Christ the King College is a joint Church of England and Catholic secondary school and sixth form college located in Newport on the Isle of Wight. It was created in September 2008 by amalgamating two older schools, Archbishop King Catholic Middle School and Trinity Church of England Middle School. As such, the school is on two separate campuses, both located close to each other on Wellington Road. Having previously accommodated years 5 to 8, the school now takes students from years 7 to 13 after its plans to extend the age range and become a Church of England and Catholic high school.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Christ the King College homepage )〕 ==History== The school was formed on September 1st, 2008 when two middle schools on Wellington Road, Archbishop King Catholic Middle and Trinity Church of England Middle merged. This was done in line with the education reforms that were being implemented to schools across the island at the time.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=School reform plans revealed )〕 The desire to expand beyond the current age range of 9–13 years was first registered in December 2004, shortly after a new headteacher, Pat Goodhead, was appointed. In 2006, after "outstanding" Ofsted inspections for Trinity, and the need for a new headteacher for Archbishop King, a joint governing body committee was formed and Goodhead was appointed headteacher of both Trinity and Archbishop King. Amalgamation of the two schools moved on as there were positive responses from all involved, including clergy, parents and staff, which was confirmed during an official review. The schools were fully amalgamated in September 2008, resulting in the closure of Trinity and Archbishop King middle schools.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Final reunion for middle school )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Christ the King College – History )〕 Following the new launch, an opening ceremony was held in October 2008.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Faith key in new Christian college )〕 In the college's first academic year (2008-2009), it accommodated from the original school year ranges of both schools, 5-8. The next year, the school increased their range by 1 to include a year 9 - who were the year 8 students advancing a year - as well as taking in a new year 5 (this was the College's final whole year intake until 2012). Each year until 2013 a new higher year was added to the College's age range through the current highest year moving up. At the beginning of the college's academic year 2013-2014, it had reached its goal to become a full secondary school and sixth form. As the lowest year progressed to the consecutive years above them, the lower years they had moved up (years 5 and 6) were removed from the college's range. It was unique in the United Kingdom in accommodating these age ranges, a reflection of its transformational status from middle to high school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Christ the King College, Isle of Wight」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
