The Key Elements Of Uk School Prospectus And Importance

According to UK Statutory requirements, all schools are obliged to include the following key elements in their prospectus

. These things serve different important purposes, for example:

A prospectus must have a clear mention of the name, address and any telephone number for that school. If a school has its own website, the prospectus must mention the website URL. The email address is important, so that the school authority is easily contactable, however; the physical address is a must to establish the reliability of the school.

The name of any chair in governing body and that of head master/mistress must be in the school prospectus.

The prospectus must contain the moral values and ethics that guide the schools activities. It is important for the parents and students to know the cultural values of a school which they are studying in or will take admission into. A brief about what the vision for the school is should also be mentioned in the school prospectus.

If the school has achieved a specialist status, then there must be a short description of that status in the prospectus.

If under 69 (3) of the SSFA 1998, the school is entitled to have a particular religious identity, a brief description must appear in the prospectus also.

The following information must be printed in the school prospectus:

* If the governing body or the head teacher introduces a new policy as to imparting education to the children or monitoring the students activity, and progress in the class or trying to improve attendance of the pupils, the school authority must mention about this newly adopted policy in the prospectus. It will help the parents to be familiar with the initiatives adopted by the school authority to better the methodologies.

* If the governing body adopts a new policy that will engage the guardians in education and a round-up development of their children, the prospectus must contain this information.

* The prospectus must mention the schools effort to strictly follow the section 49A of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995(5) in regards to equal treatment towards the physically challenged students and prevention of any sort of harassment and discrimination against them within the school campus. Mention of such point assures the guardians of the disabled pupils that the particular school is a safe place to send their children to and the same provides an environment that will help them grow up without any kind of bias.

* UK has a large constellation of people from different country and community. The UK government has taken several initiatives to eliminate racial abuse and discrimination as well as to create a cohesive spirit among different cultural and religious sects. In keeping with this effort and to strengthen it more and more, the UK schools are obliged to follow a policy as per the section 71 of the Race Relations Act 1976(2). According to this policy under the specified law, the school authority must try to promote racial equality.

* The prospectus must contain that the school does not encourage any gender bias, on the contrary creates an equal opportunity for both male and female students.

* If the school adopts any special policy to identify the students with extraordinary merit and take special care for them, it must be clearly mentioned in the prospectus.
