  • Southampton Secondary School Expansion and Improvement Planning 2015-2025
    Southampton Secondary School Expansion and Improvement Planning 2015-2025 DISCUSSION PAPER Building for Excellence SUBJECT: BUILDING FOR EXCELLENCE Secondary School Expansion and Improvement 2015-2025 THIS IS NOT A DECISION PAPER SUMMARY: Southampton has seen a considerable increase in the need for school places and the peak year for entry to Year R (primary) will be 2015/16. However, the number of pupils entering Year R has been growing since 2009 the growth in the school population is beginning to impact on secondary school pupil numbers. While we currently have a significant surplus of secondary school places in the City (forecast at 14 per cent in Year 7 for 2015), this will fall sharply to 2018/19 where, without intervention and at current Published Admission Numbers (PANs), there is forecast to be a deficit of Year 7 places in the City (-2.6 per cent). When the 2015/16 Year R classes progress through to the secondary sector, a forecast Year 7 peak will occur in the 2022/23 academic year with a deficit of 605 Year 7 places in the City (-26 per cent). Some schools’ current PANs are below their original intended capacity. The first phase of any expansion plans will be to raise PANs, where possible, to ensure all available places are filled. At some schools this will require minor works to ensure that educational outcomes are not affected. The Schools Capital Projects Team has begun the process of investigation and consultation into Secondary School Expansion and Improvement. The process has begun with a series of secondary school site visits and discussions with individual Head Teachers about the issues facing each school in the City and about the expansion of places across the City.
