Need for Additional Secondary School Places 2015-2024 Status Subject: Need for Additional Secondary School Status: For Publication Places 2015-2024 Report to : Heywood Township Committee Date: Monday, 14 July 2014 Pennines Township Committee Tuesday,15 July 2014 Rochdale Township Committee Wednesday, 16 July 2014 Middleton Township Committee Thursday, 17th July 2014 Cabinet Member: Cabinet member for Children Schools and Families Report of: Director- Children’s Services Author: Chris Swift School Organisation & Development Author Email: [email protected] Manager Tel: 01706 925016 Comments from Statutory Officers: Key Decision: No 1 Purpose of Report 1.1 The purpose of this report is to enable the Township Committees to give their views on the need for extra secondary school places from 2015 to 2019. 2 Recommendations 2.1 The Township Committees are asked to consider this report and to make such Comments as appropriate on the following proposals:- * For Heywood Township up to an extra 30 Year 7 places are provided from 2017, either at Siddal Moor or Holy Family RC CE College; * For Middleton Township an extra 30 Year 7 places are provided at each of St.Anne’s Academy from 2017 and Cardinal Langley RC High School from 2016; * For Pennines Township an 30 extra places at each of Wardle Academy and Hollingworth Academy from 2015-2017, and further extra places for 2018 and 2019 are considered in the light of capacity in Pennines Township and proposals for extra places in Rochdale Township; * For Rochdale Township an extra 60 places will be needed to meet Township demand in 2018 and 2019. The 4 schools in Rochdale Township to be possibly considered for the extra 30 places each are Falinge Park, Kingsway Park, Matthew Moss, and St.Cuthberts’ RC. Consideration also needs to be given to a further 60 extra places to meet growth across Pennines and Rochdale Townships for 2018 and 2019. Reason for recommendation 2.2 There is a need to consider providing additional Year 7 Secondary School places from 2015 across all townships in the Borough. The Local Authority convened a stakeholder working group to look at the issues, to put forward proposals to meet the demand and to consult publicly on them. 3 Background 3.1 The number of children expected to require Year 7 places in secondary schools across the Borough is expected to increase from 2,263 this school year to an estimated 2,819 by September 2019. The level of demand varies across the Borough and in some areas will continue beyond 2020. Attached to this report is a copy of the consultation report. The report puts forward a number of options to make sure there will be sufficient extra places to allow for parental preference and future within-year movements. The view of the working group is that extra places can be provided by expansion on current school sites. Alternatives considered 3. 2 The Consultation Report attached puts forward a number of proposals to meet the demand for extra Year 7 places from 2015 onwards. There is an analysis, by Township, of these demand pressures, admissions trends and proposals to meet the increase in demand. The appendices to the report provide additional relevant information as follows: Appendix One - Map of secondary schools in the Borough; Appendix Two - How many children are in our Secondary Schools at present (Jan.2014) Appendix Three - Current Physical and Admission capacities of Schools and diversity of Provision Appendix Four- A. How the pupil projections are developed B. School Capacity Data and Accommodation C. Housing Developments Appendix Five- Standards in Schools Appendix Six- School Place Demand- Admissions Preferences and Appeals 2011-2014 Appendix Seven- Equalities Impact Assessment Appendix Eight- Consultation response pro-formas 3.3 The Consultation Report shows that across the Borough there will be an increase in the number of Year 7 pupils in the secondary sector. Overall, there is enough space in the Borough’s 12 secondary schools to accommodate all that growth until 2017, after then more places will be needed. The graph below shows the Boroughwide position to 2019: School year 2013/14 2014/15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19 2019-20 Year 7 Places 2550 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 Expected Pupils 2263 2382 2560 2533 2614 2769 2819 Extra Places Needed Enough places overall -4 -159 -209 3.4 The focus of the consultation report is the period 2015-2019, however it is important to consider the longer term increase in demand to 2024, where it is clear that further additional places will be needed. The graph below shows the overall demand and it reflects the current trend for a net loss in pupil numbers between Year6 and Year 7 each year of about 6%. The Township movement trends are described in the consultation report. 2013/14 2013/14 2014/15 2015/16 2016/17 2019/20 2020/21 2021/22 2022/23 2023/24 2024/25 BOROUGH 2011/12 2012/13 2017/18 2018/19 Year 6 Pupils 2468 2420 2392 2447 2622 2614 2693 2847 2892 2902 2942 2963 2982 2967 Year 7 Expected Pupils 2382 2560 2533 2614 2769 2819 2828 2805 2857 2866 2839 Year 7 Places 2570 2550 2550 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 2610 Extra Places Needed enough places overall -4 -159 -209 -218 -215 -247 -256 -229 3.5 Further consideration will be given in future years to extra secondary places from 2020 to 2024, taking account of the extra places that will be provided between now and then and any changes in demographic demand, or school organisation. 4 Financial Implications 4.1 Funding for additional school places is available through the Capital Allocation for Basic Needs from the Education Funding Agency. The current funding announcement covers the period to March 2018, and further funding is expected as part of the next funding settlement. Revenue funding for additional places will come through the Dedicated Schools Grant, which is ring-fenced for schools and largely determined by pupil numbers. As plans for the delivery of the required additional places are confirmed, further reports will be submitted, with further details of costs and funding. 5 Legal Implications 5.1 The Council has a statutory duty to ensure that there are sufficient school places for the number of school age pupils within the borough requesting a place in a secondary school. The Authority is also the strategic commissioner for new school places within its area. If new schools are proposed, current legislation sets out the arrangements for the establishment of new schools. The Local Authority will have a responsibility to provide additional school sites as and when required. 6 Personnel Implications 6.1 There are no direct personnel implications arising from this report. However, in the event that school(s) require additional staff to meet the increased future demands, the appropriate formal consultation will need to take place to amend their structures. 7 Corporate Priorities 7.1 The Proposals for consideration are consistent with the Corporate Priorities of People, Place, Prosperity & Public Service Reform as described in the Early Help and Schools Service Plan 2014-15 : EHS15 “Ensure that school place planning meets statutory requirements”. 8. Risk Assessment Implications 8.1 There are a number of risks to be considered in developing a strategy for additional secondary school places: * Independent promoters bringing forward proposals for new school places which are not consistent with addressing the strategic need for additional places or the achievement of the objectives of the BSF Strategy for Change; * The availability, timing and level of significant capital funding from the Education Funding Agency to support 11-16 basic need may not be sufficient to meet the aspirations of providers ; * Whether schools and/or post 16 providers wish to collaborate in bringing forward proposals; * The longer term (post 2019) scale of additional demand for places in Middleton and the Rochdale/Pennines Townships. 9. Equalities Impacts 9.1 Workforce Equality Impacts Assessment There are no workforce equality issues arising from this report. 9.2 Equality/Community Impact Assessments The Equality Impact Assessment (EIA) is attached as Appendix Seven in the Consultation Report. The main points arising from the EIA are: * The additional secondary school places will improve parental preference in the Borough as well as ensuring that the Authority can meet its duty to provide enough school places. * Cabinet will be recommended to consider the report of the Working Group and the strategy to meet the increase in demand Background Papers Document Place of Inspection There are no background papers to this report ROCHDALE MBC EARLY HELP and SCHOOLS CONSULTATION REPORT ON THE NEED FOR EXTRA YEAR 7 ADMISSION PLACES BETWEEN 2015-2019 SECONDARY PLACE PLANNING GROUP 2nd June 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is a need to consider providing additional secondary places across the Borough from September 2015 onwards. The Local Authority has set up a Working Group to consider this and to formulate proposals for public consultation. In brief the number of children wanting Year 7 places in the Borough’s secondary schools will rise from 2,263 this school year to an estimated 2,819 by September 2019. The level of demand varies across the Borough, and in some areas growth will continue beyond 2020. The focus of the report covers the period to September 2019. The report puts forward a number of options to make sure that there are enough places to meet the minimum demand as well as enough extra places to allow for parental preference and future within year movements. The view of the Working Group is that extra places can be provided by expansion on current school sites. The purpose of the consultation is to seek the views of interested parties on the proposals set out in the report, which can include alternative ideas to meet the need for extra places.

  • Rochdale Borough Council Community Secondary Schools
    Determination Case reference: ADA3560 Objector: A parent Admission authority: Rochdale Borough Council for community secondary schools in Rochdale Date of decision: 27 June 2019 Determination In accordance with section 88H(4) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, I do not uphold the objection to the admission arrangements for September 2020 determined by Rochdale Borough Council for community secondary schools in Rochdale. The referral 1. Under section 88H(2) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998 (the Act) an objection has been referred to the adjudicator by a parent (the objector) about the admission arrangements (the arrangements) for the community secondary schools in Rochdale for September 2020. The objection is that the priority given to children on the basis of the proximity of their homes to the nearest school is unfair to some pupils. 2. The parties to this objection are the objector and Rochdale Borough Council (the local authority). Jurisdiction 3. These arrangements were determined under section 88C of the Act on 25 February 2019 by the local authority, which is the admission authority for the schools. The objector submitted her objection to these determined arrangements on 2 May 2019. I am satisfied the objection has been properly referred to me in accordance with section 88H of the Act and it is within my jurisdiction. 4. Regulation 22 of The School Admissions (Admission Arrangements and Co- ordination of Admission Arrangements) (England) Regulations 2012 says “For the purposes of section 88H(5)(d), where the adjudicator has determined an objection to the admission arrangements of a school or Academy, no objection may be referred to the adjudicator raising the same or substantially the same issues in relation to those admission arrangements within 2 years of the decision by the adjudicator.” Determination REF3486 made by the adjudicator in December 2018 considered similar issues to those in this objection.

Families of Schools: the fifth edition The first four editions of Families of Schools for Greater Manchester Secondary schools were well received. We have been working with schools and education professionals across Greater Manchester to develop this fifth 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 school 1. • 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).

  • Alcohol, Self Esteem and Aspirations 2
    Alcohol, Self-Esteem and Aspiration: Exploring the context of young peoples’ sexual health risk taking Kate Kennedy and Mark Limmer October 2007 Risky drinking and sexual behaviour continues to be seen as a particular problem for those working around teenage pregnancy, alcohol and sexual health and this reflects broader public health concerns in relation to rates of sexually transmitted infection (STI) and binge drinking. This study explores alcohol and sexual health and the links between them for 14-15 year olds. Building upon knowledge gained in the 2004 survey (Redgrave and Limmer, 2005) the scope of the study has broadened to investigate the links between alcohol, sexual health and self-esteem in this group; as well as looking in more detail at the impact of Sex and Relationships Education and other sources of information on the knowledge, attitudes and behaviour of young people in relation to sex and alcohol. Questionnaires completed by over 80% of Rochdale’s Year 10 pupils highlight patterns in knowledge, attitudes and behaviour in addition to allowing comparisons with the 2004 data. Focus groups reveal the way young people perceive their Sex and Relationships Education (SRE) in school, and the informal sources of information accessed by this age group. Vulnerable groups are identified based on important differences linked to gender, ethnicity, aspiration and risk taking behaviour. Key Findings Alcohol Sex There have been significant improvements in One quarter of the sample reported having alcohol knowledge scores since 2004 had sexual intercourse – less than in the 90% of white young people have ever drunk 2004 survey alcohol and the majority of these have been Early sexual intercourse is associated with drunk at some point; however the figures show low self-esteem and low aspirations in both fewer young people drinking and being drunk genders than in 2004 Most young people know where to get There is a cohort of young people who can be condoms from and why they should be used, seen as problematic drinkers.

  • Report of the Secondary Place Planning Group on the Need for Extra Year 7 Admission Places Between 2015-2019
    EARLY HELP and SCHOOLS REPORT OF THE SECONDARY PLACE PLANNING GROUP ON THE NEED FOR EXTRA YEAR 7 ADMISSION PLACES BETWEEN 2015-2019 November 2014 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is a need to consider providing additional secondary places across the Borough from September 2015 onwards. The Local Authority has set up a Stakeholder Working Group to consider this and to formulate proposals for public consultation. This Report follows the end of that consultation and puts forward proposals to meet the increased demand for extra Year 7 Secondary School places in the period to September 2019 The number of children wanting Year 7 places in the Borough’s secondary schools will rise from 2,263 this school year to an estimated 2,819 by September 2019. The level of demand varies across the Borough, and in some areas growth will continue beyond 2020. The focus of the report covers the period to September 2019. The report puts forward a number of proposals to make sure that there are enough places to meet the minimum demand as well as enough extra places to allow for parental preference and future within year movements. The view of the Working Group is that extra places can be provided by expansion on current school sites. Where applicable, the implementation of proposals is subject to the support of own admission authority schools, their Trusts and Diocesan Authorities.
