Ivel Valley School

Ivel Valley School is a coeducational special school, located in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire, England. The school accepts pupils from all over the Central Bedfordshire area, and was opened in September 2010 on the site of Sunnyside School. History Sunnyside School and Hitchmead School were two separate schools for children with different levels of special educational needs. In June 2009, Central Bedfordshire Council launched a consultation on the future of special education provision in the district. The consultation included a proposal to merge the two schools. This was due to Sunnyside School having more pupils attending than the school buildings were designed for, while Hitchmead School had a falling roll call, which has fallen from 87 pupils to 51 in the previous five years. In December 2009, Central Bedfordshire Council confirmed that a new combined special school would open on the current site of Sunnyside School in September 2010, with most pupils from Sunnyside and Hitchmead Schools transferring to the new school. The school today The new school formally opened in September 2010 with the name of Ivel Valley School. Various modifications were made to the school site to accommodate the new range of pupils, while the old Hitchmead School site is still used for some educational activities by the school's pupils. The school is currently for pupils between the ages of 3 and 19 years of age, whose special educational needs fall predominantly within the categories of Severe or Moderate Learning Difficulties. Some pupils may have additional medical, physical or sensory impairments or emotional and behavioural difficulties. All pupils attending the school will have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). Following a reorganisation of the school, and additional classrooms being installed, in summer 2018 most pupils between 3 and 16 are now based on the Hitchmead Road site (the School site) and those between 16 and 19 are based at The Baulk (the College site). Some pupils are based in satellite classes at Biggleswade Academy. References

Goring Hotel

The Goring Hotel is a 5-star luxury hotel at 15 Beeston Place in the Victoria area of London, England. It is located just east of Belgravia, and to the southwest of Buckingham Palace. The hotel's restaurant, The Dining Room, holds one Michelin Star. History The Goring Hotel was opened by Otto Richard Goring on 2 March 1910 and professed to be the first hotel in the world in which every room had a private bathroom and central heating. In 1914, The Goring became the command centre for the Chief of Allied Forces, and contact with President Woodrow Wilson during World War I was made from this hotel. In November 1917 it became the U.S. Army Headquarters in London, as it was adjacent to the American Naval and Military authorities. The hotel was released back to its owners on 8 September 1919. In 1919, Lady Randolph Churchill, the mother of Winston Churchill, moved into The Goring Hotel. During World War II, the Fox Film crew stayed at the hotel on their way to film footage of the D-Day invasion. The hotel is the only remaining hotel in London that is still owned and run by the family that built it. The Queen Mother was a regular at The Goring. The Goring has held a royal warrant of appointment from Queen Elizabeth II since 2013, and it is the only hotel to have been granted this honour. In 2011, Catherine Middleton and her family were based at the hotel for the days around her wedding to Prince William. The Duchess stayed in the Royal Suite the night before she got married. She returned to the hotel while eight months pregnant to mark renovations that had taken place, which included a newly decorated front hall. References External links Official website

JB's Dudley

JB's Dudley, usually known simply as JB's, was a nightclub and live music venue located on Castle Hill near the centre of Dudley, West Midlands. Originally opened on a different site in 1969, it claimed to be the longest-running live music venue in the United Kingdom, and hosted early performances by acts such as Dire Straits and U2. History The club was owned throughout its existence by former motorcycle speedway rider Sam Jukes, who started the club with two friends in 1969 after his sporting career was ended by injury. It began operation as a disco night held in the social club at the former home stadium of Dudley Town Football Club and was intended to raise extra funds for the cash-strapped club. It quickly outgrew these premises and relocated to a 250-capacity venue behind a menswear shop on King Street in the early 1970s, before moving to Castle Hill in 1994, which afforded a capacity of 1,000. Jukes states that he named the club after John Bryant, a local DJ who was popular with women, as he felt his association with the venue would help bring in customers, although rumours persist that it was named after Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham, a native of nearby Redditch. In 2008, rumours circulated that the venue might be subject to a compulsory purchase order and closed down as part of a multimillion-pound redevelopment scheme for the town centre. A spokesman for Dudley Metropolitan Borough Council stated, however, that this was not part of the plan at that time, although the redevelopment might extend to include Castle Hill at a future date. The club went into administration during 2010, and it was hoped that a buyer would be found to continue to run the club in its then-present state but new ownership failed to materialise and the club was closed in January 2011. The site of the club was eventually sold in late 2012 and was briefly transformed into a conference and banqueting centre. Concerts The venue hosted performances by U2, UB40, Blur, Manic Street Preachers, Elvis Costello, Skunk Anansie, The Stone Roses, Primal Scream, Doctor Feelgood, Radiohead and Judas Priest. It also regularly hosted concerts by up-and-coming local bands, including People Eater. The three leading bands of the so-called "Stourbridge music scene" of the early 1990s, Pop Will Eat Itself, The Wonder Stuff and Ned's Atomic Dustbin, all cite the venue as a major influence over their early careers. In 2000, the venue celebrated its 30th anniversary by hosting a two-day music festival at nearby Dudley Castle featuring Terrorvision, Ned's Atomic Dustbin, and former Wonder Stuff frontman Miles Hunt. Frank Sidebottom maintained that his set at JB's, a poorly-attended gig at which the audience collectively decided to play football instead of watching the band, was the best gig he ever did.

Jewish Community Secondary School

The Jewish Community Secondary School (JCoSS) is a state-funded Jewish secondary school in New Barnet, London. Established in 2010, it is the first cross-denominational secondary school in the UK. It was established after Helena Miller (of Leo Baeck College) observed that while her son had gone to JFS, many of his friends had not been able to attend because of oversubscription and halachic requirements. In 2001, she initiated a process of community engagement and consultation which led ultimately to the successful proposal for a new faith school. Construction of the school began in April 2009. JCoSS opened a year at a time, with up to 180 students joining Year 7 each year until the school was fully populated with around 1360 students. Its sixth form opened in 2012. The school, whose current headteacher is Dr. Melanie Lee, has specialist status in science. It cost £50 million to build, £36 million of which was funded by the government, and is the most expensive state-funded secondary school to be built in the UK. Gerald Ronson, a business tycoon and philanthropist, helped in the fundraising drive and is the president of the JCoSS Trust. The Pears Special Resource Provision (PSRP) at the school has places for up to 49 children (seven places each year) with autistic spectrum disorders. Norwood, a Jewish charity, is providing some of the services at the PSRP. Before the school opened, several Orthodox rabbis expressed concern over JCoSS's compatibility with their faith. At the construction ceremony, Ed Balls, who at the time was Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, said the school would play an important role in dealing with discrimination and prejudice. In 2019, JCoSS was named The Sunday Times' London State Secondary School of the Year, in recognition of its record-breaking results in GCSE and A Levels.

Dragon School

The Dragon School is a private school in Oxford, England. It operates on two sites, the Dragon Pre-Prep (children aged 4–7) and Prep School (children aged 8–13) are both co-educational schools. The Dragon Prep School was founded in 1877 as the Oxford Preparatory School. It takes day pupils and boarders. Originally established for boys, the Dragon School also accepted a small number of day girls with a close connection to the school, first admitting girls as boarders in 1994. The school educates children aged 4 to 13 in two sites in North Oxford: Bardwell Road and Richards Lane. Boarding starts at 8, and there are 10 boarding houses, including one weekly-boarding house. Dragon Lane runs along the edge of the school immediately to the west. History The school was founded by a committee of Oxford dons, among whom the most active was a Mr. George. In honour of Saint George, the group decided to call themselves Dragons. Teaching started in September 1877 at rooms in Balliol Hall, located in St Giles', Oxford, supervised by A. E. Clarke. The school expanded and moved within two years to 17 Crick Road, which became known as "School House". Charles Cotterill Lynam (known as the "Skipper") took over as headmaster in 1886. In 1894, Lynam took out a lease on land at the current site at Bardwell Road in central North Oxford, just to the west of the River Cherwell. £4,000 was raised through subscriptions from local parents for the erection of new school buildings and the move was completed within a year. The school was known as the Oxford Preparatory School and also Lynam's, but gradually its current name was adopted. The Dragon School became the second school to take part in the Harrow History Prize in 1895. Over the years, many of its pupils have won this prize, an early winner being Kit Lynam. The school was run for many years by the Lynam family. The school has become notable for its large number of eminent alumni.

Dragon School

La Dragon School è una scuola elementare della città inglese di Oxford fondata nel 1877. Ad essa sono ammessi studenti che vanno dagli otto ai tredici anni. Nel settembre del 2001 studiavano in questo prestigioso istituto 840 bambini, di ambo i sessi. Storia La Dragon School fu fondata nel 1877, e, in origine, fu chiamata "Scuola elementare privata di Oxford" o, in alternativa, "Scuola elementare privata Lynam". Subito dopo la sua fondazione, si trasferì all'attuale domicilio presso Bardwell Road, nella zona nord centrale di Oxford. Il primo corpo insegnante della scuola è stato un comitato di professori di un college di Oxford. Il più attivo tra questi insegnanti fu un certo Sir. George; da quel momento i primi alunni decisero di chiamarsi "Draghi", in onore di San Giorgio. La scuola fu amministrata per molti anni dalla famiglia Lynam, che la portò ad essere riconosciuta una delle migliori e più celebri scuole elementari inglesi.

Fortune Playhouse

Fortune Playhouse, nota anche come Fortune Theatre, è stato un teatro storico di Londra situato nel borgo londinese di Islington, poco a nord della City of London. La Fortune Playhouse era contemporanea al Globe Theatre di Shakespeare; si trovava nella parrocchia di St Giles-without-Cripplegate, ad ovest del Globe, dove oggi c'è Fortune Street. Tra il 1600 e il 1642 era uno dei principali teatri di arte drammatica di Londra. L'architettura del Teatro Shakespeare di Danzica, inaugurato nel 2014, è stata liberamente ispirata a quella del Fortune Playhouse. Storia Si ritiene che il teatro sia stato fondato intorno al 1600 dall'attore Edward Alleyn. Egli incaricò Peter Street, che aveva appena terminato la costruzione del Globe, di allestire il nuovo teatro. È stato stimato che il costo di costruzione del teatro, comprensivo dei diritti sull'area, sia stato di 1320 £. Alleyn conservò Il contratto di costruzione, per cui si hanno più dati sul Fortune Theatre che su altri teatri londinesi dell'epoca. Il teatro venne soppresso nel 1642 dal Parlamento Puritano.

The Fortune (theater)

The Fortune was een theatergebouw dat in 1600 werd gebouwd door de Londense ondernemer en impresario Philip Henslowe, samen met zijn partner en schoonzoon, de steracteur Edward Alleyn. Het was bestemd als speellocatie voor hun gezelschap de Admiral's Men. Henslowe liet het gebouw neerzetten op de noordelijke oever van de Theems, net buiten de stadsmuren van Londen en daarmee buiten het bestuurlijke gebied van de City of London. Het stond ten westen van Shoreditch, waar zich al de The Theatre en The Curtain bevonden. The Fortune was bedoeld om beter te kunnen concurreren met de Globe Theatre van de Lord Chamberlain's Men, het gezelschap van William Shakespeare en Richard Burbage, dat in 1599 neerstreek in dit nieuwe theater in Bankside, Southwark. De Admiral's Men bespeelden daar het al wat oudere theater The Rose, en kregen te maken met verminderde belangstelling. The Fortune, zo genoemd naar de Romeinse godin Fortuna, waarvan een beeld de ingang sierde, was opgezet volgens de richtlijnen van The Globe. Dezelfde bouwer als die van de Globe, Peter Street, werd hiervoor ingeschakeld, en in het contact werd duidelijk vastgelegd dat The Globe als voorbeeld moest dienen, maar dat het gebouw, anders dan alle andere theaters in die tijd, vierkant van vorm moest zijn. Deze vorm verwees naar de locaties waar voor de bouw van de grote Londense theaters werd gespeeld: de binnenplaatsen van herbergen. De bouwkosten werden begroot op een bedrag van £440 en het theater moest half juli 1600 gereed zijn. De kosten bleken op te lopen tot ruim £520 en het theater opende in november van dat jaar. De Admiral’s Men speelden hier met veel succes tot 1621, toen het gebouw afbrandde. In 1623 werd het herbouwd, deze keer van steen, waar voorheen hout was gebruikt, en in de inmiddels vertrouwde ronde vorm. Alle theaters werden in 1642 door de puriteinen, de partij van Oliver Cromwell, verboden. Het gebouw werd daarna nog wel enkele malen gebruikt voor illegale voorstellingen, maar in 1649 werd het gedeeltelijk gesloopt en in 1661 werd het geheel afgebroken om plaats te maken voor woningbouw.
