I'm trying to think up some catchy slogan or slogans on the theme of we need a High School for Atherton, but haven't come up with anything yet.

I'll need to put my thinking head on as Wurzel Gummidge used to say, and see what I can come up with between now and our next meeting on the 18th.

I'll also send you some ideas concerning what I think we need to do practically from now on to win a our fight, which it might be a good idea to circulate to everyone before the meeting so that people can have some time to mull over them and suggest amendments and/or alternatives to them. Whatever we all agree should then be put forward to the people of Atherton as our plan of action to secure a first class Community run High School in our town to rival not only any in the borough but any in the country.

I think the idea of a new Atherton Town Council, or a committee of parents from Atherton taking on the management and running of such a new non-denominational Community High School will much better capture the imagination of the people of our town than our continuing to flog the dead horse of saving the current  CofE High School, which even the CofE has washed its hands of, and which under the joint management of the CofE and the Council's over the years has led the School to the sorry situation it is in today, as well as the poor reputation, rightly or wrongly,  it has created for itself amongst large section of Atherton's townsfolk.

Yes HFHS might be improving now, but the Governing body of the school, given its current make-up, can't be relied on to lead it anywhere other than to it closure. We need a new school and a new Governing body on the current HFHS site which ALL the people of Atherton would be proud of, and given the appropriate funding from the Council, their children might excel at educationally. Also one which might incorporate some or all of the 14-19 vocational courses which have been suggested by the Council for their  proposed PFI funded 14-19 Centre at the site once the HFHS has been closed and the existing buildings demolished.

I'm confident we can win this argument and we can achieve this aim if we all work together and wage a united fight for this objective.

Best wishes

1^st July 2009

 

To Whom it May concern

 

I would like to add my support to the request that Hesketh Fletcher High School remains open. The community of Atherton, which numbers approximately 22,000 people, deserves to have a High School of its own to serve as a centre for community cohesion and development. Without the High School, one of the few remaining facilities that the town has, there would be nothing left in Atherton for the local community to focus on and this would inevitably lead to social breakdown.

 

Apart from the vital issue of leaving the heart of the community where it is, I would also like to say that the school provides an excellent nurturing and learning environment for my child and that their attachment to the school is very real and needs to be maintained. I do not see why they cannot remain at the school which is easy to access, cuts down on the need for transport and delivers an extremely good standard of education. The staff are rightly proud of what they do and the contribution that they make to developing the skills of Atherton�s future residents.

 

I can understand anyone wanting to improve the standards of further education at this end of the Borough but do not accept that it has to be a stand alone 14 to 19 centre. It could, just as easily, be an 11 to 19 centre and Atherton�s children would have the opportunity to remain where they flourish for longer. Andy Burnham has assured us that our concerns will be addressed and that everyone�s opinion will be considered before the LA makes a decision. I hope that the same guarantee will be forthcoming from the local council. The 2,200 signatures on our petition clearly indicate what the local people want.

 

My point is, why change what works well for Atherton and make us a dormitory town on the edge of several other townships? This will not improve our confidence in our local representatives and we need to be listened to.

 

Yours sincerely

Address:

 

HI All

 

ARA Meeting Re Hesketh Fletcher,

 

20 People turned up to discus that very subject.

 

There is another meeting with Andy Burham Friday 6pm at the cricket club. (Sorry I am working)

 

There was a great deal of discussion in fact for 2 hours.(7pm -9pm)

 

The next meet of the ARA will be 29th July 2009 Tuesday at (Hesketh Manor) 7pm upon we will find a representation to go to

Wigan on the 30th to be present at the meeting in the Town Hall 3pm.

 

Then at the Public meeting on the 4th August 2009 Tuesday at Jubilee Hall St Richards Club at 7.30pm we will report all that has taken place.

I would ask as many people to attend this event.

 

So at least we can report to the people of Atherton. 

Out of 22000 we should fill jubilee hall.

 

I hope that all that is taking place that we will have had our say.

 

 

Just for all we had the support of  Norman Bradbury & Bob Splaine at the meeting on Tuesday night.

 

 

Building Schools for the Future

Consultation Response

 

Question 1: Should we use BSF to transform schools in the way described?

 

Yes, we should use BSF funds to transform our schools and few could quarrel with the aims as set out in the consultation document.  Unfortunately the plans do not match the aspirations.  The aims have not been used as a yardstick to test the detail of the plans.  The cost of the transformation in terms of the disruption to the education of pupils, the impact on the communities affected and the environment of the borough (particularly in terms of travel and transport congestion) is way too high.

 

For example, Atherton has had a secondary school at the “heart of its community’” for a hundred years or so.  This has meant that the majority of the population has shared a common experience.  Is there a better way to ensure ‘community cohesion’?  Dispersing that majority to schools outside the township will be detrimental to a tight knit community. Over the last thirty years the adults have dispersed to find work elsewhere, following the decline of the major industries in the town. If the High School is closed and a centre is established that serves children from across the whole of the east of the borough, what will be left to hold the community together?  Atherton will become just another dormitory town lacking the heart that is currently its strength.

 

Through the consultation it is necessary to heed the concerns of the people of the town who have demonstrated their opposition to the plans in a public protest.

 

Question 2:  Does our vision describe what we want to achieve?

 

Yes in terms of today’s preoccupations.  It cannot, however be described as  ‘visionary’.  It pays scant attention to what education in thirty years will look like.  For example, do those in charge of education in the future really think that “the latest technology – for example interactive white boards and computers” ( p.2), already widely used in most schools, describes in any way the technology likely to be in use even ten years from now?  The vision is demonstrably limited in relation to technology and is equally limited in considering what is likely to be required of education in the future.

 

Similarly, there is some mention of the need to limit travel in the interests of the environment, yet this concern is ignored in the plans for children in Atherton.

 

Would it not be preferable to invest in what already serves the communities,  replacing or upgrading the buildings rather than destroying schools that serve their communities?

 

Question 3:  Should schools work together to turn our vision into reality?

 

Yes but if schools are to work together why is one school Fred Longworth High School missed out of the Phase 1 plans and any developments for that school deferred to phase 2?  Surely all schools affected by planned changes in an area need to move together, especially since Fred Longworth is the closest school to Hesketh Fletcher, the school that the plan proposes should be closed?  Failure to include plans for Fred Longworth has limited the choice for existing pupils at Hesketh Fletcher and assumed that an 11-16 school of 1500 in Tyldesley is a good thing.

 

Question 4:  Have we considered all the issues that you feel need to be addressed as part of the re-organization?  If not please explain what you think we have missed out.

 

Many of the issues have been identified but have not been fully addressed in the plans.  It would appear that the plans have not been scrutinized sufficiently to show up the inconsistencies that are present in the detail of the proposals.  They seem to smack more of expediency than planning.  Clearly there is a limit to available funding, but these plans do not describe the future convincingly, do not make best use of what is currently available and sell the community of some 28,000 people in Atherton short.  The cost to the community of Atherton through the loss of its High School is too great.

 

One very important issue not addressed is the optimum size for 11-16 schools.  When Fred Longworth had 1350 on role it was more difficult to manage. I500 is too many.  Three schools, each of about a thousand, would be much better than the current proposal. Examination of the school numbers, in relation to plans for the west of the borough, suggests that schools of around 750 are acceptable.  If that is the case in the west then why is this not true for the east?

 

Question 6:  Do you agree that local children should have priority for a place at a local school?

 

For secondary school pupils of Atherton township this question is a vexed one, since they will not have a “local secondary school” but will be on the periphery of the all the others.  If, for example, they are given preference for places at Fred Longworth, as the nearest school, what will then happen to children in Mosley Common? This has been a difficult issue for many years and the plans do not address it.

.

There does not appear to be much room for an increase in numbers in the area.  Considering the amount of building in and around Atherton and the need to add classrooms to some local primaries, this would seem to be an important consideration. 

 

Question 7:  Do you think admission arrangements would be easier to understand if each denominational school had a defined catchment area?

 

This is not the biggest problem that the plans for the future need to consider particularly in the Atherton area.  The plans will result in the closure of the only CE secondary school in the east of the borough.

 

Question 8:  What are your views on our proposal to establish two 14-19 Centres to deliver Diplomas and post-16 courses?

 

There are two surprising features of these proposals.  The first is the absence of any reference to the local colleges.  What will their role be in the education of 14-16 year olds in the east of the borough?  This is not at all clear.  The professional experience of teaching this age group and delivering vocational courses lies in the tertiary sector but the colleges do not seem to figure in these plans.

 

There has been considerable investment in Leigh’s new 6^th form centre but this is not considered. 

 

The second surprising feature is the way the plans seem to ignore the “home grown” developments of skill centres that stemmed from the need to address the lack of appropriate vocational education for some young people.  These centres, deliberately located in industrial premises, have been largely ignored.  Would it not have been better to learn from the experiences of setting up these centres and successfully seeking employer support?  It is interesting that the idea of a company limited by guarantee to run the proposed centres has been borrowed from these developments while in other respects they have been ignored.

 

Currently there is so little flesh on the bones of the proposals for the skills centres that it is difficult to have much opinion of this part of the plan.  The problem is that in order to establish the centres two schools have to be closed –and for a pipe dream?   

 

Question 9:  What do you think about the idea of the two area based trusts?

 

At the time of writing this idea seems to have been abandoned for lack of support.

 

Question 10:  What are your views on community schools becoming foundation School?

 

As for Question 9., this idea too seems to have found little support. Any school with inherent problems in their building, such as acres of flat roofs, would be mad to support this notion.

 

Of course, if all schools became foundation schools, it would play havoc with the LA’s admissions procedures.

 

 

Question 11:  Overall do you think our proposals will help to develop secondary education to meet the needs and challenges of the 21^st Century?

 

NO.  For all the reasons detailed in the answers to the questions above these plans fail to convince, in spite of the glossy publication.  They are expedient rather than visionary. They fail to meet the needs and challenges of the future and if implemented will be very costly for the communities that the borough is supposed to serve.  Considering the strong public opposition to the proposals pushing through this plan could be politically disastrous, particularly at a time when the government is urging politicians to connect with the people.

 

 

Other Questions.

 

1. Do you think that the document clearly explains why we are proposing to discontinue Hesketh Fletcher CE and enlarge Westleigh High school?  Please tell us what your concerns are.

 

The major reasons stated suggest that there is little support for a secondary school in Atherton since numbers of first choice preferences are low and GCSE results disappointing.  The numbers are low for two reasons.  The threat of closure was made public long before the choice of Secondary school was made.  Consequently parents chose a school where the education of their child would not be interrupted.  Secondly local parents naturally put Fred Longworth as first choice hoping to secure a place at a more successful school falling back on Westleigh when the option of Fred Longworth was denied.

 

Scrutiny of the examination data for Hesketh Fletcher, over the last five years, reveals interesting information.  There is little consistency year on year in overall success as measured by 5 GCSEs A-A*,  32% in 2005, 50% in 2007. There seems to have been some improvement.   One consistent feature is the poor performance in Maths and English.  The LA must have identified this problem so surely it should have been tackled.  Why was Manchester Challenge only involved when the school was chosen for closure?  It would appear that Westleigh High School received funding at an earlier stage.

 

It would also appear that Hesketh Fletcher had a considerably lower budget than other local secondary schools.  It was late receiving specialist status.  Unlike all the other local schools it has not received any Excellence Cluster funding or support.  There must have been difficulty in finding the necessary resources to bring about the required step change while other schools forged ahead.   External advisory support is only partially effective.  Additional staff based in the school, albeit requiring large sums of additional school funding, is more valuable in raising levels of pupil attainment.  It would therefore seem more sensible to have addressed these problems rather than close the school.

 

2. Do you support the proposal to discontinue Hesketh Fletcher and offer alternative places at Bedford, Westleigh and Fred Longworth High Schools?

 

 NO.  There are no places at Fred Longworth High School and never were. It was misleading to include this possibility in the plan.  Travel considerations for young pupils have been given little attention. 

_____________

 

 

I have deliberately not filled in the questionnaire format provided in the document since it seems to have been designed to generate a positive result from any analysis of the responses.  This methodology is typical of the way the consultation has been conducted.

 

One puzzle remains – how can a ‘drop-in session’ require an appointment?

 

One glaring omission from the questions has been any attempt to ask for an evaluation of the consultation process, which in many ways has been seriously flawed.  The local people do not trust the Local Authority, do not trust their local councillor who has failed to support them and feel that this is just another example of being dictated to.

Document Handed to me about Hesketh Fletcher Proposed School Closure.

 

 

Hesketh Fletcher Proposed School Closure

 

Reasons For (According to the Local Authority):

 

• Falling Numbers on Roll � for the past three years rumours have caused uneasiness in local primary schools after a series of meetings were held that gave possible options for the future of education in Atherton. Even then one of the proposals out of a possible seven was to close Hesketh Fletcher so what happened to the other six possibilities? Falling results cannot be the main reason for this shift away from sending local pupils to the local school. Our results have risen year on year overall and even last year were better than Westleigh�s in every area except the 5 A � C with English and math's. The real reason for the falling numbers has been the lack of support from the LA and some feeder schools.

Parents cannot be blamed if they do not send their children to a school that could close if those pupils have to move schools at a crucial point in their education.

• Perceived Image � there has been a general belief that our pupils are ill-mannered and badly behaved because of the access to the town at lunchtime but this has been addressed, all pupils remain in school during a severely shortened lunchtime. Now local people and shop owners are praising our young people for the way in which they behave and there has been no trouble in the town centre at lunchtime for at least two years.

Some officers of the LA have suggested at the consultation meetings that the standards of education at the school were putting parents off but all our young people leave school with qualifications including NVQs and Vocational Qualifications that are necessary in the work place. We do not just concentrate on the gifted and talented although we have a programme in place to stretch them fully.

In addition three members of staff gained AST (Advanced Skills Teacher) status whilst at the school, another was nationally recognized by the RSC as an outstanding teacher of Shakespeare and another has gone on to deliver Early Intervention Strategies in failing schools in another LA. They did not suddenly become all of this when they left the school, they were excellent teachers whilst here.

Hesketh Fletcher is the only school in the area that teaches AS English and RE to year 11 pupils with a 90% + pass rate at grade C and above.

• Financial Necessity � The LA needs to reduce the number of secondary school places but this does not mean automatically closing a school. The LA should have addressed this problem three years ago by creating catchment areas to service all three schools in the area. This is one of the proposals in their BSF brochure and could still be applied to Hesketh Fletcher. Unfortunately political parties do not want to be seen closing the school as it serves their voters and so natural wastage has been encouraged. The LA can now say that this is the best solution to their problem.

The focus now is on bigger schools. However, there is no reason to believe that these are more successful, on the contrary they concentrate problems in one place which can be detrimental to the overall effectiveness of a school. Why not have three schools of equal size with a local feel to them?

 

Reasons Against:

 

• Removal of a Valuable Local Resource - Hesketh Fletcher High School provides access for all within walking distance of all parts of Atherton. Fred Longworth can be reached on foot but this school is in the second phase of BSF and will not have places available until 2012 at the earliest but more probably 2014. Fred Longworth is not even in the consultation process although Westleigh is which suggests that only Westleigh or Bedford will be available to Atherton children.

     Children going to these schools will need to catch at least one bus

     At a cost of �8 per week or two buses to Bedford at a cost of �16

     Per week per child. When this proposal was eventually brought out

     Into the open it was suggested by local councilors that free

     Transport could be made available but now parents are being told

     That there will be no funding for this. Is this just another example

     Of how they have been misled?

• Undermining Community Life � If schools are the heart of the community as the BSF brochure repeatedly says then where will Atherton�s heart be? In Tyldesley, Westleigh or Bedford or all of these? That is where our children will be and that is where their parents will be asked to travel to for parents� evenings, school events and to pick up sick children. If people do not have their own transport how can they easily access the resource that the LA says will be at the heart of their community?
• Denying Local People Choices � If Fred Longworth and Westleigh are oversubscribed how can they offer places before 2012? This means that parents who do not wish to see their child�s education disrupted at the end of year 9 will have to send them to Bedford or Hindley, no choice! There is also the possibility that Westhoughton High School will look to offering  places to our children, again another transport cost, and I have anecdotal evidence that at least one parent was told to send her child to Standish and not Hesketh Fletcher. Another submitted two

Application forms for Hesketh Fletcher only to be told that they

had been lost and was then advised to look for a place elsewhere.

     Parents considering moving to allow them to send their children to

     Saint Mary�s could be left high and dry because the admittance

     criteria for Catholic schools places children of other faiths/no faith

     right at the bottom of their lists. There is already disruption at primary

    level and secondary education is becoming a post-code lottery for many

    parents.

          Why should parents have their children change schools at the end

          of year 9 with the cost of a new uniform and transport? Why

          should young people of 14 have to cope with a new environment, new 

          staff, new friends and the extra time spent travelling in addition to

          the pressures of GCSEs?

• Local Support � this is growing within the local community as parents begin to understand that they are not being treated fairly and that their views are being ignored just as the views of the staff at their consultation were ignored because they were denied the time to express their views and ask their questions. They were given an hour to consult with the LA and half of that time was taken up with a presentation. The Governors� consultation will also be an hour. How much can be openly raised and discussed within that time?

Fred Longworth School, parents, pupils and governors are supporting our wish to remain the community school at the heart of Atherton. They do not want the proposed expansion as they are drastically short of space already. They also feel that the township of Atherton deserves its own school.

 

Concerns:

 

• The lack of effort by some local councillors in support of the school
• False impressions being given of the school and not being addressed within the local community
• The speed of the consultation process and lack of in-depth discussion
• The biased nature and the inconsistencies within the brochure produced to explain the thinking behind BSF
• The fact that the LA officer responsible for seeing BSF through the council process is also in charge of the consultation and will be writing the report
• The fact that the report will be written before the school�s results are out in August
• The fact that the improvement in the school�s results was not part of the information in the brochure
• The lack of investment in the school over the years. Hesketh Fletcher did not receive any funding under either the Coalfield Challenge or the Education Action Zone initiatives to improve local schools whilst both Westleigh and Bedford did yet the school has continued to improve.

 

Missed Opportunities;

 

At the last Director�s Briefing for Chairs of Governing Bodies we were told that the LA is looking to devolve centralised services to 5 local areas, including Social Services, Welfare, Health and Housing, to make them more accessible to people of all ages. Hesketh Fletcher could be one such centre but if the school closes and the heart of our community is elsewhere how will parents, families and the elderly access these services easily? Not everyone has a car or can afford the bus fares.

Hesketh Fletcher is literally the only school at this side of the Borough that has room to expand. It is this aspect of the move to closure that is so attractive to the LA and Manchester Diocese. The site is prime building land with a lovely aspect over the Forestry Commission land; it is worth more to the LA and the Diocese to have the site unoccupied. Hundreds of houses could be built there. The question is where will the children in these houses go to school? One local primary is moving to change its admission number to two form entry as from next year. Will the LA need to expand Fred Longworth and Westleigh even more as these numbers percolate through to secondary level.
