and understanding. A big win against the<br />
Academy was followed unfortunately with losses to Castle and<br />
West Somerset due mainly to inadequate batting leaving the<br />
bowling attack too much to do.<br />
Year 9 Cricket<br />
A solid season this year for the Year 9 team, finishing mid table.<br />
Overall we had some good performances, even in some of the<br />
games that we lost. Consistent bowling from Keynone Blight,<br />
wickets taken by Harvey Revolledo, score card ticked over by<br />
Callum Lee and Mark Sanders, to name but a few. However, I<br />
believe with better commitment from some squad players that<br />
hardly featured this year, it would only help our team’s<br />
development. Looking forward to competition for places and a<br />
committed squad to show great improvement next season.<br />
Special mention to Rosie Brain our teams scorer and the ‘catering<br />
team’.<br />
Most Committed Player: Keynone Blight<br />
Most Improved Player: Alex Jenkins<br />
Most Valuable Player: Mark Sanders<br />
Scores of note were returned by Sam Hammond, Connor Noble<br />
and Tom Bennett whilst the bowling showed more depth with<br />
Connor Noble, Tom Harris, Ben Henson, Tom Bennett and Millie<br />
Rossiter contributing. I wish all luck in their cricketing future.<br />
A final mention to Millie Rossiter who has been an example to<br />
all for the past 4 years.<br />
Most Improved: Ben Henson<br />
Most Committed: George Johnston<br />
Most Valuable Player: Connor Noble<br />

The Spring<br />
term will see<br />
the arrival of the<br />
Hockey season,<br />
all are welcome.<br />
ATHLETICS<br />
Area Athletics took place for the Year 7’s & 8’s at Danesfield<br />
<strong>School</strong>. Many students competed and many performed<br />
extremely well, winning performances came from Jack Slipper<br />
– Year 8 Shot Putt, Charlie Penny – Year 8 Shot Putt, Jacob<br />
Coxon – Year 8 100m. The Year 8 boys relay team also left the<br />
other schools running in their tracks as they stormed to a<br />
celebratory 1st place.<br />
The Year 9’s & 10’s competed at The Castle <strong>School</strong>, again many<br />
exceptional performances. James Slipper won both the shot<br />
and discus, and Tim McKee and Harvey Revolledo both had<br />
excellent sprint races.<br />
A special mention needs to be given to Tim McKee who has<br />
made great progress this season. Early in June Tim qualified to<br />
compete at Exeter Arena in the South West <strong>School</strong>s; racing in<br />
both the 100m and 200m and coming top 3 in both races very<br />
nearly got him through to compete at Nationals. His time was<br />
just milliseconds off – fingers crossed for next year!<br />
A team of Year 7 and 8 athletes also competed in the Junior<br />
Championships in Yeovil. The competitors had to have met<br />
specific standards in order to perform, so the group were select.<br />
Having the opportunity to perform on a proper athletics track<br />
was a first for most of those at the event; all embraced this<br />
opportunity and gave it their all. Megan Baker succeeded in the<br />
challenge of breaking the school record for the 1500m – a<br />
fabulous achievement.<br />
Training has also paid off for other athletes with school records<br />
also being broken by Will Larkman (javelin) and James Slipper<br />
(shot and discus).<br />
Long distance runners should keep their eye out for information<br />
on cross country events later in the year.<br />
ROUNDERS<br />
Although training began at the start of the term the competitive<br />
season got off to a slow start due to our fabulous summer<br />
weather. Many games have still not been played due to having<br />
been postponed.<br />
Year 7 are still yet to play their first match – this has<br />
unfortunately meant that we have lost some players throughout<br />
the term. However there is still a solid team who show full<br />
commitment at training and who will compete over the final<br />
weeks of term. They have also had some good practice by<br />
training with the older years.<br />
Years 8, 9 and 10 have had many more successes than defeats.<br />
Year 8 have developed into a very strong team, with excellent<br />
cooperation and teamwork. Fielding skills have been much<br />
improved through communication and improved knowledge<br />
and understanding of the game.<br />
Year 9 have had training interrupted due to many having other<br />
commitments within school and therefore being unable to<br />
attend all training sessions – unfortunately this has had a<br />
detrimental effect on their teamwork and therefore game play.<br />
Year 10 work superbly well together and can resist pressure of<br />
other schools when necessary. They excelled in their most<br />
recent game against Heathfield – the pressure from Fox’s made<br />
the opposition crumble before the first innings were over.<br />
Hopefully a similar situation occurs in their next match against<br />
Castle.<br />
Player of the Season<br />

AND FINALLY...<br />
A huge thank you to all the hard work that the Sports Leaders<br />
put into the support for Sports Day. They ensured the day ran<br />
smoothly and were invaluable with their contributions. They<br />
demonstrated on the day the skills that have made them<br />
excellent Leaders throughout the Year.<br />
They have been involved in a series of Primary Festivals<br />
throughout the summer term and we have had some fabulous<br />
comments from the visiting Primary Teachers, who have said<br />
they have always enjoyed coming to <strong>Fox's</strong> and how<br />
professional the Leaders have been. A huge thank you to all for<br />
the hard work they have put in this year.<br />

Poetry Day<br />
Year 7 students at <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s <strong>School</strong> recently had a very<br />
entertaining day with Poet, Paul Cookson, poet in residence to the<br />
National Football Museum.<br />
Following an initial presentation, during which students were<br />
entertained with readings of Paul’s highly comical poems and<br />
anecdotes, groups visited master classes where they were given<br />
the opportunity to ask Paul questions about his career and writing<br />
poetry. They also wrote comical group poems with Paul, learning<br />
about structure and rhythm.<br />
All of the students had enjoyed the day enormously - with many<br />
comments that poetry was more fun than they could ever have<br />
imagined!<br />
Fab Art Club<br />
Visit to Sheppy’s Cider Farm<br />
The Art Club went on a visit to Sheppy’s Cider Farm in May to<br />
get inspired for this year’s Community Arts Project. The theme<br />
is ‘Orchard’ which we worked on and provided an exhibition.<br />
During the visit the students saw chickens, ducks and other farm<br />
animals. We looked around the museum and saw some vintage<br />
farm and cider production machinery. We also posed for<br />
photographs for the Gazette to promote the “Flag for Somerset<br />
Competition”. Students had a great time; the sun was shining<br />
and the orchards were beautiful with the trees all covered in pink<br />
blossom. We tasted some lovely apple juice and enjoyed ice<br />
creams.<br />

OFTSED REPORT<br />
“A GOOD SCHOOL WITH MANY OUTSTANDING FEATURES”<br />
Once again <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s <strong>School</strong> has been rated “Good” with<br />
many outstanding features by Ofsted.<br />
The Inspection Team visited the school on the 18 and 19 April<br />
<strong>2013</strong>.<br />
The school secured a judgement of “Good” in all four categories<br />
including “achievement”, teaching and learning, leadership and<br />
management and behaviour and safety.<br />
Photo: Libby, Yaz, Anita, Elisabeth and Charlotte<br />
Headteacher, Paul Scutt commented that:<br />
“we are delighted with the outcome of the inspection particularly<br />
given the framework which is so much more demanding than<br />
previous ones.<br />
A great many schools have suffered under this new framework.<br />
We had the opportunity to attend the regular review meetings of<br />
the team during the inspection and it was heart-warming to know<br />
that we were within a whisker of the outstanding judgement in two<br />
of the four categories.<br />
Highlights in the report include the comments that:<br />
“students make good progress throughout the school because<br />
teaching is good”<br />
“students behave well and feel very safe”<br />
“leaders at all levels, including the Governing Body, are ambitious<br />
and have high expectations of students”.<br />
High Standards & High Expectations<br />
76% of all lessons were judged to be good or outstanding and<br />
none inadequate.<br />
This is the third recent inspection where the school has been highly<br />
regarded despite the change in the framework and the raising of<br />
the bar.<br />
My staff and students are the jewels in our crown and I am<br />
delighted for them that the school continues to be highly respected<br />
by the system”

Pi Challenge Update!<br />
As reported in the Easter newsletter, KS4 teacher Liz Harvey ran a number of activities<br />
on International Pi Day (Thursday 14th March) to raise awareness of the magical<br />
mathematical number Pi. One of the challenges was to see who could memorise the<br />
greatest number of digits of Pi. Winners are now confirmed as Liam Cannings 9BB<br />
and Ciaran Nicholls 10PC, who memorised 50 and 100 digits respectively. The overall<br />
champion was Rosie Brain 9SK who memorised a staggering 120 digits! All winners<br />
received a Pi badge, certificate, and, of course, some ‘Pie!’<br />
Well done to all!<br />
Accelerated Reader<br />
Accelerated Reader is here at <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s. We have<br />
purchased a new, innovative and<br />
interactive reading programme,<br />
designed to engage all students<br />
in reading for pleasure, improve<br />
their reading skills and thereby<br />
improve their literacy abilities in<br />
all areas of the curriculum.<br />
All Year 7 and 8 students have now taken a ‘bench mark’<br />
reading comprehension test. The results of which have<br />
provided us with a range of data on each student’s reading<br />
ability, including a Reading Comprehension Age score, a<br />
National Curriculum score and a ZPD score ( Zone of Proximal<br />
Development or Book Level). It is the ZPD score that students<br />
will use to select a book at the appropriate level and then (within<br />
24 hours of completing the book) take an online quiz on that<br />
book.<br />
Students are encouraged to read at least 25 minutes per day<br />
and record their reading on a reading log. They should select<br />
books in the first instance at the lower end of their ZPD in order<br />
to gain some early successes on the quizzes. They can then<br />
move up through their ZPD so long as they are hitting their<br />
minimum target of 85%.<br />
Certificates, prizes and awards will be presented to students<br />
who read the most words – The Millionaires Club, and those<br />
who consistently achieve 100% on the quizzes – The 100%<br />
Club, each half term.<br />
The school Reading Champions have also been trained in how<br />
Accelerated Reader works and can help with any questions,<br />
students or parents may have about the programme, selection<br />
of books, help with quizzes and reading skills.<br />
Well done for the commitment and enthusiasm these students<br />
have shown in helping set up the Programme: A big thank you<br />

10 go to Oxford University<br />
In the depths of December I made an application in the hope that<br />
some students would be able to get on to the Oxford pathways<br />
programme. The New Year dawned with good news but tinged<br />
with a sting. The application was successful but there would only<br />
be provision for 10 students. To win the places, just like applying<br />
for a real place at Oxford, our high achieving students had to<br />
submit a 150 word personal statement, have data from the school<br />
showing that they were on course for achieving A / A* in all their<br />
subjects and to be received by a deadline, midday 28 February<br />
<strong>2013</strong>.<br />
An early morning email on 4 March and the names of the<br />
successful students arrived from the city of dreaming spires. We<br />
would be off to St John’s College, Oxford on Wednesday 12 June<br />
<strong>2013</strong><br />
To get to Oxford for the 10:15 start the school minibus, safely and<br />
ably driven by Mr Barnett-Jones, whisked the bleary eyed 10 off<br />
just before 7:00am. Note – how to have a minibus full of students<br />
quiet; get them out of bed around about 6am!!<br />
The day itself unwound at pace. A quick cup of coffee and<br />
biscuits, then, into the auditorium of St John’s to meet with the<br />
other 7 school parties. We thought we had travelled far but one<br />
had travelled down from Leeds while another school had come<br />
from Sussex. We quickly learnt about the University and found<br />
out that Tony Blair went to St John’s as well as Boris Johnson! A<br />
sense of political balance<br />
Soon we were off in the company of a second year biochemistry<br />
student who gave us a whistle stop tour of the main University<br />
sites. We even got to go into the science park, not normally open<br />
to the public, where all the labs are located. This is all high rise<br />
modern steel and glass buildings that would not look out of place<br />
in Canary Wharf.<br />
Our next port of call was Worcester College. The entrance looks<br />
quite insignificant and unassuming from the busy main road but<br />
step through the medieval solid oak door and we were surrounded<br />
by architectural magnificence, quiet and the most pristinely cut<br />
lawn that would give Wimbledon a run for its money. A more<br />
sedately paced tour of Worcester revealed their libraries - £250 pa<br />
grant for books for each student; students cramming for their final<br />
exams; a garden bigger than Vivary Park complete with its own<br />
beautiful lake leading down to the College’s own cricket and rugby<br />
pitches and on to the boathouse.<br />
The student accommodation is stunning – it makes Holiday Inn<br />
look down at heel! A communal kitchen for 4 students to share<br />
looking as though it had come out of the Ikea catalogue was<br />
shown off. We were even allowed to step in to a student’s room<br />
to see what it was like – tidy!! No wonder they have a “scout” who<br />
tidies the room each day and cleans once a week. I could feel our<br />
group wanting this arrangement for their everyday living now. Free<br />
fast unlimited broadband in every room topped off the envy.<br />
Lunch in the ornate dining room was a bit of a let-down as we<br />
thought we would have something sumptuous. A plate of home<br />
produced pizza and chips with salad was more little chef than<br />
master chef.<br />
The afternoon slot was given over to a style of lecture based on<br />
the Oxbridge tutorial system derived from the Socratic system of<br />
the Greeks. With the school from Leeds we were involved in a<br />
tutorial with the Director of the political science programme who<br />
lead us on an exploration of the notion of democracy. His style of<br />
questioning certainly flummoxed many of the students especially<br />
when having posed a question to a student he patiently waited for<br />
the student to try to formulate an answer. The long silences<br />
became a form of psychological torture with nowhere to hide. Our<br />
champion within this session was James Lovelock who produced<br />
some well -argued points<br />
The day finished with a plenary session at St John’s with advice<br />
on how to apply to Oxford, what grades they needed to be thinking<br />
about at GCSE and what type of courses to study at A level for<br />
entry. We rounded the time off with a number of photo<br />
opportunities before escaping back into the minibus. The long<br />
day ended back where we started but at 7:00pm, tired but having<br />
had the chance to view a possible future for our students.<br />
What did our students think of the experience To paraphrase<br />
they all want to go to university, they were amazed by the whole<br />
experience, astounded by the possibility of being able to study<br />
over 5,000 subjects but also the reality of needing to study hard<br />
now as 7 A* are required at GCSE if you want to be considered for<br />
medicine let alone the A*AA minimum at A level.<br />
Would they go again An overwhelming, yes. So if you will be in<br />
Year 10 in 2014 are working hard then look out, the Oxford trip<br />
may be coming your way.<br />
The students: Sasha Blackmore, Ellie Causley, Ope Howard, Gabbi<br />

4 Win University Place<br />
Four talented Year 9 students won a 4 day Railway Engineering<br />
course at the University of Bath. Ben Prouse, Sadie Fear,<br />
Phoebe Causley and Lucas Williams will be provided with the<br />
opportunity to work with professional engineers on design and<br />
make projects and learn basic engineering skills.<br />
All students participated in a STEM day at <strong>Bishop</strong> Fox’s and<br />
were identified as showing talent in this area and subsequently<br />
provided good reasons why they should be involved.<br />
