PROSPECTUS
2012 /13
We aim for all students to realise their potential through opportunity, challenge and support. We seek
to create a positive environment where students feel secure and enjoy their learning. Our goal is to
achieve personal fulfilment, and to play an active, positive role in the community. School Aims
Fulford School was rated Outstanding by OFSTED in 2011. The school opened in 1963 and
has been a comprehensive school since 1970. It is situated in a pleasant residential area on the
outskirts of the city and draws most of its students from the villages to the south and east of
York. In recent years the schools success has meant that it has become heavily over-
subscribed. The number of registered students for the start of the 2012-13 academic year is
1336. This includes 309 in the Sixth Form.
The schools growth and success can be seen in a number of ways. There has been an extensive
building programme in recent years to provide additional specialist classrooms. The level and
quality of ICT in the school have seen impressive growth as befits our Maths and Computing
specialist status. The school has achieved the Healthy Schools Award, the Advanced Inclusion
Award, the FA Charter Mark and awards for excellence in mentoring and the management and
development of our support staff.
Our Outstanding OFSTED report in 2011 reflects the excellent leadership and management at
the school, the strength of our curriculum, the effectiveness of our care and guidance and the
strength of our sixth form. What makes Fulford School an outstanding school is that it
manages very successfully to promote both the academic and personal development of its
students. Students confirm that they feel very safe in school. The school is very orderly
and there is a strong ethos for learning which supports all students. Behaviour during the
inspection was outstanding.. There is no sense of complacency. As a result the capacity for
further improvement is outstanding (OFSTED 2011)
The Headteacher of the school is Mr S Smith. Mrs C Cullen is the current Chair of the
Governing Body. Mr Smith has been in post since joining Fulford in 2001 and Mrs Cullen has
recently taken over as Chair of Governors after several years of service on the Governing
Body.
There has been a thriving Youth Centre on the site and successful Adult Education provision at
Fulford since the school opened in 1963. Courses for adults take place at the school on
Tuesday and Thursday evenings and a separate prospectus is produced to show what is
available. Courses are also run at out-centres in the schools catchment area at Heslington,
Dunnington, Escrick, Naburn and Wheldrake. This programme has a wide range of courses,
and students range in age from 12 to 92! Community links are also forged through our work as
a Mathematics and Computing Specialist school. Contact details are given below for the Adult
Education provision.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 1
Our school is highly cohesive. Our aim is to enable students to have an excellent understanding
of their role in society and their contribution within the wider community. We have a clear
understanding of our strengths and areas for development and use this knowledge to benefit
our local community and to make a contribution to the wider regional, national and global
communities.
We aim to offer educational and personal development opportunities for our students to enable
them to become informed and responsible citizens within a multi-ethnic national and global
society. We have charitable links with the Hope School in Chennai in India and have enjoyed a
variety of fundraising activities to support them. Our House pastoral system provides
opportunities to strengthen our contribution to our local community and the wider community
through fundraising and volunteering.
We aim to equip children with an awareness of our diverse society and to appreciate the value
of difference. Every member of Fulford School is regarded as of equal worth and importance,
irrespective of his/her creed, culture, class, race, gender, sexuality and/or disability. We aim for
our staff and students to recognize and challenge any forms of discrimination through
providing a safe environment in which views can be challenged. Equal Opportunities practices
should be evident in the formal curriculum, extra-curricular activities and the hidden
curriculum (the ethos of the school, the quality of personal relationships). Students and
teachers contribute towards a happy and caring environment by showing respect for, and
appreciation of, one another as individuals.
The principles and practice of equal opportunities apply to all members of the school
community: students, teaching and support staff, parents, governors and visitors. Our
Equalities policy covers all aspects of school from admissions of students to appointments of
staff. Our Equalities policy is available in the school office and on the website.
We recognize our statutory duty to eliminate racial discrimination and promote race equality
and good race relations in all that we do. To this end we will ensure that education for a
multicultural society is an integral part of every students experience and will seek to actively
counter any negative views expressed concerning skin colour, language, religion or culture.
This commitment is shared by all members of the school community: teaching and non-
teaching staff, students and governors.
We believe it is vital that new students settle in quickly, and that they feel safe and secure in
school so they can enjoy learning and achieve their full potential. In order to promote this,
students starting at Fulford are placed in form groups where the Form Tutor acts as the
students main guide and mentor. This pastoral support is key to student development and
achievement and is a significant strength of our school.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 2
Fulford School House System
Fulford School has adopted a House system for lower school students. This system allows:
Improved interaction between our form tutors and their students, and students of
different age ranges
The harnessing of the potential of our student body as peer mentors through the
guidance that our older students offer to their younger form members
Our Directors of Learning to be strategic leaders in school through the extended use of
our Student Support Officers to provide behaviour and guidance intervention for
students
A more cohesive school and more consistent experience for our students through
improving our school systems
Parents to be more in their childs learning through more regular contact with school
staff and early intervention when concerns exist
Our sixth form students will continue to enjoy the benefits of their own tutor and personalised
tutorials to aid their learning. They will also be active contributors to our vertical forms and
will be attached to a group for two afternoon tutor sessions a week where they will provide
invaluable support for the group and the tutor. The sixth form team is led by Mr T Morris,
Director of Sixth Form.
Each House will be run by a Director of Learning Apollo House by Mr Gatenby, Athena
House by Miss Pearson, Artemis House by Mr Lacy and Atlas House by Mr Lunn. The
Directors of Learning can be found in their open plan office at the front of school and work as
a close team to maximise the achievement of all our students.
Each House also has a Senior Captain from the sixth form and Captains and Vice Captains
from Year 11. Full details of the House Captains and Vice Captains are on the school website.
These students play an important leadership role within their Houses and run the House
Councils. The Captains report to the Directors of Learning and the Student Presidents. The
school also appoints form representatives and members of the Student Executive and other
roles and responsibilities arise as each year progresses.
School rewards are run through the House Points system. House Points are earned through
positive planner comments and participation and success in key note House events. The
winning house will be rewarded in the summer term!
The Directors of Learning will be supported by our extended Student Support team. Led by
Mrs Tyrer as Lead Worker Education Welfare, the team comprises of Mr Scott (Lead Student
Support Officer), Mrs Wright and Miss Bray (Student Support/Counselling).
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 3
The School Day
The school day starts at 8.35am and finishes at 3.30pm. It is made up of five one hour lessons
and a vertical registration period of twenty minutes. Lunch is between 1.10pm and 2.10pm and
is organised on a rota system with different year groups on first sitting on different days of the
week. In the first week Year 7 students will have a slightly earlier lunch to allow them to
become familiar with their new surroundings. In addition to the lunch break there are two
fifteen minute breaks during the morning session. Students are able to use the cashless catering
system to buy snacks and drinks from the canteen during one of these breaks. Catering
provision includes a salad and sandwich bar and areas serving hot snacks and cooked meals
which again work on a pre-paid cashless catering basis. We request that where students bring a
packed lunch to the school this reflects the healthy eating guidelines and does not contain fizzy
drinks, crisps or confectionery.
School Uniform
Our School Student Council designed our school uniform and full details of the requirements
of this can be obtained from the school office and the school website. In Years 7-9 students
wear a blue school sweatshirt which progresses to a black school sweatshirt in Years 10 and 11.
Girls may wear either a black knee length skirt or black trousers. There is no formal uniform in
the Sixth Form. We believe school uniform plays a key part to play in promoting the ethos of
the school and in enhancing its standards and its collective identity.
Student Conduct
Central to our partnership between the school, students and parents and our drive to achieve
the highest standards of behaviour is our Home-School agreement and our school Code of
Conduct. It is assumed that parents seeking a place in the school for their children are in
agreement with the code of conduct and the Home-School Agreement. These documents set
out our expectations of our students and the standards of behaviour we expect them to adhere
to. Although the vast majority of our students approach their learning in a responsible and
productive manner, there are occasions when sanctions may need to be taken against those who
dont. In the first instance, any problems will be dealt with by the subject teacher through
strategies such as verbal reprimand, detention at breaks, lunch hour or after school, or setting
of additional work. In the event of repeated or more serious problems, a senior member of
staff, usually the Director of Learning or Curriculum Leader, will be involved, will meet with
the student, and if appropriate, place him or her on report or in detention, or withdraw the
student from lessons for a short time. At this stage parents will usually be notified of any
problems and will be asked to come to school to discuss the matter. Fulford adheres to a
policy where parents will normally be informed 24 hours in advance if a student is being
detained after school. Please note that the school has the right to impose an after-school
detention and the notification of this to parents is a matter of courtesy so that any necessary
transport arrangements can be completed. Please note there is no formal notice period required
for school detentions.
Where an after-school detention does occur the parents of students who are placed in this will
be expected to arrange their childs transport home. Any serious offences, of which happily
there are few at Fulford, will result in either the isolation of the student in our Inclusion room
or an exclusion depending upon the severity of the incident.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 4
We believe our excellent record of student behaviour is based on clear and high expectations of
our students, on early intervention and clear home-school communication.
Homework
Homework is an essential feature of the school and is used to develop student learning and to
promote skills such as organisation, time-management and research. Full details of the
homework policy are available from the school office and the website. At the start of each year
class teachers give students details of the time allocation required for each subject homework,
as well as when, and how often, this will be set. On starting school we give students a planner
to record their homework details. The planner is at the centre of home-school communication
and we ask parents/carers to check this regularly and to sign it once a week. The planner is the
key channel of communication between parents and the form tutor and subject teachers, and
plays a crucial role in the operation of the schools Rewards and Sanctions policy.
The school operates a cashless catering system which incorporates the latest technology and
eliminates the need for students to carry cash throughout the day. It is also biometric so there is
no need for pupils to carry a card; the system will recognise the thumb of your child at the top
up points and at the tills. This allows us to continue our work in developing and enhancing the
school meal experience, and provides us with more efficiency, speed and an improved quality
of service. Crucially, it enables you as parents/carers to view the purchase records of your
son/daughter and thus will provide information relating to the health of their diet. Further
information about cashless catering and FAQs can be found on our website
www.fulford.york.sch.uk
Attendance
The school places huge importance on securing high attendance and employs an Attendance
Officer and Student Support Officers to monitor attendance and follow up any unexplained
absences. Where unplanned absence arises, parents/carers should ring the school office on the
first day of absence and notify staff of the reason for this and its likely duration. Students must
bring a parental note explaining the reason for absence on their return to school and hand this
to their form tutor. Our Attendance Policy does not authorise holiday absence during term time
due to the detrimental impact this has on student progress in all year groups. This is especially
damaging in examination courses where regular assessment of work is involved.
In 2011/12 unauthorised absence was 0.8% and authorised absence was 3.5% as percentage of
school attendance.
We inform parents of student progress in subject areas through formal reports and Parents
Evenings. Parents Evenings are held for each year group providing parents and teachers with
the opportunity to meet and discuss the progress of individuals. In addition to the regular
Parents Evenings there are other sessions at key points as the students progress through the
school, such as the Information Evenings on options choices for Years 9 and 11, and the Higher
Education evening for Year 12.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 5
We also hold a series of Progress Reviews for all students in Years 7-11. These provide parents
with an opportunity to meet one-to-one with their childs form tutor to discuss academic
progress. The school news sheet The Fulfordian is published regularly on line and this
includes details of meetings, activities and special events. At the start of the Autumn Term we
send a calendar home giving the important dates for the whole year. This is also available on
the school website, which also provides key information on a range of whole school policies.
Further details of these are also available from the school office.
If parents should have a complaint or concern relating to their childs education they should
refer this to the Director of Learning or a senior member of staff in the first instance. If parents
are still not satisfied with the outcome they should then contact the Headteacher. In the
unlikely event of the matter being unresolved, parents may, through the school, contact the
Chair of Governors who will arrange for any necessary investigation by the Governors. Any
correspondence to the Chair of Governors should be addressed to Mrs C Cullen and should be
handed in to the school office.
School Admissions
Fulford School has a designated catchment area, and children living within this area are given
priority in admission and are usually allocated a place at the school, subject to the admissions
limit. Children from outside this area may apply to the Local Authority for a place at the school
and the request will be granted if there is space. Currently the school is oversubscribed. If,
after receiving details of the school at which your child has been allocated a place, you wish to
enquire about alternative places or appeal against a decision you should contact Educational
Services no later than seven working days after receiving the allocation letter. Full details of all
the CITY OF YORK admissions procedures are available from Educational Services, Mill
House, North Street, York, YO1 6JD. Contact Mr M Ellis on 01904 554246.
A wide range of qualitative and quantitative strategies are used to identify able and talented
students. This identification is the starting point for the provision of enhanced learning
opportunities. Our school strives towards inclusion and recognises a range of human abilities
and talents. In class approaches are central to the provision for able and talented students
through challenge within subject areas, drawing on materials and strategies from later or
higher levels of study, differentiated homework for able and talented when applicable and
provision for multiple intelligences and learning styles in lessons.
Out of class approaches through the Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) can extend a
students capacity to work independently across the curriculum. We liaise closely with the
Excellence Hubs and support student attendance at these events. We do provide a wide range
of enrichment activities within departments. Parents are informed by letter should their child
be identified as having a particular ability or talent.
We make extensive and individual arrangements for the admission of students with special
needs to the school that are tailored to the needs of each student. Our Confidential List,
published twice a year, informs the teaching staff of disabilities and includes details of students
with a range of learning, physical, social communication and medical needs.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 6
For students entering our enhanced resource for autism, the teacher in charge makes visits to
the partner primary school and runs an extensive admissions programme. This includes visits
to Fulford School at different times plus visual timetables and photo diaries. In all our
arrangements we liaise with parents and outside agencies to make the transition as smooth as
possible.
We have an active disability equality scheme and access plan that have been developed from
department improvement planning and consultation with staff, parents and students. This
enables us to address the needs of our current community users as well as anticipating future
requirements. The disability equality scheme can be viewed in full at the Fulford school
website. All students have access to the activities conducted in school and reasonable
adjustments are made for students with disabilities engaging in school trips. Students with
physical disabilities have enjoyed the trip to museums and residential geography field trips.
Our team of teaching assistants and student support officers work with teaching staff to
increase students access to the curriculum. During breaks and lunchtimes there is a supervised
facility where students receive help with homework and can spend time in a sheltered
environment. We meet with parents on a regular basis to address any support issues that have
arisen and the impact of the Special Educational Needs policy is reviewed annually with the
SEN Governor.
We are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children and young people
and expect all our staff and any volunteers in school to share this commitment. We follow City
of York guidelines and procedures regarding safe recruitment and working practices. We have
a Child Protection policy in place with a nominated member of the senior leadership team as
the designated teacher who works and liaises with staff, parents and outside agencies on child
protection issues. Interagency Procedures produced by the City of York are followed when any
member of staff has concerns about the wellbeing and welfare of a student. These procedures
are available at the School Office and online at:
www.saferchildrenyork.org.uk/policy/index.html.
Full details of school policies and other information relating to the school may be found
on the school website.
Fundraising
The School Fund, which is a recognised charity, covers a range of expenditure items. Within
this fund there is a parent fund which is used to provide additional resources for the use of all
students. This fund enables us to bid for matched funding from other sources to extend our
facilities. It enabled us to secure funding for building the Business Studies classrooms and
assisted us in building a suite of classrooms that are now occupied by the History Department.
This fund is a crucial means of providing much needed resources within the school and thus
we ask each family to please help towards the fund by donation or covenant. Further details on
this will be given out at the start of the academic year. The account is audited annually in
accordance with the Charities Commission and a summary of the annual account is provided
each year.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 7
The Parent Teacher Association is another invaluable asset to the school in terms of
fundraising. It meets regularly and organises a variety of activities, some educational, some
social, with many linked to fundraising. All parents are welcome and the Annual General
Meeting is held in the Autumn Term of each year. In the past, parents have raised money for a
wide range of equipment and furnishings, new and replacement minibuses, a sublimation
printer for DT, computer software and goal posts for PE.
Parent Council
The Fulford School Parent Council is a forum for consultation and gathering the views of
parents and carers whose children are currently attend Fulford School. The aim of the council
is to contribute towards Fulford School securing the best learning opportunities for all students
and to ensure that the school engages effectively with parents and carers. School Governors
have an open invitation to meetings. Meetings are chaired by the Deputy Headteacher,
Community. Parent Council meet three times a year.
Fulford seeks to develop the skills, values, talents, creativity and knowledge of all our
community and we see the content, structure, organisation and coherence of the curriculum as
the factors in developing our school ethos and the potential of all those involved with the
school. Our curriculum, both within and outside the classroom, aims to provide high quality
provision, enjoyable learning, excellence, opportunity and challenge for students of all
abilities. It is also designed, along with our Careers Education and Information Advice and
Guidance programme (CEIAG), to enable a broad range of progression routes and personalised
support to meet the needs of our learners.
The assessment opportunities embedded in our curriculum design inform learners of their
current level of progress, allow them to reflect on their learning and identify what they need to
do to improve. Our curriculum underpins all the work we do in school and is central to
securing the highest standards of teaching and learning, student attainment and personal
development. It aims to develop the knowledge, understanding, skills and personal qualities of
our students so they are successful learners, confident individuals, and tolerant and responsible
citizens.
The structure of the curriculum, while meeting statutory requirements, is designed to ensure
that all students are able to make good progress and aims to provide a range of personalised
curricular pathways. We seek to develop a curriculum that meets the needs of our learners and
that enhances student choice through partnership working, within the context of the efficient
and effective use of the resources we have available. We place emphasis on developing
literacy, numeracy, ICT skills and personal development in order to maximise the life chances
of all our students. The structure of the curriculum supports students in achieving skills in
literacy and numeracy, and in developing their capacity for enterprise. One of the key purposes
of our support for students with special needs is to ensure accessibility to the curriculum for all
students as far as is practicable.
We place stress on the development of functional and personal, learning and thinking skills
across all subjects in the curriculum, in order to maximise the potential and future success of
our students.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 8
Our curriculum reflects local and national need, promotes global awareness and sustainability,
and seeks to raise aspirations by providing very strong and visible progression routes into
higher education, further education, apprenticeship training and employment. In order to
optimise our curriculum offer we work in partnership with other institutions and organisations
seeking to further develop opportunities as appropriate.
Students should be taught how to learn and how to reflect and improve on their learning
Clearly structured lessons promote learning
Teachers must create and maintain a purposeful learning environment
Achievement must be recognised and rewarded through the schools rewards system
Underachievement must be challenged, not processed
We also recognise that learning goes beyond the classroom, as reflected by the number of
extra-curricular trips, clubs, off timetable activities and visits
Learning and teaching are interactive. It is important that we teach students how to learn to
learn in order to become independent learners and develop skills for life-long learning.
/var/www/apps/conversion/tmp/scratch_7/352403515.docx 9
In addition, 3 choices are made from the following subjects:
Collective worship is provided through House assemblies and the tutorial programme and is of
a broadly Christian nature. This is designed to develop a community spirit and shared set of
moral values and to promote social awareness and personal reflection. Parents have the right to
request that their children be exempted from attending assemblies of a religious nature and RE
lessons on the grounds of religious belief. Parents also have a right to request the withdrawal
of their child from aspects of Sex Education providing that they do not form part of the
national curriculum. Any comments or concerns parents may wish to raise relating to the
implementation of the National Curriculum or the provision of Religious Education should be
directed to the school in the first instance, and thereafter to the Local Authority.
Key Stage 5 (Years 12 & 13) Learning Programme
A wide range of enrichment activities is available within the sixth form (full details are
in our sixth form prospectus).
