Press release
Ofsted finds too few Cumbria secondary schools are doing well
Ofsted publishes the outcome letter of its inspection of 17 secondary schools in Cumbria.
The inspections of Cumbria secondary schools were conducted by Her Majesty’s Inspectors from 1 November to 20 December 2013. They were carried out because of concerns about the poor performance of a number of secondary schools in the county.
Of the 14 secondary schools inspected under section 5:
-
none was judged outstanding
-
three were judged good (one of these was already at this standard and two declined from being outstanding)
-
five schools were judged requires improvement. In two of these schools, the quality of leadership was good but in the others it requires improvement
-
one school has serious weaknesses and had declined from being good
-
five schools, including the pupil referral unit, were placed into special measures
One 6th form college, inspected under section 5, was judged requires improvement, having declined from previously being a good standard.
Of the 3 schools and academies inspected under section 8, two were making adequate progress. In the other school, progress was insufficient.
Inspectors found GCSE results for children at the age of 16 have been significantly below the national average in the last 2 years - with the gap widening. Of particular concern is school performance in coastal and urban areas, and the low achievement of students from disadvantaged backgrounds.
While inspectors found pockets of good teaching in almost all the schools, and signs of improving leadership and better governance in a small number, there were common weaknesses across many of the schools. This included poor achievement in maths and English for those from disadvantaged backgrounds, particularly boys; too little challenge in lessons for more-able students; and weak leadership of teaching and performance management of teachers.
Michael Cladingbowl HMI, Ofsted’s Regional Director for the North West said:
These inspection findings raise serious concerns about the quality of secondary education in Cumbria where too few secondary schools are good. And the picture is not improving.
There is too little evidence to suggest that the council is providing an effective and shared strategy to improve the quality of education across the county. This needs to be urgently addressed. The local authority needs to provide greater challenge and support and extend partnership working.
Ofsted will closely monitor the education provision in Cumbria and we will continue to work with schools and the local authority to ensure a higher proportion of young people are provided with a good standard of education.
The letter sent to Cumbria local authority has been published online

Andrew Johnson, Her Majesty’s Senior Inspector for North West will be available for interviews on Monday 10 February 2014. Please call Ofsted’s Press Office for interview requests.

After watching "Rat Race" last week, I noticed my cheeks were sore and realized that, when not laughing aloud, I had held a grin for virtually all of the film's 112 minutes. Saturday night, I attended another sneak preview for the movie and damned if I didn't enjoy it as much the second time as the first. "Rat Race" is a great goofy delight, a dandy mix of energetic performances, inspired sight gags and flat-out silliness. Hands down, this is the most fun film of the summer.
The movie begins with zippy retro-style opening credits that look like they were torn straight out of a '60s slapstick comedy, featuring animated photos of the cast attached to herky-jerky bodies bounding around the screen. Then comes the setup.
Donald Sinclair (John Cleese), the extremely rich owner of the Venetian Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, enjoys concocting unusual bets for his high rolling clients. To that end, he places a half dozen very special tokens in his slot machines. Gathering together the lucky token holders, he explains, "Today you have a chance to play a game where the odds of winning are one in six." The competition is simple: Each contestant gets a key that opens a locker in Silver City, N.M., containing $2 million in cash. There is a transmitter in every key, so that Sinclair and his cronies can keep track of who is ahead. The race has no rules – whichever contestant reaches the locker first gets the money.
Since it would be wrong to spoil any of the jokes, let's use the next few paragraphs to profile the racers.
Decked out in flashy, trashy clothing and sporting big hair, Vera Baker (Whoopi Goldberg) is in town to reunite with the daughter she gave up for adoption as a baby. She finds that grown-up Merrill (Lanai Chapman) is erudite, conservative and more than a little bit wary of this stranger trying to jump into her life. Thrown together, it becomes clear that both women share a fierce competitive nature.
Owen Templeton (Cuba Gooding Jr.) is currently the most hated man in America. An NFL referee, he cost gamblers all over the country enormous amounts of money by blowing a call in a high-profile game. After escaping from a vengeful cab driver, Owen gets to New Mexico by masquerading as the driver for a busload of Lucy Ricardo impersonators heading to a convention.
Mr. Pollini (Rowan Atkinson) is a cheerful, odd little Italian man on holiday in America. He also is narcoleptic and falls asleep at the most inopportune times. Pollini hitches a ride with Zack (Wayne Knight), a hyper-tense ambulance driver carrying a human heart across country for a transplant operation.
Randy Pear (Jon Lovitz) promised his wife Beverly (Kathy Najimy) and two kids a fun-filled vacation in Las Vegas. Fearful that Beverly will be angry over his involvement in the race, he claims that he must travel to Silver City for a job interview. Beverly insists the family stay together, so they hop in the mini-van and tear off into the desert.
 Blaine has a speech impediment due to his poorly self-done tongue piercing, and Duane is the only person who can come close to understanding him. The boys will stop at nothing to reach their goal.
Finally, Nick Shaffer (Breckin Meyer) is a no-nonsense lawyer-in-training who recruits helicopter pilot Tracy Faucet (Amy Smart) for the journey. At first glance, they seem blandly wholesome, but all that changes when Tracy buzzes the home of her boyfriend Shawn (Dean Cain) and spies him swimming with another woman.
Director Jerry Zucker ("Airplane," "Ghost") leaps from racer to racer, periodically returning to Las Vegas where Sinclair and Mr. Grisham (Dave Thomas), his personality-impaired right hand man, continue cooking up bizarre bets for the gamblers. As with any Zucker production, a few jokes fall flat, but the momentum of the comedy zooms past those missteps. High points for me include a bit involving Kathy Bates as a roadside squirrel salesperson and an intricately set up gag that carries Jon Lovitz and family from a bizarre museum to an outdoor rally, with an utterly tasteless and screamingly funny pay-off.
Had I been part of the filmmaking team, I would have ditched a joke where a key is dropped into a baby's clothes and instead had the key get lost in the cleavage of a dozing society matron. It would have drawn the same laugh without the squirm-inducing hint of child molestation. I also would have selected a different band for a concert sequence. My God, do we really need yet another movie with Smash Mouth performing "All Star?"
But enough carping. "Rat Race" is a riot, with terrific no-holds-barred performances from the diverse cast. See it, see it again and when the DVD comes out, buy it, because a movie this hilarious will surely have outtakes to die for.

Arrays.asList()
with at most one argument.
Such calls could be replaced
with Collections.singletonList()
, Collections.emptyList()
,
or List.of()
on JDK 9 and later, which will save some memory.
In particular, Collections.emptyList()
and List.of()
with no arguments
always return a shared instance,
while Arrays.asList()
with no arguments creates a new object every time it's called.
Note: the lists returned by Collections.singletonList()
and List.of()
are immutable,
while the list returned Arrays.asList()
allows calling the set()
method.
This may break the code in rare cases.
Example:
List<String> empty = Arrays.asList();
List<String> one = Arrays.asList("one");
After the quick-fix is applied:
List<String> empty = Collections.emptyList();
List<String> one = Collections.singletonList("one");

Long-awaited restoration work begins at Grade II listed rectory in Clifton Village
It was sold at auction back in 2004
by Phoebe RamWork to restore a historic rectory in Nottinghamshire has finally got the go-ahead after a 15-year wait.
The Old Rectory in Clifton Village is a Grade II listed building and former care home. The building fell into disrepair after it sold at auction in 2004.
Despite some works, the site had been targeted by vandals and as time went on residents were concerned restoration would never get started.
But as of Monday, November 18, work has begun to transform the rectory into four separate homes called The Gatehouse, The Lodge, The Cottage and The Rectory, each with their own entrance and garden.
Three new luxury homes will also be built within the grounds, called Beech House, Cedar House and Oak House, which will be accessed by a gated private drive.
Once the home to the Rector of Clifton, the property dates back to the mid-1700s and is a typical Georgian-style building with south facing garden elevations.
The property has the original square stairwell with wooden cantilever stairs and large purpose-built rooms. It has a prominent position in Clifton Village.
Midlands contractor G F Tomlinson has taken on the construction of the scheme, with works due to complete in autumn 2020, alongside CBP Architects and Haart Estate Agents.
Speaking after the launch event, Pat Rice, chairwoman of the Clifton Village Residents' Association said: "Progress has been delayed after experts needed to assess the building for bats. But permission was granted last month and residents are so relieved.
"We've been watching it sitting there for years as it deteriorated through vandalism.
"To see it be neglected all these years was truly heart-rending as Georgian designs are typically attractive.
"It's going to be a fantastic transformation and the contractors have said they are prepared to engage with the village to keep us updated.
"It's been good for us to meet with councillors, our local MP, the architects, contractors and marketing teams so we can see the plans.
"We're all very impressed and it should be finished to a high standard by this time next year."

Custom Django Serializer
29 Jul 2018This is a story of how I faced issues with serializers of django-rest-framework and how I overcame the issues.
The Issue
Normally if one is using django-rest-framework
we tend to use the serializer classes provided as well.
A simple serializer example from the docs of django-rest-framework
.
class CommentSerializer(serializers.Serializer):
email = serializers.EmailField()
content = serializers.CharField(max_length=200)
created = serializers.DateTimeField()
def create(self, validated_data):
return Comment(**validated_data)
def update(self, instance, validated_data):
instance.email = validated_data.get('email', instance.email)
instance.content = validated_data.get('content', instance.content)
instance.created = validated_data.get('created', instance.created)
return instance
# Its not mandatory to implement create and update methods, there are default implementations.
Then you might come across a ModelSerializer
. An example of a ModelSerializer
as mentioned from here.
class AccountSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
class Meta:
model = Account
fields = ('id', 'account_name', 'users', 'created')
Needless to say ModelSerializers
were much neater and nicer to use if your serializers were supposed to update databases. It allowed adding of related fields as well and specifying/excluding fields as well.
class AccountSerializer(serializers.ModelSerializer):
url = serializers.CharField(source='get_absolute_url', read_only=True)
groups = serializers.PrimaryKeyRelatedField(many=True)
exclude = ('nickname',)
class Meta:
model = Account
For quite some time I extensively used this as it also had an validator which worked quite well.
serializer = CommentSerializer(data={'email': 'foobar', 'content': 'baz'})
serializer.is_valid()
# False
serializer.errors
# {'email': [u'Enter a valid e-mail address.'], 'created': [u'This field is required.']}
However, despite all the goodies one of the problems I faced frequently were:
I have to write a new
Serializer
class everytime I create a new model, even though I will mostly exclude same fields.Most APIs involved updating multiple models where one would be a foreign key in another. This is disadvantageous since
serializer.data
returns adict
which contains the primary key id and I have make another db operation to fetch the model object which would be required in the next update as a foreign key.I already had a layer called
dbapi
which would contain classes on a per model level. There were methods for specific queries to fetch the model obj which was again a lot of repetition. This layer was required because even for fetching queries or updating any object using serializers I needed to fetch the model object for which I had to query via some id. Having two mechanisms for the same layer seemed inconsistent and not a great idea.
The Solution
Initiatially I thought of inheriting the Serializer
class but that was not simple because the Meta
class was not automatically inherited and [2] and [3] still remained unresolved.
I decided to ensure the very classes at the dbapi
layer can be used to make queries with very minimal change.
First, I created a base Serializer class. It took a dictionary as a param, iterated over the model fields and removed non attributes from the dict, ran some django validations and then finally saved it,
class AbstractBaseSerializer(metaclass=ABCMeta):
@property
@abstractmethod
def model(self):
raise NotImplementedError('missing model!')
def _iterate_fields(self, kwargs):
fields = [f.name for f in self.model._meta.get_fields()]
for k, v in kwargs.items():
if k in fields or k.split('__')[0] in fields:
yield k, v
def _clean_save_object(self, obj):
obj.full_clean()
obj.save()
return obj
def _get_clean_data(self, kwargs):
clean_data = {}
for k, v in self._iterate_fields(kwargs):
clean_data[k] = v
if not clean_data:
raise ModelOperationError(
INVALID_PARAMS.format(self.model.__name__))
return clean_data
def create_obj(self, kwargs, **extra):
try:
clean_data = {}
for k, v in self._iterate_fields(kwargs):
clean_data[k] = v
obj = self.model(**clean_data)
return self._clean_save_object(obj)
except IntegrityError:
msg = FAILED_OPS.format('save', self.model.__name__)
self._raise_error(msg, **extra)
def update_obj(self, obj, kwargs, **extra):
try:
for k, v in self._iterate_fields(kwargs):
setattr(obj, k, v)
return self._clean_save_object(obj)
except (TypeError, ValueError, ValidationError):
msg = FAILED_OPS.format('update', self.model.__name__)
self._raise_error(msg, **extra)
def get_object(self, kwargs, **extra):
clean_data = self._get_clean_data(kwargs)
try:
return self.model.objects.get(**clean_data)
except self.model.DoesNotExist:
msg = OBJ_NOT_FOUND.format(self.model.__name__)
self._raise_error(msg, **extra)
def filter_objects(self, kwargs):
clean_data = self._get_clean_data(kwargs)
return self.model.objects.filter(**clean_data)
@staticmethod
def _raise_error(msg, **kwargs):
if not kwargs.get('fail_silently', False):
raise ModelOperationError(msg)
And then in my existing dbapi
layer class, I just needed to add inheritance with specifying a particular model the class is tied to. Since the classes were already on a model level it did not require a lot of effort.
class CommentDbIO(AbstractBaseSerializer):
@property
def model(self):
return Comment
Doing it this way then hugely reduced my code required to say getting a model object for comment by email. A sample example would be:
>> obj = CommentDbIO().get_object({'email': 'foo@bar'})
This solved all code repetition issues, returned an object and also created a single point of interaction for db queries. However, the ability to have serialized data was also an useful thing especially when returning json
via APIs. While I did not require it at that point, it could be achieved with a slight modification to our Model class.
All my model classes all inherited from a base class for some common fields like created_at
, modified_at
, etc.
I used django's serializers module to serialize the model object to json format.
import json
from django.core import serializers
class AbstractModel(models.Model):
created_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now_add=True, verbose_name="Created At")
modified_at = models.DateTimeField(auto_now=True, verbose_name="Last Modified At")
class Meta:
abstract = True
def to_json(self, fields=None):
data = json.loads(serialize("json", (self,)))[0]
clean_data = {}
if fields:
for k, v in data.items():
if k not in fields:
clean_data[k] = v
else:
clean_data = data.pop('fields')
clean_data['id'] = data.pop('pk')
return clean_data
So finally if you have the model object, you can simply do obj.to_json()
and also pass optional parameters if required.
Let me know if you have any questions or have a better way of achieving this same target.

Loop Version
The first iteration of the loop body
can be made to happen by initializing
chars
to "yes."
This is slighly awkward.
import java.io.* ; class SqrtCalc { public static void main( String[] args ) throws IOException { String chars; double x; BufferedReader stdin = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader(System.in) ); chars = "yes" ; // enable first iteration of the loop while ( chars.equals( "yes" ) ) { System.out.print("Enter a number-->"); chars = stdin.readLine(); x = Double.parseDouble( chars ); System.out.println("Square root of" + x + " is " + Math.sqrt( x ) ); System.out.print("Do you wish to continue? (yes or no) -->"); chars = stdin.readLine(); } } }


Overview
A type is a mutually exclusive change to an element. Types may require different html structures to work correctly, or expect different content.
Content
An icon menu might expect you to include glyphs instead of text to be formatted correctly
HTML Differences
Types may also require different html. For example, a tiered menu needs html specified for a sub menu to display itself correctly


Speech
Transcript of Sir Michael Wilshaw's keynote speech.
Good morning everyone. It’s great to be here at this famous footballing citadel and in the company of so many school leaders from across the north east region.
As a football fan, I will resist any temptation to dwell on the current fortunes of the 2 Premier League teams in the north east. At least they can take consolation from having some of the best supporters in the world. Their pride and passion are characteristics shared by people right across this region, something I will touch on in a few moments.
It might interest you to know that London East End lad Jermain Defoe, currently turning out in the red and white stripes of the team down the road from here, is a former pupil of mine. As you can imagine, I taught him everything he knows and I’ve always kept a close eye on his career. Indeed, he dropped by to see me at Ofsted headquarters last week and ended up offering me a job as his personal assistant.
While I ponder over a career switch, I’d like to say how pleased I was to be invited to speak at your conference and I’d like to start by paying heartfelt tribute to you as leaders of our education system. Whether you are running a local authority school, a free school or an academy, you’re the ones firmly in the driving seat, leading change and influencing education policy in a way that’s never happened before.
And it is people like you who are improving the life chances of young people up and down the country. Our schools, for the most part, are far better places than they were 30, 20, even 10 years ago.
The results of this summer’s exams underline the transformation that is taking place. As I said in a speech last month to mark the start of the new academic year, better leadership combined with political focus, greater autonomy and robust accountability are having a positive impact and raising overall standards to way beyond where they were when I started headship back in 1985.
However, I also cautioned against getting too carried away, citing 3 key issues that need to be addressed before we can start to compete with the top educational performers in the OECD group.
Firstly, there remain unacceptably wide variations in performance both across and within the regions of England – a postcode lottery that consigns some children to substandard schools while affording other children with similar abilities and from similar backgrounds the opportunity to fulfil their potential.
Secondly, as I first highlighted in my Annual Report last December, a gap has emerged between primary and secondary school performance – and the indications are this is getting wider.
Primaries in the main are continuing to forge ahead because of better leadership from headteachers and governing bodies. This quality of teaching has been steadily improving and outcomes at key stage 1 and key stage 2 are now the best we have seen.
By contrast, progress at secondary level has stalled. We still have far too many secondaries that are not building on progress made at primary school, that are paying insufficient attention to transition from key stage 2 to 3, that are ignoring the needs of the most able.
And thirdly, as a nation we are still blighted by the long tail of underachievement by the poorest children, especially in our secondary schools and among our White British communities.
It’s probably fair to say the North East epitomises these over-lapping challenges more than any other region.
Let me read out some statistics to explain what I mean.
Let me give you a really good example of how good your primary schools are.
The Times newspaper ran an article last Saturday which showed how the success of primary schools in Redcar and Cleveland is countering the effects of economic depression and poverty, exemplified by the recent closure of the steel plant.
Here’s what the paper said.
“Only a tiny number of the most affluent London boroughs did better than Redcar and Cleveland in this year’s SATs. It rose from 73rd in the country 3 years ago, to 26th in 2013 and 18th last year.
“Some of its wards are steeped in poverty, low aspiration and generations of unemployment. But its schools have a culture of no excuses, demanding high standards from all children, no matter what their background. Results have vastly improved since all headteachers began working together in clusters, poring over results, sharing expertise, having frank discussions about each other’s strengths and weaknesses and taking responsibility for all children in the borough.”
All I can do this morning is add to this praise and commendation. However, this level of progress in the primary sector is by no means unique to Redcar and Cleveland.
By marked contrast:
A third of the region’s secondary school pupils (around 40,000 in total) attend schools that are less than good. In some local authorities the figure is as high as two thirds.
Barely 1 in 5 state school pupils in this region achieved the Ebacc in 2014. In some local authorities, only 13% did so.
Poor children in this region don’t do particularly well across any of the different phases, but the attainment gap is particularly stark in secondary schools.
Yet, educational under-achievement should not be seen as inevitable. It’s important to continually ask why so many children – especially poorer children and those of secondary school age – are being let down in this part of the world.
It would be defeatist to think they are somehow pre-destined to do less well than their peers in other parts of the country.
Of course, in the wake of bad news like Redcar, it would be foolish to deny that economic factors and the decline of traditional industries present more difficult challenges for this region than other parts of the country.
But neither should these challenges be offered up as an excuse for poor performance.
I’ve never yet met a youngster – and I’m sure you haven’t – who said ‘I come from a post-industrial community. Please have low expectations of me.’ I’ve never met a youngster who said ‘I am a child of the rural poor. Please have low expectations of me.’ I’ve never met a youngster who said ‘I live in a coastal town. Please have low expectations of me.’
All my experience has taught me that children, no matter where they live, turn up on their first day of school full of hope and optimism for the future. After all, children are children are children, whether they come from Newcastle or London. The children I taught in Bermondsey nearly 50 years ago were very much the same as the children I taught in Hackney 4 years ago.
What makes the difference for children is the culture and expectations of the school – a culture that is always determined by the quality of its leadership.
That is why the people here today are so important – leaders of our schools whose approach to school management has got to be always optimistic, always confident, always ambitious, even though times may be tough.
Never resign yourself to an attitude of ‘this is the way it is and always will be.’ If you have that mentality, then your staff will too. And that, inevitably, will affect the progress of the children in your charge.
My experience of London schools spanning over half a century has taught me how things can change and improve. Negative attitudes were all too rife for much of that period. As a teacher and headteacher, I well remember the politics of despair and fatalism – London was just too complex, London was just too diverse, London was just too poor for anything to be done.
Well just look at London now. The remarkable transformation in school standards and pupil outcomes that we’ve witnessed in our capital city – where levels of deprivation and the proportion of children entitled to free school meals are broadly on a par with this region – demonstrates what can be achieved when there is a collective will and determination to bring about change.
And it’s not as though the picture here in the north east is unremittingly gloomy. This is a region that has a lot going for it. It has a uniquely strong collective regional identity and ties that bind communities together in a way you just don’t see in more fragmented places like London. Most important of all are its people who are rightly held up as the north east’s most precious asset.
The pride and passion that we see every weekend on your football terraces can also be found in your corridors and classrooms. I certainly remember visiting schools in this part of the world during my time as an additional inspector and being struck by how beguiling and spirited the children generally were.
I’m hardly alone in recognising this. It’s surely no accident that multi-nationals like Nissan and Hitachi have chosen to invest millions in this area. The Chancellor, meanwhile, talks about this region’s place at the heart of his much trumpeted vision for a Northern Powerhouse.
It goes without saying that you have a huge part to play in ensuring this region’s young people have the qualifications, skills and attitudes to take advantage of this economic and political vision.
You don’t have to look to London for good examples – just learn from the plenty of good practice here, in this room and elsewhere. There are schools dotted across this region that are managing to buck the trend on all those indicators I’ve already mentioned.
Last year Ofsted identified a group of 12 primary schools in the north east which had consistently closed the gap between disadvantaged pupils and others. Her Majesty’s Inspectors worked with these schools to pinpoint the key actions they had taken to ensure all pupils were reaching their potential. Four common themes emerged that accounted for their success:
These original 12 schools have since been working in partnership with other primary schools where the attainment gap has remained stubbornly wide. The early results of this school-to-school support are encouraging and there are plans to roll the programme out to the secondary sector.
It has to be said, however, that my inspectors currently find it more difficult to identify examples of secondary schools that are doing well by their more disadvantaged pupils.
There are undoubtedly pockets of good practice such as Cardinal Hume Catholic School, All Saints Academy and Outwood Academy Aklam, which have all put in place effective strategies to ensure the attainment gaps between free school meal students and their peers is minimal.
But these are relatively rare exceptions that rather seem to prove the rule.
So the question becomes ever more urgent. What can be done to raise ambitions and improve outcomes, particularly in your secondary schools, in order to end the depressing cycle of under-achievement, particularly for our poorest children?
Certainly political backing at both a national and local level is an important ingredient in driving up standards. Elected leaders like Jules Pipe, the Mayor of Hackney, have been instrumental in raising school standards across London by holding the feet of officers and headteachers to the fire and maintaining a clear focus on the achievement of the most disadvantaged pupils.
So I welcome efforts to get the North East Schools Challenge off the ground, although I know there are frustrations about the pace of progress. I’d certainly echo the plea of the impatient Newcastle head who I saw in the local press was imploring less talk and more action to deliver the change that’s required.
Teacher supply is another issue that I know is exercising many of you in this room today. As I highlighted in my last annual report, well publicised shortages in many key subjects are being exacerbated because new recruits are not necessarily going where they are needed most.
The freedom that good and outstanding schools now have to take more control of teacher training, for example through School Direct, has been a positive step. But it is vital that school-based training partnerships are evenly distributed so they adequately serve all parts of the country, including the more disadvantaged and geographically isolated parts of this region.
Market forces alone won’t achieve this so I will continue to press the government to develop a clearer and more centrally driven strategy to make it happen.
I also want Ofsted to be part of the solution.
As Chief Inspector, I have always believed in the power and influence of inspection to improve standards. It’s what lay behind my decision 3 years ago to move the organisation to a regional structure.
We now have teams of knowledgeable HMI and Senior HMI, led by a Regional Director, in 8 regions of the country. They are well placed to shine a much sharper spotlight on strengths and weaknesses in each region and to both challenge and support individual institutions, multi-academy trusts and local authorities to improve.
This is having a galvanising effect. Take Northumberland, whose school improvement support came in for some stinging criticism when we carried out a series of focused inspections 2 years ago. This proved to be a watershed moment. Since then, the local authority has overhauled its approach. It has issued a series of warning notices and is placing a much stronger emphasis on leadership and teaching. It is also brokering more school-to-school support across the county.
As a result, green shoots of recovery are beginning to emerge with a 4% increase in GCSE attainment this year and some impressive results at key stage 2.
We’ve seen something similar in Middlesbrough, whose school improvement support is now making solid progress after inspectors found it to be ineffective in January of last year.
HMI are now staying with under-performing schools and monitoring their performance more closely than ever before. This is undoubtedly having a positive impact. In the last 3 years, 63% of schools in this region judged to require improvement have gone on to achieve a good or outstanding rating on re-inspection.
At the end of the day, however, the politicians, the town hall officers and yes, even Ofsted, can only do so much.
As I’ve already said, the key to unlocking the potential of children and young people across this region ultimately lies with you as school leaders.
So allow me to ask you some pertinent questions, starting with this one.
Why have so few of the high performing and well respected academy chains gained a foothold in this region?
Now I’m not one of those who regards academisation as a panacea. It takes far more than a new nameplate on the gates to transform standards. But I do subscribe to the view that greater competition and diversity encourages system-wide improvement. It’s also hard to deny that well-established sponsored academies have made particularly impressive progress in many deprived parts of the country.
Have you perhaps been resistant to change and slow to embrace challenge from beyond the regional education establishment?
Whilst you ponder that one, here are a few more questions for you to consider.
As a leader, are you standing firm against the insidious anti-learning, low aspiration culture that often pervades non-immigrant communities in this country?
Are you the type of leader who refuses to accept the status quo or cultural norms and, indeed, fights against them? The type of leader who doesn’t worry that confiscating mobile phones or banning chewing gum could infringe human rights? The type of leader who is not afraid to challenge those parents who refuse to support the school?
 The type of leader, for example, who won’t allow children to take textbooks home because you don’t trust them to bring them back the next day? The type of leader who walks into a classroom and nothing much changes, even when the youngsters are misbehaving? The type of leader who uses the phrase ‘behaviour management’ rather than ‘school discipline’ because you believe a child’s conduct is something that always has to be negotiated?
Finally, are you doing enough to equip your pupils with the skills, the character and the attitudes that make them well prepared for the world of work and capable of meeting the needs of local employers?
It was telling that a recent survey of firms here in the north east warned that engineering, construction and manufacturing companies were desperate to fill vacancies but couldn’t find the right people.
As the CBI regional director was quoted as saying: “We must make sure our education and skills system is truly responsive to the needs of business and that young people receive much better careers advice if we are to propel the north east economy forward in the years ahead.”
Wise words indeed and ones that all schools must urgently heed.
I hope you will reflect on the questions I’ve posed and accept the challenge that lies behind them in the spirit that it’s intended.
As Chief Inspector, it’s my lot in life to deliver difficult messages and to focus on where things need to improve. But as I said at the outset of this speech, there is an awful lot to be positive about. And the credit for what’s been achieved so far lies mainly with you.
What’s more, I know from my encounters with many of you individually just how passionate and dedicated you are about improving the life chances of the young people entrusted to your care.
As long as the right backing is there for you from the politicians and from the world of business and commerce, I believe you are well placed to overcome the challenges that I’ve laid out today.
I’d like to end by wishing you well and making a promise that you can count on my continued support.
Thank you for listening.

Notational conventions
Throughout this reference documentation we use some notational conventions designed to keep the documentation concise yet understandable. Please read the following carefully.
Array notation
We allow ourselves to refer to the -th element of an array by . The size of an array (either provided by a member function size
() or clear from context) is denoted .
The home space
Many functions and member functions take an argument home of type Space&
. The home space serves as manager to many operations used by variables, views, propagators, spaces, and so on. It provides services such as failure management, propagation control, memory management, and so on. To keep the documentation concise the home space is not documented for functions and member functions.
Sharing in update and copy
In member functions that either copy or update an object during cloning, an argument share of type bool
is available. This Boolean value controls whether during cloning the data structure at hand will be shared among the newly created cloned space and the original or whether two independent copies are created. Some functions (such as copy
for spaces (Gecode::Space) or copy
for propagators (Gecode::Propagator) also feature this argument. Here it is used to pass on the Boolean value to other datastructures used inside spaces or propagators.
The actual value the share argument has is defined by the search engine: when a search engine uses the clone member function of a space it decides whether sharing is to be used in the cloning of the space or not. If the search engine is single-threaded, it will use full sharing (share will be true). Only if the search engine uses concurrency or parallelism with more than a single thread, it will pass false as value. This means that by not sharing data structures among spaces which are to be used in different threads, all parts of Gecode but the actual search engine do not need to provide concurrency control.
As examples for data structures which are sensitive to sharing, consider Gecode::SharedArray, Gecode::IntSet, and Gecode::DFA.

The MeasurementCollectionController (often called MCC) is the central “overlord” class responsible for tracking all
registered collectors and arbiters, wrapping collectors around measured tests in the correct order,
and invoking the measured code block.
Note that all collectors must be stopped in the reverse order from which they were started to maximize
measurement accuracy and avoid mistakenly capturing any overheard from other collectors.
The multiple circles of hell serve as a useful mental model: each circle represents a collector
that is started/stopped in a specific order.
MCC is the lowest-level api we provide, and it is possible to use this class directly:
importcom.workday.warp.controllers.DefaultMeasurementCollectionControllerimportorg.junit.jupiter.api.{Test, TestInfo}
classExampleSpec {
// this example manages the measurement lifecycle directly and thus uses @Test instead of @WarpTest
@Testdef mcc(testInfo:TestInfo):Unit = {
val mcc =newDefaultMeasurementCollectionController(testId = testInfo)
mcc.registerCollector(newSomeMeasurementCollector)
// start all measurement collectors prior to running the experiment
mcc.beginMeasurementCollection()
// run your experiment code
someExperiment()
// stop all measurement collectors, persist results, other cleanup
mcc.endMeasurementCollection()
// alternate signature that allows for manually specifying elapsed test time and a test timing threshold
// mcc.endMeasurementCollection(elapsedTime = 5.seconds, threshold = 6.seconds)
}
}
The DSL encapsulates the above sequence of operations in a more convenient API and provides some higher-level
configuration options, such as distributing multiple test invocations onto a threadpool.

''Return to Me'' is the kind of film I normally shred with the enthusiasm of a puppy that just snagged your favorite slipper. The romantic comedy is unabashedly sentimental, with plot contrivances galore, stereotypical supporting players, overdone accents, nuns on bicycles and an adorable gorilla. As if all that wasn't enough, it even features Jim Belushi, whose very presence is enough to cause most productions to implode. But from beginning to end, I found the film utterly charming. Hell, I even liked Belushi.
Oh, what an awkward position for a jaded critic to be in.
First time director Bonnie Hunt (who also co-wrote the script and plays a key role) casts David Duchovny and Minnie Driver in her fairy tale. Duchovny plays Bob, a Chicago architect who loses his zoologist wife Elizabeth (Joely Richardson) in a car wreck. Minnie Driver is Grace, a barmaid on the waiting list for a healthy heart who receives a second lease on life thanks to Elizabeth.
Months later, Bob wanders into the funky little restaurant run by Grace's Irish grandfather (Carroll O'Connor) and Italian great-uncle (Robert Loggia). The old boys play matchmaker, leading to the inevitable pairing of Bob and Grace. Of course, the road to romance is rocky. Bob still grieves the loss of Elizabeth and Grace is so painfully self-conscious of her surgical scar that she's afraid to get intimate with anyone. Cautiously, they begin the courtship ritual.
This may read like typical cutesy-poo fare, but that's only because it is. And there's more. When O'Connor (who uses an Irish accent straight out of a ''Lucky Charms'' commercial), Loggia and company aren't hovering over the couple like mother hens, they spend their time exchanging good-natured insults and debating the merits of vintage singers. Going into sugar shock, yet? Well, try this on for size. The ape Elizabeth worked with had a special gesture he used only with her. When Grace visits the zoo, he cozies up to her right away. How cosmic.
The film has a fair share of chunky shtick as well. Bob's best pal (David Alan Grier) fixes him up for an evening out, leading to some extreme overacting from Bob's boorish date. There's also a running gag over Jim Belushi's efforts to stop swearing in front of his kids.
I could go on, but you get the idea. There's enough sweetness here for a dozen Meg Ryan movies, but the damned thing still got to me.
Why?
Part of the reason is Minnie Driver and David Duchovny. Driver projects a disarming vulnerability and, at long last, Duchovny drops his ''X-Files'' ironic cool and plays a guy who smiles and laughs and cries like an actual human being. Together, they made me care about the well-being of their characters.
Another reason is Bonnie Hunt and Jim Belushi. As Grace's closest friends, they make a dandy couple. Hunt's tongue is as sharp as ever, but nicely tempered by her nurturing qualities. As for Belushi, after screwing up a long series of leading man roles, he is very likable in a supporting turn, playing an affable lug quite comfortable in his skin. A scene where he does an impromptu belly dance for Grace and his wife is funny and appealing. Few other actors could successfully pull that off.
But the biggest reason is Bonnie Hunt's direction. She establishes and maintains a fairy tale sensibility that makes the convoluted plotting easy to tolerate. Hunt obviously conveyed her storybook approach to the supporting cast, convincing them to go for magic over credibility.
The magic worked for me. I enjoyed spending a couple of hours in a world where loving relatives dote over your every move, where caring friends are there when you need them, and where romance triumphs over all.
There you have it. ''Return to Me'' is a cavalcade of corn, but I had a ball. So sue me. Incidentally, I plan to keep this review handy from now on. Whenever anyone fires off an irate letter accusing me of being a cold-hearted bastard because I ragged on the latest mawkish offering from Robin Williams, I'll send them a copy of this and let them choke on it.

Zelensky to students: Time to replace "these MPs"
The forum was broadcast live on the Facebook page of the Office of the President of Ukraine.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says it is time for the Verkhovna Rada, Ukraine's parliament, to change and invites young people to become lawmakers.
"The country should be the way you are – fresh," he told students participating in the 'Ukraine is growing with me' Forum on November 20, when speaking about the Verkhovna Rada of the current convocation.
"[There should be] something new, something very interesting. Therefore, please, Dasha [Zelensky has addressed one of the students], bring people like you to the Verkhovna Rada. Don't tell anyone – but it's time to change these [Members of Parliament], too," he said, jokingly.
The forum was broadcast live on the Facebook page of the Office of the President of Ukraine.
As UNIAN previously reported, Zelensky considers the adoption of about 70 laws that are important to the country as the main victory of the current convocation of the Verkhovna Rada.

MediaWiki::Butt
A Ruby library for the MediaWiki API.
Why?
Two of the main editors at the FTB Gamepedia site found that the lack of functional Ruby Gems for MediaWiki API interactions made it difficult to interact with the wiki through IRC bots (ESAEBSAD and SatanicBot) and scripts. Some core features were either missing entirely or severely out of date in the many other MediaWiki gems, such as basic queries needed for everyday-actions like getting page contents and page backlinks.
MediaWiki::Butt actually began as two local libraries that @xbony2 and @elifoster, the two developers of this gem, worked on separately in their own IRC bot repositories, called wikiutils
. This was an extremely basic API interface for pretty much only queries, with no authentication. Eventually, however, using two or three separate libraries for various API actions grew tiresome, and thus, Butt was born!
Basic feature overview
Pretty much every API action in core MediaWiki is possible through a helper instance method. However, for things that are not supported, there is the post
method, which submits a POST
request (which works fine for things that require a GET
request in the API), that takes a hash parameter to pass to the API. Through this helper method, any API can be accessed!
Limitations
There is currently no extension support. Some APIs are also not supported because the majority of the testing occurs on Gamepedia, which often uses software that is not always up to date.
Installation
RubyGems
$ gem install mediawiki-butt
Bundler
Add this line to application's Gemfile:
gem('mediawiki-butt')
And then execute:

Koala-detection dog helping to sniff out victims of Australia bushfires
A dog named Bear has been helping to save injured koalas following devastating bushfires in Australia.
Wearing socks to protect his paws, he is sent into safe burnt-out areas to sniff out koala faeces and fur.
When he smells a koala, he sits very still to alert his handler that an animal is nearby.
Bear is a rescue dog, given up by his former owners as he was not well suited to life as a pet because he was intelligent and highly energetic.
He now works as a koala detection dog for the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW) alongside his handler, Rianna, from the University of the Sunshine Coast’s Detection Dogs for Conservation.
The pair joined a search and rescue effort in the Northern Rivers region of New South Wales, working alongside Friends Of The Koala.
The teams searched an Indigenous Protected Area, Ngunya Jargoon, near Wardell, which has been devastated by two fires in the past month.
The conditions were against Bear, with strong winds making it hard to pinpoint exact locations, but he indicated koalas present at a number of sites, meaning there are still live animals in the area.
The team will now continue the search.
- Australia wildfires burn as residents warned there is no time left to flee
- Dramatic footage shows firefighters driving through Australian wildfires
IFAW’s wildlife campaigner, Josey Sharrad, said: “Now, more than ever, saving individual koalas is critical.
“With such an intense start to the bushfire season, it will be many weeks and months before some of these fires are out. All the while, wildlife will continue to need to be rescued and treated and may remain in care for some time.
“The road to recovery will be long. The impact on local communities will be felt for many months, and the toll on native wildlife and critical habitat will never truly be known.
“Northern Rivers koalas are already struggling with prolonged drought, excessive land clearing and development, stress-related disease, dog attacks and car strikes. These animals need us now more than ever.”

Built to Tilt is an exciting arcade-style game I designed and built for my capstone engineering project class, ME 102B. The goal is simple: using the joystick, tilt the gameboard to direct a marble into the goal hole on the gameboard. Gamers must prevent the ball from rolling off the table into the gutter, and contend with a game board that spins faster as levels progress. The game is beautifully designed, immersive and addicting! How many rounds will you last?
My team and I emphasized professional-looking and elegant design for this project to stand out from typical hacked together engineering projects. From the clean enclosure and ball dispenser to the user promts on the LCD screen, fluid tilting movement, sound mechanical components and neat wiring, every component the user interacts with directly and indirectly is polished and well-executed. I hope everyone who plays is as impressed--and determined to play just one more round--as I am.

So here I sit, typing at light speed, head spinning and exploding with so many ideas and theories to describe and explain to anyone who will listen. Unfortunately, though, I am beginning my descent from heaven. I keep trying to devise some plan to find just a few more lines, because I know that by the time I am finished writing this, within the next 20 minutes, I will be tortured by the hellish grip of pain, sadness, and depression.
I have slept only 4 hours in the last 3 days. I have spent nearly $250 in those 3 days.  But now I am determined to come down and stay down, at least for a while.
The very first time I ever heard about cocaine, I took an evening to study up on the great white hype. I read about its extremely psychologically addictive effects. I read about how it is easily overindulged and is very expensive. But I wanted to try it to find out for myself how 'great' the feeling really was. I told myself I would only try it once. Ha ha. After the very first line I did, I was hooked. I ended up doing nearly 2 grams between 3 people that night. Never in my life had I felt a feeling like this before. I felt as if I could do ANYTHING. I felt invincible. For hours the 3 of us talked about improving our lives, becoming instantly rich, how the world was created, our many amazing party nights, and how we would never fall into the abyss of cocaine addiction; all the while we were snorting line after line after line.
When I got home that night, after such an awesome experience, I paid the price for every line I took. The only thing I could think of was how I could get more, who could sell me some, where I could get money to pay for it, or someone I knew who would hook me up with just a few lines. I laid in agony for nearly 4 hours before I finally fell into a depressed and troubled sleep.
Since that night 3 months ago, I have spent about $200 on more coke (which isn't that much, but that isn't the point). I didn't listen to my body when it forcefully begged me to never again have to experience the ultimate low to get the ultimate high. I describe cocaine to people who ask as '3 hours of hell for 30 minutes of heaven.' I have tried many drugs, and the pleasure that cocaine creates far surpasses anything I have ever felt. Yet the pain that follows the pleasure is enough to ruin lives. I finally realize this, and am only now admitting to the hellish nature of this profoundly powerful drug.

--- layout: post title: Usain Bolt is A Flying Machine date: 2009-08-23 18:15:40.000000000 +01:00 tags: - Usain Bolt - sprints - world record - athletics type: post published: true ---
I've just watched a quick highlights snip on the BBC showing Usain Bolt's amazing 100m (BBC / YouTube) and even more spectacular 200m (BBC / YouTube) races at the World Champs in Berlin this week.
This man is a flying machine, not a running machine. Take note of his times: 9.58 sec and 19.19 sec respectively. Notice something extra-ordinary? His 200m is only a fraction more than double his 100m time. I'd say once he's going, he's pretty much going at a constant speed for at least 160m of his 200m (assuming it takes him 40m to get up to speed). Imagine his times if he could take a running start to both races or even if he could keep this going for a full 400m.
Actually, come to think of it, if we did a very crude and overly simplified calculation we can probably guess what he's capable of over 400m:
First some assumptions:
This would give him a time of 38:41 sec. He'd smash Michael Johnson's world record (43.18 sec) by nearly 5 seconds. He'd beat it even if we assumed he'd lose a whole second per 100m. Now that's impressive.
Sadly, I don't think he'll be moving up to the 400m any time soon, nor do I think he'd actually be able to attain such a time - he is a man after all, not a machine, but I'm certainly looking forward to his future races.

DWR has cropped up in various tutorials around the web.
Various tutorials have been written about integrating DWR with different technologies:
This section is a group of introduction articles to DWR. Mostly from the 1.x time frame.
About DWR from it's principle author - Joe Walker
Excerpt: This article demonstrates the use of DWR to create a multi-user web-based chat site. It demonstrates how simple it is to integrate JavaScript in the web browser with Java on the server. The aim is to have a fully functional system in about 100 lines of code for both the client and the server...
This introduction has been translated into Spanish by Mariano Ayesa and translated into Italian by Federico Paparoni.
Katherine Martin updated this article with the release of DWR 2.0 to include chat using reverse ajax.
With release 2.0, DWR continues on the same theme, removing from the developers shoulders the pesky problem of "pushing" information. It introduces the term reverse Ajax to describe this asynchronous transfer of messages from server to browser or browsers.
Sang Shin from Sun has created a set of Hands on Labs that discuss various Ajax technologies. The DWR part of the labs starts here.
Excerpt: This hands-on lab takes you through the basics of using DWR for developing AJAX-based web applications. This document is designed to get you going as quickly as possible.
Data serialization doesn't get any easier than this! by Phil McCarthy
Excerpt: Philip McCarthy shows you how to use Direct Web Remoting (DWR) to expose JavaBeans methods directly to your JavaScript code and automate the heavy-lifting of Ajax... While DWR is not the only Ajax-RPC toolkit available for the Java platform, it is one of the most mature, and it offers a great deal of useful functionality.
Introduction to Ajax and DWR by David Teare
Excerpt: For Java Developers there are a number of different frameworks/libraries that hide most of the complexity of developing AJAX-enabled Web applications. For this purposes of this article I'll be using one of those libraries called DWR or Direct Web Remoting. I chose DWR because I haven't found another framework/library that's easier to use or as flexible...
The print version of this page is a lot more readable and doesn't contain any embedded videos or pop over dialogs.
Introduction to Ajax and DWR by David Teare
Excerpt: What's really neat about DWR is that once you configure the services you want to expose to the client, it uses reflection to generate JavaScript objects that your Web page can use to access your service. Your Web page then simply interfaces with the generated JavaScript objects as if they were using the service directly; DWR seamlessly takes care of all of the dirty details of Ajax and request routing....
An introductory article to DWR by Cloves Carneiro Jr.
Excerpt: This article explains the advantages of using the open source project DWR (Direct Web Remoting) with AJAX (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) concepts to improve Web application usability. The author takes a step-by-step approach to show how DWR makes adopting AJAX simple and fast. (1,600 words; June 20, 2005)


How To?
How to use MentalBot:
- After you've clicked on the launch button, you are going to
want to take off glasses or anything that is on the front of your face.
- (If you have used MentalBot you can skip this help section)
-
If this is your first time using MentalBot you are going to need to
calibrate it to your facial expressions, so you will want to look at the camera.
-
When on the MentalBot page, press calibrate in the top right of the screen.
-
When calibrating, you will want to look at the camera on your device and make the expression that is highlighted (for example, if sad is
highlighted you will want to have a sad expression) and then press "Start Calibration".
-
Continue Step 4 until all the expressions have been finished.
-
Once you have calibrated all expressions, you can click "Launch MentalBot"!

Gemini is a protocol just like HTTP and Gopher. Provides more features than Gopher and less features than HTTP. Focus on simplicity, privacy and generality. I strongly recommend reading more about it at the official source.
I discovered Gemini yesterday and the most exciting thing for me was how simple it was to understand the working under the hood.
A working client in 100 lines of code and a TLS library ? It is amazing for introducing students to an internet protocol.
That's all folks. Cheers
