Serving a high poverty neighbourhood, The Ramsgate School was challenged by national targets, low levels of attainment of the school intake at 11 and difficulties of recruitment and retention of quality staff. The local housing estates were amongst the most deprived in the country and shared the school's negative reputation. The school became The Marlowe Academy in 2005 with new leadership and a new building (in 2006). Student numbers increased, attendance and attainment came close to the national average and the atmosphere in the school was transformed, though the characteristics of the pupils in terms of special needs (twice the national average) and deprivation (more than twice the national average entitled to free school meals) remained unchanged. This book questions the notion that school improvement and school leadership are key areas to focus on when the socio-economic circumstances of pupils, poverty, dwarf all the other factors which are related to the educational progress of students. 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 650 0 Poor children|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh85104852|xEducation|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh99005758|zGreat Britain|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/n79023147-781|vCase studies.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001484 650 0 Public schools|zGreat Britain|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2010011988|vCase studies.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99001484 650 7 Poor children|xEducation.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/1071175 650 7 Poor children.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1071167 650 7 Public schools.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1082942 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204623 653 4 Education. 653 4 Education (general) 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Case studies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1423765 655 7 Case studies.|2lcgft|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ genreForms/gf2017026140 830 0 Studies in professional life and work ;|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2011028581|vv. 7. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=532529|zOnline eBook.
