Ridgewood School (The Academy @ Ridgewood Trust) is an academy in Scawsby, Doncaster, in England. The school gained academy status in October 2011, and was previously a specialist Engineering College. Ridgewood School accepts pupils from the surrounding areas of Sprotbrough, Sprotbrough village (or Upper Sprotbrough) with Copley Junior School and Richmond Hill Primary School, Cusworth with Saltersgate Infants and Junior School, Barnburgh and Marr with Barnburgh Primary, and Scawsby with Rosedale Primary all leading on to Ridgewood. Pupils from Upper Sprotbrough who previously attended Outwood (formerly Adwick Secondary School), are now in the catchment area of Ridgewood. Ridgewood Academy performs average in Doncaster's league tables for GCSE and other results, often around the middle of league table schools. Lessons: Ridgewood School teaches lessons in Geography, Music, History, French, Spanish, Art, ICT, Science, Maths, RE, Technology, Food Tech, English, and Drama. The various blocks within which lessons are taught are named for famous creators, inventors or scientists. The creators are as follows: MacAdam, Curie, Newton, Paxton, Telford, Da Vinci, Brunel, Arkwright, Hargreaves and Faraday, the latter of which is predominantly for Post 16 students. Buses: Travel to the school is provided via the school buses, the 540, which collects students from Sprotbrough village, the 541, which collects students from Lower Sprotbrough, and the 542, which collects students from Barnburgh. A free late bus is also provided in the afternoons, which leaves at 16:30. Detentions: At Ridgewood School, 'consequences' are issued for breaking rules. These are labelled C1, C2, C3 and C4. If a C3 is issued, the student must attend a 30 minute detention, and if a C4 is issued, the student must attend an hour-long detention. Usually, before a C3 is issued, two verbal warnings are issued - a 'C1' and 'C2'. If a student receives a 'C4' during lesson, they are sent to an 'on-call' room. On-the-spot C4s are issued if a student swears, refuses to start a task, speaks to a member of staff inappropriately, and fails to do as they have been asked to the first time. Pupils are given a 'right to appeal' wherein a pupil can, at break the following day, request a review of the 'consequence', with successful appeals leading to the C3 or C4 being removed. The school also caters for 6th formers with courses including engineering. It competes in sporting and non-sporting events including fishing, track and field running, cross country, football and netball. Ridgewood School neighbours the New Stone Hill School, a specialist school which was formerly the Anchorage School, and before that, a teacher training college. It has an open playing field towards the back of the site alongside Ridgewood's open P.E. fields, which are both surrounded by open fields used for agriculture. To one side of the playing field is an abandoned railway line which runs through Scawsby and Sprotbrough. In the school's most recent Ofsted report (October 2015), the lower school was labelled 'Good' and the 6th form labelled 'Outstanding'. ==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「Ridgewood School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
