Welcome to Alderman White School & Language College

aws

Alderman White is a member of the White Hills Park Federation. The principle behind the Federation is that each of the schools keeps its separate identity and also all the advantages of a small school. However by working together we also provide all the benefits of a large school, particularly in terms of the increased opportunities which are available to the students.

Alderman White was one of the first schools in Nottinghamshire to achieve specialist language college status in September 2002. Ofsted’s endorsement that the whole school including the wider community had benefited from the Language College initiative helped us to secure re-designation as a specialist school in Spring 2007.

It’s official - Alderman White’s students make outstanding progress

E-mail Print

goldmedalThe DCFS has recently confirmed that Alderman White School & Language College, part of the White Hills Federation of schools, has achieved one of the highest CVA scores in the county. This score measures the progress that students make from the time they start at the school to the time they leave. The high score of 1018 puts Alderman White among the top 5 secondary schools in Nottinghamshire. Helen Redford, Head of School at Alderman White comments that “as a small school, we feel we can offer our students a greater level of care and support.

Being part of the White Hills Park Federation of schools, we are also in a position to offer students a wider range of subjects in Key-Stage 4 .The federation sixth-form, Bramcote College, also has one of the  highest CVA in the Broxtowe area indicating that our sixth-form students make very good progress”. Alderman White is also playing a lead-role locally in the introduction of the new manufacturing diploma.  Last year the school received an ‘outstanding’ from OFSTED for its languages specialism, extended school provision and work with the wider community. The school is one of a few schools in the county where all Key Stage 4 students learn a foreign language and are therefore well-equipped for a more global future. The community-learning programme ranges from Martial Arts classes for primary pupils to ICT courses for adult learners, Mandarin classes for adult-learners and Family Italian.

CommunictaionsThere are some exciting developments happening over the next few months which will help us to improve both how we communicate with you and enable you to access information regarding your children securely online.
Firstly I would like to tell you about Ranger Outpost, which is available via the downloads section on all of our websites (Alderman White, Bramcote Park and White Hills Park Federation). This is a small software program that will allow your child to access their school files and folder from home, work on them and then load them back to their school user area. You just need to download and install the software and then your child can log on with their school username and password.
