Description:
ATHENA is a very successful Excellence in Cities Education Action Zone based in Birmingham, England. The zone was established 4 years ago to improve the attainment of underperforming pupils attending a cluster of schools in this vibrant, multicultural, urban metropolis. The challenge for the zone was to re-engage pupils in the learning experience and in so doing, raise their attainment to meet national standards. From a starting point some 40% below national standards Zone schools now achieve an average performance rate in excess of national levels.
