To approve the Strategy for Change Part 1 which sets out the Authority’s proposals for BSF. 2. To authorise the Cabinet Member for Schools to approve further minor textual changes prior to the submission of the document to Partnerships for Schools (PfS) and the Department for Children, Schools and Families (DCSF) Executive Summary Wolverhampton is in Wave 5 of BSF. The Remit meeting on 4 September marked the Authority’s formal entry to the BSF Programme. The next stage in the BSF approvals process is the submission of the Strategy for Change Part 1 to Partnerships for Schools for assessment. The Department for Children, Schools and Families will consider the SfC Part 1 alongside the PfS assessment, prior to Ministerial approval. The Building Schools for the Future programme will bring £300 million funding to the City, which will be made available to support a continuous programme of investment.

The Remit meeting took place on Tuesday 4 September, at which time the Council’s Chief Executive, Richard Carr, and the Chief Executive of Partnerships for Schools (PfS), Tim Byles, signed a Memorandum of Understanding which marked the Authority’s formal entry to the BSF programme. Members should note that this was the first Remit meeting for a Wave 5 Authority. The anticipated timetable for a Wave 5 Authority is shown below: Wave 5 Timetable Remit Meeting 4 September 2007 Strategy for Change August 2007 – October 2007 Part 1 Strategy for Change November 2007 – February Part 2 2008 Development of the March 2008 – September 2008 Outline Business Case Aim to sign 2010-11 contracts First schools open 2011-12 1.2 As indicated above, the next stage is to submit the Strategy for Change (SfC), which is the first formal component of the BSF approvals process. The SfC is designed to capture both the local authority’s strategy for 11-19 education and the requirements that strategy places upon the physical school estate. Part 1 is the Key Challenges and Objectives section of the SfC. It will show the scope of the authority’s BSF transformation plan. It is the ‘what is to be done’ component. 1.3 SfC Part 1 contains three sections – (a) A map/table/chart showing ‘before and after’ for each school: • Characteristics and profile: • Pupil achievement: • Governance: • Extended/community provision; (b) A strategic overview of existing school and FE provision and proposals for change; (c) Proposals for the school and FE estate It will be assessed by Partnerships for Schools (PfS) and passed to the Department for Children, Schools and Families. The Department (including the Office of the Schools Commissioner) will consider the SfC Part 1, alongside PfS’ assessment, and the document is subject to Ministerial approval. BSF Strategy for Change.doc 1.4 Although the Council is required to submit its SfC Part 1 by 31 October, formal guidance has only recently been received by the Council. Furthermore, detailed work is ongoing with PfS regarding pupil number projections. Authority is therefore requested for the Cabinet Member for Schools to approve any minor changes to the SfC Part 1 before submission. 2.0 Strategy for Change Part 1 2.1 At the Remit meeting officers reached in principle agreement with PfS and DCSF on a number of key issues which had been the subject of intensive negotiation during the preceding weeks. In particular: • BSF will involve establishing two academies, one in the south-east and the other in the north of the City. • The two academies will replace three existing schools – Parkfield High School, Northicote School and Pendeford Business and Enterprise College. • The Council will be a sponsor of both academies. • BSF will involve the establishment of trust, trust-like or federation arrangements across the City to underpin collaboration and support educational improvement. • BSF funding for Wolverhampton will be nearly £300 million and will be made available to support a single continuous programme of investment, rather than two separate programmes of £150 million, with uncertainty about the timing of the second programme. These key areas of agreement are reflected in the attached SfC Part 1, especially Sections 2.4 and 3.2, and are now submitted for Executive endorsement. 3.0 BSF Preparatory Work 3.1 The programme governance and management arrangements for BSF are now well established. In particular, • The Local Learning Partnership Board has agreed to take on the role of BSF Stakeholder Board; • There have now been eight appointments to the BSF Project Team; however the capacity of the Team will need to be increased to cope with the demands of a single investment programme of £300 million. • Work is well advanced in procuring external financial and legal advisors. 3.2 A communications strategy is being developed with corporate support. This includes a BSF website, and the appointment of a dedicated BSF Communications Officer. 3.3 A number of BSF work streams are already well underway, including technical (building design and construction) and ICT/e-learning. BSF Strategy for Change.doc 4.0 Financial Implications 4.1 Building Schools for the Future will bring very substantial funding to the City. At the Remit meeting the Authority proposed that BSF in Wolverhampton should be a single programme of £300 million, subject to suitable phasing, not two programmes of £150 million with potentially a significant time gap between them. This proposal has been accepted. 4.2 There will be revenue costs, over 3 years, of up to approximately £3.5 million, associated with BSF planning and procurement. These will need to be met locally. 5.0 Equality Impact Assessment and Environmental Implications 5.1 These are also significant. It is essential that the strategy for change which underpins BSF in Wolverhampton is in line with the Children and Young People’s Plan, and so improves access and opportunity for the most disadvantaged and vulnerable groups. 5.2 Within the BSF programme, there will be 27 ongoing projects which will all have a potential impact on equality and, for this reason, the BSF programme team has identified and requested the key data required at top level to establish the current position and inform the Equality Impact Assessment. 5.3 We are currently waiting for the most up to date pupil information which will be available at the end of October, as pupil movement (in terms of residential address and secondary school attended) can change radically from one year’s intake to the next. 5.4 This will enable us to highlight any existing equality impacts and to model some generic possible future impacts which can then be used in order to further assess, and consult about, the specific impact of individual projects as part of the visioning process with schools. In addition, investment on this scale must give high priority to sustainability, as well as providing flexible and high quality facilities for learning and extended provision. At a recent meeting PfS officers were informed that additional resources would be provided through BSF to achieve a ‘zero carbon footprint’ for all new build. 6.0 Key Decision 6.1 This is a key decision which has been included in the Forward Plan.

  • Black Country Secondary Schools, Published in 2008, 2009 and 2010, Were Well Received
    Contents Introduction 3 Using the Families of Schools document 7 Black Country in context 11 Family pages 16 Contextual family pages 34 Annex 1 – What it all means: footnotes and explanations 39 Annex 2 – School contact details 45 2 Introduction 1. Families of Schools: the fourth edition The first three editions of Families of Schools for Black Country Secondary schools, published in 2008, 2009 and 2010, were well received. We have been working with schools and education professionals across the Black Country to develop this fourth edition for 2011. As with previous years, this edition includes GCSE results with and without English and maths, a Contextual Value Added (CVA) measure and contextual families focusing on English as an Additional Language (EAL) and mobility. 2. How have families been grouped? Schools are grouped into families based on an average of prior attainment data and context data. Prior attainment data is the Average Key Stage 2 (KS2) Point Score (APS) for all pupils in Year 7 to Year 11 matched to Key Stage 4 data. Context data includes: • Income Deprivation Affecting Children Index (IDACI) data, calculated by linking individual pupil postcodes to IDACI data and compiling an average figure for each school1. • The proportion of pupils eligible to receive Free School Meals (FSM). • The IDACI and FSM school averages are combined to give an overall indicator for the School Environment (SE). • The percentage of pupils whose first language is known or believed to be other than English (EAL). • A mobility measure, defined as the percentage of pupils in Year 10 or Year 11 who have joined the school within the last 2 years (L2Y).

  • Impact of Building Schools for the Future Announcement of Monday 5 July 2010
    Impact of Building Schools for the Future announcement of Monday 5 July 2010 1. This list sets out the impact on schools of the announcement on Building Schools for the Future (BSF) made by the Secretary of State for Education on Monday 5 July 2010. It has been produced by Partnerships for Schools (PfS) after validation at senior level in Local Authorities and rigorously checked by the Department for Education, including by making telephone contact with every Local Authority listed and with all affected Academy sponsors. 2. This process of checking has been necessary because of the complexity of the BSF process, to ensure the accuracy of this list and, in particular, because, to date, PfS has collected data from Local Authorities about BSF schools as they progressed. Rather than micromanaging individual schools, PfS has relied on Local Authority-level information. 3. All Local Authorities which were participating in BSF are listed, plus those who have had one school pathfinders or academies built or being built through the Partnerships for Schools Academies Framework. That is 102 Local Authorities out of a total of 152. And every school which was included within a Local Authority project is listed and is categorised as either ‘open’, ‘unaffected’, ‘for discussion’ or ‘stopped’. 1592 schools are listed in total. 159 are categorised as ‘open’, 547 as ‘unaffected’, 151 as ‘for discussion’ and 735 as ‘stopped’. 4. For simplicity, and because large numbers of pupils cross constituency boundaries to attend school, this list does not provide a breakdown of schools by constituency. 5. There are many examples of Local Authorities in this list having schools in more than one of these categories.

Schedule of Background Papers None Hard to Place Pupil Protcol – Draft [July 04 05] 1 HARD TO PLACE PUPIL PROTOCOL (DRAFT) 1.0 Background 1.1 The DfES issued the Circular, Guidance on Hard To Place Pupils (LEA/0316/2004) in November 2004 requiring two areas for action. These were: i) that the local Admissions Forum develop a protocol on the admission of hard to place pupils; ii) that work be undertaken on delegating or devolving funding to groups of schools to enable them to take responsibility for managing difficult pupils and making alternative provision where necessary. 1.2 The first of these elements has been undertaken and the draft Protocol is attached at Appendix 1 for the Cabinet's consideration. 1.3 The second required action is part of a much larger piece of work which is underway and the elements of this are detailed in Appendix 2. 1.4 As the Hard To Place Pupils Protocol is intended to relate to the placement of secondary pupils in the first instance, the deliberations and consultations have been held with secondary colleagues and teacher associations, though when this was presented to the SIP Board and Schools' Forum, primary headteachers expressed an interest in considering this as an option once it had been introduced to the secondary sector.

  • Edubase URN UCAS Apply Centre Code Type School Name DFE Code
