Minutes:

15.1   The Lead Member considered a report by the Director of Children’s Services regarding the Education Commissioning Plan 2019 – 2023.

 

15.2   The Lead Member RESOLVED to:

1) approve the publication of the Education Commissioning Plan 2019 – 23 and;

2) agree to the plan being re-branded the ‘School Organisation Plan’ prior to its publication

Reason

15.3     The Council has a statutory duty to ensure there are sufficient school places to meet present and future demand across the county. The updated plan for the period 2019-2023 clearly sets out the projected demand for places in the future and where we think we will need to commission additional places or reorganise existing provision to maintain a sustainable network of schools with the right number of places in the right locations to serve local need.
