Neighbourhood

Bishopsworth

Over 40 people packed into theBishopsworth NeighbourhoodForum meeting on a sunnyevening in early September.

The meeting at St Peters Rise was anopportunity for local people to raise

issues about anything theyd like to

see improved in their area. First they

heard what had happened about the

priorities set by residents at the last

meeting on 1 June.

Feelings ran quite high on the night,

with one resident voicing frustration

about action taken that had not had an

effect, others felt the NP could do

more to let people know about the NF

meetings and another raised concerns

about the voting system. Emily Smithfrom Safer Bristol compiled a list of

ten issues local people would like to

see action on, anything from dog poo

to rogue traders. Residents were then

asked to vote on their priorities.

They came up with a short list of three

issues cycling on pavements,

wheelie bin fires in Withywood Parkand overgrown bushes along

Bedminster Down and by the Elmtree

on Queens Road. The voting system

for deciding priorities will also be

reviewed. At the next meeting

residents will find out what happened

about these priorities. Why not come

along and make your voice heard?

Emily Smith from Safer Bristol says:

These meetings are wider than just

crime and disorder, residents can bring

anything from schools to health

facilities, environmental issues,planning, anything affecting local

people.

Kelly Cook (above) from IlchesterCrescent says:I was broken into on 2 June for the first

time. I came to the last meeting as well

with Norman Bridge, the localNeighbourhood Watch Coordinator.

Norman made a case for making

burglaries in my street a priority and it

was voted as the top priority.

Police presence increased throughout

the day, it did make me feel better, they

patrolled the lanes and alleys. Were

looking into alley gating, but weve got t

wait to hear about funding. Ive asked

my neighbours and its all ready to go.

Its worth coming here to share

experiences I didnt know until I came

here that there had been 14 otherburglaries in my street over a couple

months. Its a good idea to come

along.

Nutritionist Caroline Turner (above)can offer free, non-judgemental,confidential nutritional advice in asafe environment. The sessionstake place in their office to the rear of

the Food For All shop in the

Gatehouse Centre on Hareclive Road

between 10am and 12noon on the first

Tuesday of every month.

If you eat a variety of food you are lesslikely to experience a deficiency of a

particular nutrient, or too much of one,

for example salt says Caroline, weve

got recipe books available to borrow, to

help break out of routine, because

variety is really important in a diet.

So far different local people have found

the service useful, from people wanting

to control their weight to parents

looking at their childs diet: We talk

about ways people can modify what

they eat, so it fits into their life. Its

about taking small steps, workingtowards a long-term solution says

Caroline. Caroline is an associate

member of the Nutrition Society, the

governing body who run the UK

register of professional nutritionists.

The register shows that the

nutritionists are qualified, follow an

evidence-based approach, plus adhere

to the code of conduct and ethics and

are committed to Continuous

Professional Development (CPD).

Caroline says: It is not my position to

judge people, I make no moral judgement. Everyone carries an idea

of what a healthy diet is in their own

mind, people are experts in their own

life so we look at your situation, what

you want to achieve. The session

offers a unique opportunity to talk to

someone about your diet.

At the end of the session there is the

chance to set some goals and

Caroline will be conducting a short

follow-up session either in person or

In a recent Ofsted monitoringvisit, Merchants Academy wasfound to be making goodprogress towards raisingstudent attainment.

Improved behaviour &attendanceIn their first visit to the school since

it became an Academy in

September 2008, inspectors found

that rates of progress were

accelerating, as a direct result of

improved attendance and

behaviour, and rapid improvements

in the quality of teaching.

Out of 23 lessons observed by the

inspectors, teaching and learning

was judged as good or better in

three-quarters of the classes

visited. Inspectors went on to state

that six of the lessons observed

were of outstanding quality and no

inadequate teaching was seen.

High expectationsThe report praised the Academy for

striving to raise standards of

teaching and learning, saying

teachers share excellent

relationships with their students

and set high expectations.The inspectors recognised that as

a result of this focus, students

have developed positive attitudes

towards their learning, and many

students who were previously

disengaged from learning now

enjoy their lessons.

They also saw that successfully

engaging students in their learning

has led to improved attendance,

with students explaining that they

are far more inclined to attendregularly, because they really enjoy

their learning and feel safe.

Importantly, when the inspectors

spoke to Academy students, they

MAKINGGOOD

PROGRESS

MERCHANTS

ACADEMY

found them to feel happy and safe at

school. Their report noted that students

behaviour is largely good, and bullying

has reduced significantly and students

feel confident that they can easily

access support from staff or peers ifany occurs. One student described the

Academy as a good place to be.

Sixth FormInspectors found that the establishment

of an Academy sixth form, combined

with improved careers guidance, has

been highly successful in raising

students aspirations for the future: the

introduction of post-16 curriculum

programmes is successfully addressing

the need to reduce the number of youngpeople within the local community who

previously left the predecessor school

with no plans for future education or

employment.

Raised self-esteemThe report showed that the rising

standards at Merchants Academy

have had a positive effect on the local

community, with local people

commenting on how smart thestudents look in their uniforms. The

Ofsted inspectors noted how this has

raised the self-esteem of not only the

students but the whole community.

Indeed, it was recognised that

students have started to make a

strong contribution to the community

beyond the school, for example,

entertaining local senior citizens,

producing a short film about the local

area, and participating in athleticsfestivals with nearby primary schools.

Merchants Academy Open Events Thursday 23& Saturday 25 September.

This summer an increasing number of students achieved 5 or more GCSEs at

grade C or above and the vast majority achieved or exceeded their targets.

endless friendlies and even come third

tournament. Different members of the

team have taken on enormousresponsibility as they have grown

together. From recruiting one another

in the beginning and designing their

own logo, to challenging and coaching

each other when needed, the Hartcliffe

Saints have defiantly worked hard to

be where they are today.The ENOUGH youth project came on

SBCH are working on their patient and

public involvement plans with a public

re-launch event at Knowle West Health

Park on 13 May which was an

opportunity for members of the publicand staff to come along and help shape

There was a drop-in session for people

to meet the team, ask questions and

view displays, followed by a more

formal session with presentations on

hospital progress plus a talk on the

community perspective from two lay

members of the SBCH public

local people is that they want the
