Red House 1969–1972: the case for “intermediate” educational institutions
In October 2010 the government confirmed it would introduce a “pupil premium” payable to schools with disadvantaged pupils. This shift towards resourcing by group rather than area may mark the closing of another chapter in efforts to produce a more meritocratic education system utilising what might be termed intermediate institutions. Their predecessors opened more than 3500 Children’s Centres to develop new strategies for working with the families of preschool children in order to alter long-term educational trajectories. This paper reflects on an earlier chapter in public efforts to secure greater educational equality, the first three years of the Red House Education Centre in Denaby Main, a mining village in Yorkshire’s West Riding, in the period 1969 to 1972. Red House was the most significant development arising from the West Riding Educational Priority Area (WREPA) Project and was an example of area-based positive discrimination. The paper explores two key questions. Can schools be re-positioned so that they offer the community an opportunity to develop as active participants in reshaped democratic processes, or are new institutional forms required? Did Red House offer parents and professionals the opportunity to improve educational outcomes in a neutral space where both felt a sense of ownership?

The article provides the information about the involvement of gifted youth into intellectual competitions in Ukraine. Attention is focused on the fact that in modern conditions, in a distance format, high school students can simultaneously participate in various competitions, Olympiads and tournaments. It is emphasized that different intellectual competitions are intended for different educational institutions and their students. Thus, there are 19,020 educational institutions in Ukraine that train gifted youth and are the active participants in various intellectual competitions. Focusing on the categories of educational institutions, we distinguish the following: 729 institutions of higher education, 595 institutions of professional preliminary higher education, 1389 institutions of professional and technical education, 16,307 institutions of general secondary education. Therefore, such a number of educational institutions allow students to participate in intellectual competitions, thereby presenting their own educational institution at the all-Ukrainian or international level. The study focuses on the fact that in order to obtain the results of intellectual competitions in Ukraine at all-Ukrainian and international levels in an automatic mode, it is necessary to create an analytical and informational system for effective work with gifted youth. Such a system will make it possible to carry out the necessary sampling of data, which is previously entered into the database on the basis of official documents in Ukraine. To create an analytical and informational system, it is necessary to highlight the main selection criteria in relation to the educational institutions, students and intellectual competitions. Focusing on the educational institutions, we highlight the following indicators: a name of the educational institution, its short name, a name of the educational institution (in English), a year of establishment, a form of ownership, a type of institution, a name of the organ to which the educational institution belongs, a settlement, an address (legal), a telephone, an e-mail, a website, a post of the head of the institution and his or her first and last name.

try it dates back at least to Bronze Age times. But emergence of the West Riding of Yorkshire as the major manufacturing area has been comparatively recent and largely due to existence of supplies of accessible coal in an area of abundant soft water, together with old established skill in the working of wool.

This article points out that the process of modernizing the Russian Federation’s education system is aimed at developing such a professional body of teachers that would be prepared to solve issues associated with improving the quality of education. Given such a situation, the need arises for finding effective means of developing the professional competencies of teachers. One direction for modernizing the education system would be a national system of advancement for teachers, which postulates the need for creating the right conditions for the formal and informal training of educators. Given the context, socio-professional teachers’ unions turn out to be especially vital. The goal of this study was to identify how active participation in the practices of such organizations is connected to a young teacher’s professional growth. The study was conducted in Orel Province. Members of the regional young math teachers’ association were selected to be the object of research, with questionnaire survey used as the research method. The study focused on several aspects of teaching: professional difficulties faced by young educators, the mentorship system, an educator’s value orientations, professional growth. The results of the study allowed for identifying three groups of educators, the first one being young teachers who do not actively participate in educational events. The second group included teachers who do not share their own methodical expertise, but partake in seminars and master classes. The third group consists of educators who publically share their experience and are prepared to think of new ideas for future events. The article shows that the Association’s active participation in various events significantly affected the individual value orientations of trade professionals. Those educators who shared their publically work experience demonstrated a higher degree of professional aptitude in performing their jobs within the national system of teachers’ training. ctive efforts as members of the Association helped young educators quickly adapt within their professional community and establish firm social connections with their colleagues. The authors suggest the need for developing a system of mentorship in educational institutions, which would utilize resources provided by socio-professional teachers’ unions.
