Burford School - Means of Separation

Means of Separation

The students are separated in a general English School System way. Each "Year Group" is divided into 8 or so "Form Groups". These Form Groups have around 30 pupils. The Form Groups will have a Form Tutor, who will register and look after the pupils. The Head Of Year deals with issues between interlinking Form Groups, and as a general looks after the Pupils. The Form Groups have various lessons together, whilst spending some apart based on ability. Subjects such as English, Religious Education and Geography are spent together until Year 10. Homework timetables have been set for the students to base their time and effort on in hope more students will apply their knowledge not only at school but at home too. http://www.burford.oxon.sch.uk/Mainfolder/HomeworkTimetable2012-13Years7-11.pdf

Famous quotes containing the words means of, means and/or separation:

    A popular Government, without popular information, or the means of acquiring it, is but a Prologue to a Farce or a Tragedy.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    The radio ... goes on early in the morning and is listened to at all hours of the day, until nine, ten and often eleven o’clock in the evening. This is certainly a sign that the grown-ups have infinite patience, but it also means that the power of absorption of their brains is pretty limited, with exceptions, of course—I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. One or two news bulletins would be ample per day! But the old geese, well—I’ve said my piece!
    Anne Frank (1929–1945)

    In a separation it is the one who is not really in love who says the more tender things.
    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
