Everyone was seeing spots – or was covered in them – at BVC. But it was all in a good cause as staff and students did their bit for Children in Need. Individuals and groups could pose for a photo with the day’s special guest Pudsey Bear to raise muchneeded funds for children in the UK.

Issue 3

Our new partners in education Trust partners are now bringing their expertise into Bottisham Village College to enrich the learning and widen the experiences of all its students. The College changed its status in September from a community school to a Foundation Trust school with the key purpose of supporting the education of students and promoting community cohesion. The College has teamed up with seven Partners – Cambridge Building Society, Cambridgeshire and Peterborough NHS Foundation Trust, Faculty of Education University of Cambridge, The Marshall Group of Companies, The National Stud, Red 2 Green and the John Lewis Partnership – to form the Bottisham Educational Trust. Since then, there has been a series of meetings to decide how best the Partners can actively participate in the life of the College. Staff have been asked their views and have come up with a range of ideas under such headings as enterprise, aspirations and future careers, health and well-being, managing money and ethics. There are plans for Partners to take part in assemblies and PSHE Days as well as providing speakers, role play scenarios and work experience across a range of curriculum areas. continues on Page 2
