  • BRISTOL CITY COUNCIL Cabinet 6 December 2007 Report Of: Director
    ITEM 6 BRISTOL CITY COUNCIL Cabinet 6 December 2007 Report of: Director of Children and Young People’s Services Title: Post-consultation Report on Residential Provision for Pupils with Special Educational Needs Ward: Citywide Contact officer: Ian McDowall Programme Director – Safeguarding and Specialist Support Contact telephone number: 0117 9037940 Recommendation That approval is given to • publish statutory notices proposing the closure of Kingsdon Manor School with effect from 31 August 2008. • publish statutory notices to re-designate Florence Brown Community School with effect from 1 September 2008. • Any revenue savings (approximately £1m) resulting from the closure of Kingsdon Manor School will be re-invested in day BESD provision within the city. 1 Summary This report outlines responses received to the recent consultations in respect of the proposals. It recommends the publication of statutory notices to close Kingsdon Manor School and re-designate Florence Brown Community School. • The proposals are linked to the principles identified in the SEN Specialist Provision Strategy. • Significant shortage of day provision for pupils with behavioural, emotional and social difficulties (BESD). • Under utilisation of both residential BESD schools. • A need to make better use of existing residential provision by reducing overall numbers to better match demand, obtaining better value for money and improving provision. • Pupils requiring day BESD provision referred for extended periods to Pupil Referral Units due to a lack of day placements. • The cost of vacant places cannot be shared with other authorities and so the cost to Bristol to send pupils to its residential schools has been far higher than for other authorities. • The development of Florence Brown School as a BESD resource is crucial to the plan to create additional day BESD provision for the south of the city.

    University of Kent's Institution Contextual Flag All schools on this list meet the requirements for the University of Kent's Institution Contextual Flag. The Institution Contextual Flag is given to all institutions whose data indicates that they perform in the bottom 40% nationally for KS5 results reported by the Department for Education each year. We use the average point school per entry and where data is not available, we use KS4 result, if available. In order to make this more reliable we look at data over a three year period to see if they are low performing for at least two out of the last three years. In cases where an Institution is flagged, but subsequently closes, the flag will be retained and the institution will continue to appear on the list. We use the Institution supplied by you in your UCAS application (the UCAS centre or Last Institution) to identify whether it has a Contextual Flag. Please note: independent schools are not included, neither do we have data from government agencies in Scotland and Northern Ireland and therefore these cannot be given a flag. Similarly, there may be schools or colleges which have recently changed name, status or have merged and this has resulted in no data being reported by the Department of Education , in these instances we will not be able to assess the Institution for a Contextual Flag.
