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:
“The two elements the traveler first captures in the big city are extrahuman architecture and furious rhythm. Geometry and anguish. At first glance, the rhythm may be confused with gaiety, but when you look more closely at the mechanism of social life and the painful slavery of both men and machines, you see that it is nothing but a kind of typical, empty anguish that makes even crime and gangs forgivable means of escape.”
—Federico García Lorca (1898–1936)
“You can’t change what happened between you and your ex-spouse, but you can change your attitude about it. Forgiveness doesn’t mean that what your ex did was right or that you condone what he or she did; it simply means that you no longer want to hold a grudge. Forgiveness is not a gift for the other person; it is a purely selfish act that allows you to put the past behind you.”
—Stephanie Marston (20th century)
“Just as children, step by step, must separate from their parents, we will have to separate from them. And we will probably suffer...from some degree of separation anxiety: because separation ends sweet symbiosis. Because separation reduces our power and control. Because separation makes us feel less needed, less important. And because separation exposes our children to danger.”
—Judith Viorst (20th century)
