RSA Academy Arrow Vale (formerly Arrow Vale High School) is a co-educational secondary school and sixth form with academy status located in Redditch, Worcestershire, England. The school is sponsored by the Royal Society for the encouragement of Arts, Manufactures & Commerce opening as an RSA Academy in September 2012. The school is a member of the RSA Family of Academies.〔http://www.thersa.org/action-research-centre/learning,-cognition-and-creativity/education/family-of-academies 〕 It currently has around 620 students on roll with 180 in the sixth form. ==Academic results== Results in the predecessor school were flat lined at 29% 5A *CEM in 2007, 2008 and 2009. This rose to 33% in 2010. Change in leadership then led to series of step changes in results. In 2011, 49% of students achieved this benchmark, with 59% in 2012. In 2013, having converted to an RSA Academy, this rose to well above national figures at 64%. Students achieving 5A *G grades rose from 94% (national average) in 2012 to 99.5% in 2013. Under the new government measure of best 8 subjects including English and maths, the progress the students made from key stage 2 to 4 in was 1044 (national 1000) which represents outstanding progress. The school's focus on disadvantaged students prompted a visit in December 2013 by The Minister of State for Schools, David Laws. Laws was interviewed by the ''Redditch Standard'' saaying "with strong leadership and desire there was no reason schools could not deliver more for their students. There are too many communities and schools in the past, and some still around today, where the aspiration hasn’t been high enough and people often think because schools serve a disadvantaged catchment that is an excuse or justification for having low levels of performance,This is a brilliant example of a school that just a few years ago was producing quite unimpressive results and yet with the right leadership and the right teaching has totally transformed the outcomes for young people.”〔http://www.redditchstandard.co.uk/2013/12/26/news-Transformed-school-shows-minister-the-way-upward-93051.html〕 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「RSA Academy Arrow Vale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
