Breaking the Link: Everyone’s Business (DCSF, 2009)
For most pupils school is a rich and rewarding experience, but it is an uncomfortable fact that at every ability level in the system, pupils from poor backgrounds achieve less well than their counterparts.
Real progress in breaking the link between deprivation and low educational attainment relies most of all on the leadership of every teacher in every school, and on their ability to transmit their own passion for transforming opportunity.

Breaking the Link: Everyone’s Business (DCSF, 2009)
About half (48%) of pupils entitled to FSM are to be found in the third of schools with greatest concentration of disadvantage, and the other half are spread across the other two thirds of schools.
Of the roughly ten per cent of pupils identified by schools as gifted and talented, there is a significant under-representation of those from disadvantaged backgrounds … great potential is currently going unrecognised, and perhaps undeveloped.

The relative gap in performance between FSM and non-FSM children is greatest in the least deprived schools

Summary
• Schools can, and do, make a difference to pupils. Everyone has a part to play in ensuring the progress of all pupils.
• For most pupils school is a rich and rewarding experience but for some it is not.
• At every ability level in the system, pupils from poor backgrounds achieve less well than their counterparts.
• The reasons are complex but we all have a part to play in ensuring that all pupils make the progress they deserve.

Curricular targets
• A curricular target expresses in words, not numbers, a specific aspect of the curriculum as a focus for improvement
• It can be for a whole class, a group or individual pupil and can relate to the long, medium or short term

Open Source Software
• Cabinet office is saying that OS is important and schools should make more use of it.
• The Cabinet office will actively and fairly consider OS solutions alongside proprietary solutions in making their procurement decisions and where there is no significant overall cost differences between OS and proprietary code OS should be chosen because it allows a lot more flexibility than pre-packaged software.

00641-2009CDO-EN
Open Source Software
Ofsted report ‘importance of ICT’ 2009• “Schools had chosen to purchase a package of ‘office’
software that is standard in the business world. On the one hand, this has the benefit of introducing students to software they are likely to encounter in the future; on the other, it may actually be hindering the development of their skills. .”
• “The standard database software provided as part of ‘office’ packages is difficult to access and inappropriate for learning relational database work. Its widespread deployment for teaching and learning about databases is limiting students’ capability.”

Open Source Software• Innovation is occurring using OS, but not been exploited in UK as
fully as elsewhere.• In Europe it is taken for granted that innovation and OS are linked.• In France 96% of public sector organisations are using OS.• Munich started migrating to OS in 2003• Andalusia in Spain, 190,500 students and teachers will start using
open source laptops in January 2010.• Google, Facebook and Wikipedia etc. built on OS• 56% of Servers supporting the WWW are using OS (Apache)• Many household names use OS, e.g. Spec Savers totally open
