Королевская академия Inverness - это всеобъемлющая средняя школа в городе Инвернесс в высокогорном районе Шотландии .
Бывшая гимназия с историей, начиная с 13-го века, академия стала всеобъемлющей в середине 1970-х годов. Он был на своем нынешнем месте в районе Калдутел города с 1977 года.
Зона водосбора
[ редактировать ]Школа-это шестилетняя всеобъемлющая школа, обслуживающая обширную область. Связанными начальными школами являются Stratherrick, Aldourie, Cauldeen, Farr, Foyers, Hilton, Holm , Lochardil, Inshes и Bun-Sgoil Ghaidhlig Inbhir NIS (Gaelic Pury School Inverness). Дети, живущие в районе водосбора, которые посещали праймериз Сент -Иосифа и епископа Иден, также переносятся там после первичного 7. Родители, живущие вне зоны водосбора, могут попросить, чтобы их дети были размещены туда. В настоящее время около ста детей живут из зоны водосбора и посещают академию.
История
[ редактировать ]Отслеживая свою историю в школу, основанную доминиканским монахом в 1223 году, через городскую гимназию в 1668 году, до основания Академии в 1792 году, школа была расположена в следующих местах по всему городу.
- Район улицы монастыря (Доминиканский монастырь) 1223–1668
- Черч -стрит (ныне Данбарский центр) 1668–1792 гг.
- Академия улица (ранее Новая улица) 1792–1895
- Здание среднего костюма (ранее в колледже UHI -Inverness) 1895 - 1980 и [ нужно разъяснения ]
- Culduthel Road 1977 - 2016
- Culduthel Road 2016 - Present
Непрерывное существование школы как развивающегося учреждения не может быть продемонстрировано из оставшихся в курсе, и, вероятно, безопаснее интерпретировать это как последовательность образовательных положений и в основном для Бурга, а не для выживания одной школы. Однако существуют доказательства того, что концентрация на одном участке и в одном здании все чаще одобрялась (как и в других местах в Британии и трансатлантических колониях, из которых появились многие из ранних подписок Академии) в последующем восемнадцатом веке, и и и и что грамматическая школа будет в центре внимания этого, особенно во время ректора Гектора Фрейзера, который учил многих торговцев и адвокатов, участвующих в создании Королевской академии, которая была из первого инновационного и автономного проекта, нацеленного, целей, Как показывает первая минута книга, чтобы обеспечить что -то вроде ступенчатого камня для полного университетского статуса для Бурга, с учебной программой, разработанной в свете идей просвещения, и доминирующей не классикой, а в науках и математике.
For the first quarter-century of the academy's existence something like this ideal was sustained, and the appointments of its Rectors showed a bias towards the emerging sciences - for example that of Alexander Nimmo, who became a disciple of Telford, and left in 1811 to work on civil engineering projects in the West of Ireland. He was followed by a mathematician, Matthew Adam.
The academy was open to girls from the start, and in its English, writing and drawing classes provided the sort of education for girls that middle-class parents were happy with, although there seems also to have been an enthusiasm for geography. In the mid-nineteenth century one girl was adjudged the best mathematics pupil in the school, but could not be awarded the appropriate medal, which went only to boys.
From the opening of the academy in 1792 (when pupils came from all over the Highlands and across the Atlantic, especially the Caribbean - some are shown in the surviving rolls as "coloured") a continuous existence can safely be traced, in which major milestones after 1792 were the adaptation to compulsory schooling after 1872, and the demands of the professions generally, which led to the establishment of the new building on the Crown in 1895.
The school's management was by the Inverness School Board after 1910, and later by Inverness County Council and Highland Regional Council.
On 28 April 1962 when the school's outdoor club was climbing on Stac Pollaidh, a 15-year-old boy slipped and fell 40 feet to his death.
Comprehensive
[edit]There was movement in the 1950s and 1960s (when Gaelic speaking pupils from the Western Isles were still accepted and housed in the Hostel on Culduthel Road) from fee-paying and selectivity to the status of area comprehensive in the mid and late 1970s, again on a new site.
On 26 June 1992 the school was visited by the controversial Prince Andrew, Duke of York to celebrate its bi-centenary, with Lachlan Mackintosh of Mackintosh. On 23 November 2009 his brother, Prince Edward, visited the school, having also visited on 11 June 2003.
School building
[edit]The new school building has 4 floors for a variety of subjects. The ground floor has the guidance base, Year head base, 4 technology workshops, P.E classrooms, 2 large games halls, the learning support department as well as the reception in the front, the canteen under the larger atrium and the cafe area under the smaller atrium. The first floor is home to the theatre located above the staircase in the first floor with a drama studio attached. The fitness suite, the dance studio, Geography, History, Modern Studies, Business Studies, Graphic Communication, Engineering Science, Music and Home Economics classrooms. The second Floor has the English, Gaelic, Modern Languages (French, German and Spanish) and Maths classrooms as well as a computer room and 2 unisex toilets. The third floor is home to the Science classrooms (Physics, Biology and Chemistry), the second computer room and Art department with four classrooms.
The school was awarded £46 million in order to construct the new building. The construction commenced in summer 2014 and has since been completed. The pupils moved into the new school on 18 August 2016.
