Children’s Services Overview and Scrutiny Panel Minutes of the Meeting Held on Thursday 20 September 2012 Present: Mrs J Chamberlin (Chairman) Mr R Bearman Mr P Morse Dr A Boswell Mr W Nunn Mr J Carswell Mr M Scutter M Chenery of Horsbrugh Mr B Spratt Mr S Dorrington Miss J Virgo Mr S Hutson Mr P Wells Mr M Kiddle-Morris Ms S Whitaker Mrs J Leggett Parent Governor Representative: Mr P East Dr L Poliakoff Non-voting Schools Forum Representative: Dr B Carrington Non-Voting Cabinet Member: Mrs A Thomas Children’s Services Non-Voting Deputy Cabinet Members: Mr P Hardy Education Non-Voting Co-Opted Advisors: Mrs S Cooke Primary Education Ms C Smith Secondary Education Other Members in attendance: Dr M Strong Local Member for Wells 1. Apologies and substitutions 1.1 Apologies were received from Mr B Collins (M Chenery of Horsbrugh attending), Mr R Hanton, Mr J Mooney (Mr B Spratt substituting), Mr A Mash and Mr T Garrod. 2. Minutes 2.1 The minutes of the meeting held on 5 July 2012 were considered. It was noted that a question had been asked around exclusion rates to which a written response had not been given. It was agreed that this response would be added to the minutes as an additional question. With this amendment the minutes were agreed by the Panel and signed as an accurate record of the meeting. Later in the meeting it was confirmed that this information would be included in the November Performance and Finance Monitoring Report, when updated datasets would be available. 3. Declarations of Interests 3.1 There were no declarations of interest. 4. Items of Urgent Business 4.1 There were no items of urgent business. 5. Public Question Time 5.1 There were no public questions. 6. Local Member Issues/Member Questions 6.1 The Local Member for Wells commented on item 14 of the agenda, saying that the funding formula was an urban formula which was being applied to a rural county. This was especially having an impact on rural high schools. It was important to manage public perception of these changes. 7. Exclusion of the Public 7.1 The Panel was advised that, with regard to item 8: ‘Young People in Norfolk – views of Norfolk today’, the Panel would need to consider whether to exclude the public for the duration of the DVD. 7.2 The Director of Children’s Services presented the public interest test, as required by the 2006 Access to Information Regulations for the consideration of the Panel as follows: 7.3 “Video evidence of fifty young people from across Norfolk who identify as black, Asian or minority ethnic, disabled, Muslim or who are questioning their sexual or gender identity, talking about what life is like in Norfolk today for young people from these groups. This information is considered to be exempt under Paragraphs 1 and 2 of part 1 of Schedule 12 A to Local Government Act 1972 (‘Information relating to any individual’ and ‘Information that is likely to reveal the identity of an individual’). It is considered that the public interest in disclosing this information is outweighed by the public interest in non-disclosure, including recognition of the need for privacy for the individuals who are shown in the film, and who agreed to talk about their identity for the purposes of staff training.” 7.4 RESOLVED that the public be excluded whilst the DVD was shown. 8. Young People in Norfolk – views of Norfolk today 8.1 The Panel viewed a DVD which highlighted the perception of Norfolk by young people in minority groups. 9. Cabinet Member Feedback 9.1 The Cabinet Member for Children’s Services reported that a new apprenticeship programme had been launched in September, with many training providers and businesses present. The number of young people who attended had been encouraging and it was hope that this would be the start of a successful project. 9.2 GCSE and A level results had improved again. The Cabinet Member noted that work had taken place to identify pupils that had been disadvantaged by the situation, and confirmed that 475 had been identified in Norfolk. A letter had been written to the government minister and copied to Norfolk MP’s highlighting the issues. Colleges had taken predicted grades into consideration and were encouraging students to resit the exam. It was confirmed that all members would be supportive of this lobbying, and that as Corporate Parents they should be informed if any Looked After Children had been disadvantaged. The Cabinet Member agreed to confirm the situation with LAC.

  • (SEND) & Alternative Provision (AP) Transformation Programme
    Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) & Alternative Provision (AP) Transformation Programme Consultation Workshops April 2019 In October 2018, the Norfolk County Council (NCC) Policy and Resources Committee Report, pages 20-41 led to the development of the SEND and Alternative Provision Transformation Programme. The Programme includes a workstream for SEND support & Inclusion and Infrastructure and New Provision. In April 2019 we held three stakeholder workshops to explore: 1. the current provision for SEND pupils in Norfolk and 2. how £120m could be invested to secure better and improved provision across the state funded sector in Norfolk. The workshops were attended by a wide range of delegates, representing the full local area system of support for children and young people with SEND, across education, health and social care. The full delegation list for the workshops can be found in the appendices. The workshops sparked stimulating and extremely valuable discussion and debate. Key lines of enquiry The workshops challenged delegates to consider: • What are the needs of particular cohorts of children and which of these needs could we reasonably expect to be met from within Norfolk’s mainstream schools, Specialist Units, through to Special Schools and children in the secure estate? • What SEND provision should be in place in each type of educational establishment to meet the needs of its pupils? • What are the risks of pupils falling between gaps within the continuum of provision and how can that be mitigated? • In designing the new special schools and SRBs, what is the desired functionality and layout for the physical buildings? • What would you like the SEND & AP Programme to consider to better meet the needs of pupils with SEND and their families? 1 1.
