Greenwich Free School is a coeducational secondary free school located in the Woolwich area of the Royal Borough of Greenwich in London, England. The school opened in September 2012 with an initial intake of 11-year-old pupils (academic year 7), with the school expanding admissions every year to become a full secondary school with a sixth form. The school was co-founded by Jonathan Simons, head of education at the think-tank Policy Exchange, and Tom Shinner, a policy adviser at the Department for Education.〔 Jonathan Simons is the Chair of Governors. The school is advised by Dr Challoner's Grammar School, where Tom Shinner had been a teacher. Greenwich Free School offers 100 places per year group, with 97 places being filled for year 7 in 2012. In March 2013 it was reported that Greenwich Free School had received 640 applications for its 100 places for year 7 in 2013. The school operates an open catchment area, but offers places according to the Fair Banding System operated in the Royal Borough of Greenwich. The Fair Banding System places pupils in one of the five bands based on their score in tests taken in primary school. The school then allocates 20% of places to pupils in each band. In the event of over-subscription for places, priority is given to pupils living nearest to the school.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Admissions policy for admission to Years 7 and 12 from September 2014 )〕 Greenwich Free School operates an extended school day from 7.50am to 5.30pm, which includes a homework hour and compulsory extra-curricular activities. The school also operates a strict discipline policy, which includes a ban on pupils having mobile phones on school grounds.〔 In December 2013, Lee Faith, the school's first headteacher resigned. The first Ofsted inspection, made in April 2014, assessed that the school required improvement. A new headteacher joined the school on 1 June 2014. ==References== 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「Greenwich Free School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
