  • 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.

These factors are set out in general terms in the Authority’s publication “Your New School – A Guide for Parents” available free of charge from schools, the Learning and Child Care Office and public libraries in North East Lincolnshire. APPEALS 4) • The form – Notice of Appeal – accompanying this leaflet should be completed by the parents and sent to: Admissions at Tollbar MAT, Station Road, New Waltham, Grimsby DN36 4RZ • The receipt of the form will be acknowledged. • Appellants have 28 days from the date of notification that their application was unsuccessful to prepare and lodge their written appeal. • Parents will subsequently be informed of the time and place of the appeal hearing.
