Les Quennevais School
Les Quennevais School (Jèrriais: ''L'êcole des Tchennevais'') is a secondary school, owned and operated by the States of Jersey, and located in the parish of Saint Brélade in Jersey. History In 2015, it was decided that the Les Quennevais secondary school buildings needed to be replaced because they were outdated, too small for the student body, and on a site that is too small for a modern school. The new build took place on fields 80, 84 and 85 off Rue Carrée and was opened in September 2021. Headteachers The three houses that consist within Les Quennevais are named after the first three headteachers: Watts, Tranter and McKeon. *John Watts: 1964-1969 *Ted Tranter: 1970-1988 *Tom McKeon: 1988-1992 *Jenny Hydes: 1992-1999 *John Thorp: 1999-2013 *Sarah Hague: 2013 to present See also * Les Quennevais Rugby Club * List of schools in Jersey This is a list of schools in Jersey.

Secondary School
A secondary school describes an institution that provides secondary education and also usually includes the building where this takes place. Some secondary schools provide both '' lower secondary education'' (ages 11 to 14) and ''upper secondary education'' (ages 14 to 18), i.e., both levels 2 and 3 of the ISCED scale, but these can also be provided in separate schools. In the US, the secondary education system has separate middle schools and high schools. In the UK, most state schools and privately-funded schools accommodate pupils between the ages of 11–16 or 11–18; some UK private schools, i.e. public schools, admit pupils between the ages of 13 and 18. Secondary schools follow on from primary schools and prepare for vocational or tertiary education. Attendance is usually compulsory for students until age 16. The organisations, buildings, and terminology are more or less unique in each country. Levels of education In the ISCED 2011 education scale levels 2 and ...

However, the parish also has a number of notable natural sites, such as the sand dunes of St Ouen's Bay. History Its name is derived from a 6th-century Celtic or Welsh "wandering saint" named Branwalator or St. Brelade (also ''Branwallder'', ''Broladre'', ''Brelodre'', ''Brélade''), who is said to have been the son of the Cornish king, Kenen.

States Of Jersey
The States Assembly (french: Assemblée des États; Jèrriais: ) is the parliament of Jersey, formed of the island's 37 deputies and the Connétable of each of the twelve parishes. The origins of the legislature of Jersey lie in the system of self-government according to Norman law guaranteed to the Channel Islands by John, King of England, following the division of Normandy in 1204. The States Assembly has exercised uncontested legislative powers since 1771, when the concurrent law-making power of the Royal Court of Jersey was abolished. The Assembly passes and amends laws and regulations; approves the annual budget and taxation; appoints the chief minister, ministers and members of various committees and panels; debates matters proposed by the Council of Ministers, by individual States Members or by one of the committees or panels. Members are also able to ask questions to find out information and to hold ministers to account. Executive powers are exercised by a chief mi ...
