Medina College is a foundation trust-supported secondary school in Newport on the Isle of Wight, formerly Medina High School. ==History== Medina High School was founded in 1976 on the current site. By the 1990s, the school suffered from a falling roll and finances, with Richard Williams brought in as head in 2002, the fifth head in 2 years. In 2004, blazers were reintroduced to replace polo and sweatshirts, with procedures from a number of schools include troubled school in Birmingham introduces to help discipline.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Isle of Wight County Press – "Trust is the key in head's big plan" )〕 In 2008, the school was deemed "Outstanding" in an Ofsted inspection.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Medina High School News – "OUTSTANDING" ) 〕 The longest serving teacher was Crispin Keith. In September 2008, the school decided to pursue trust status, becoming a foundation school on 3 February 2009 and also a trust school, with partners University of Portsmouth, the Isle of Wight NHS Primary Care Trust, the Quarr Group, Solo Agency and Quay Arts.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Isle of Wight County Press – "Medina High plan for charitable trust" )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Isle of Wight County Press – "IW gets first trust school" )〕 The school also introduced International Baccalaureate courses. As part of the reorganisation of the education system on the Isle of Wight, Island Innovation Trust (formerly Medina Innovation Trust), formed by the school's trust, was successful in their bid against Academies Enterprise Trust and again Island Innovation Trust without a hard federation to take over the school. In 2011, the school opened with the age range extended to Year 7 to Year 13. It is now one of 5 secondary providers on the Isle of Wight, with the school in a hard federation with Carisbrooke College. In January 2010, the current head Richard Williams announced he would be stepping down no later than Easter and moving on to become principal of an academy school in Kent, partly influenced by the school's re-organisation.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Heads set to leave )〕 As Medina High School, the school was made a specialist Arts College and received the Artsmark gold award in 2007. The school has won medals in local and national trampolining competitions including the British Schools Trampolining Competition in March 2009.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Medina bounce to GB finals )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=School jumps to British gold )〕 Also, Medina took part in the White Air extreme sports festival held at Yaverland.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=White Air events report 2007 ) 〕 The school shares a 6th Form Campus with Carisbrooke College on the former Nodehill Middle School site, known as Island Innovation VI Form Campus. The 2012 pass rates for the school were 32.5% 5+ A *-C including English and Maths for GCSE and 97.8% pass rate with 67% A * to C for A Level at Island Innovation VI, run by the college with Carisbrooke.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=GCSE results issued for the Isle of Wight )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Isle of Wight A-level results released )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Overall A-Level results issued for the Isle of Wight )〕 Until his death on 18 March 2008, Anthony Minghella served as the school's patron.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Isle of Wight County Press – "Minghellla backs Arts College bid" )〕 On 1 September 2014, Nathan Thomas left his post as head teacher of the 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「Medina College」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
