The plan focuses on three overarching outcomes, which are: children to feel safe and are safe; children to enjoy good health and emotional wellbeing and children to recognise and achieve their potential The Education and Skills Plan acknowledges the importance of school place planning in achieving these outcomes through the: effective supply of mainstream places to meet community needs; creation of a sustainable and coherent estate for life-long learning; development of an infrastructure in which all providers can quickly adapt to new opportunities and New modern ‘teaching wall’ installed at Grange Lane Primary School provision of choice of high quality educational establishments for all our children and young people We know from talking to children and head teachers that providing modern and vibrant learning environments helps foster a sense of pride and has a positive impact on learning and behaviour. This is why we have invested over £85m in developing the schools’ estate over the last three years, which includes £45m Priority School Building Programme funding (PSBP) and £26.6m on the Building Schools for the Future project. As part of PSBP seven schools and academies will be rebuilt, which means that over 3,630 pupils will be attending a brand new school or academy by September 2017. Working in close partnership with school leaders, North Lincolnshire has an excellent track record of offering parents their first preference school. Despite increased pressure on school places in the primary sector, North Lincolnshire was ranked 11th best authority in England in 2016 for offering parents their highest preference school. I would like to thank school leaders for their help in achieving this positive outcome for all our children. We will continue to invest in our schools’ estate and use our funding to make sure we have a sufficient supply of school places in the right locations. If you have any thoughts on school organisation proposals, local authority officers will be pleased to discuss these with you. Cllr David Rose Cabinet Member for Children Families and Learning Executive summary Primary School Estate: Over recent years we have experienced growth in demand for primary school places. The total number of pupils in the primary sector has risen steadily from its lowest point in 2010 (12,348) to date (13,552), representing a growth of 1,204 pupils or (10%). Looking beyond 2016, growth in pupil numbers is expected to increase until 2018. Thereafter there will be a slight decrease over the following 3 years. In addition to population growth there are 72 approved strategic housing allocations / approved planning applications which could yield up to 1,600+ additional primary school places in existing planning areas; and the creation of new planning areas (Lincolnshire Lakes) could yield up to 1,500+ additional primary school places. Although it is proposed that three new primary schools will be built to meet demand for the Lincolnshire Lakes development, it is likely the nearby Scunthorpe primary schools will be required to accommodate additional pupils during the early phase of house building, prior to the new schools opening. The Scunthorpe planning areas are currently experiencing pressure on school places and consideration of further basic need investment is required. Barton Town has sufficient capacity to meet overall demand, but individual year groups are oversubscribed and the proposed housing developments will put further pressure across the planning area’s estate. Consideration of further basic need investment is required. Secondary School Estate: The anticipated total number on roll in North Lincolnshire is set to rise from 8,849 in 2016 to 9839 in 2023 (990 increase). The recent growth in numbers in the primary sector will start to feed through to the secondary sector and increase pressure on places. In addition to larger year groups, inward migration as a result of major housing developments will increase the demand on school places. Currently there are 72 identified strategic housing allocations / approved planning applications that could yield a further 1,300+ places and the Lincolnshire Lakes Development could yield a further 1,200+ pupils. It is proposed that existing local secondary schools will be expanded to meet increasing demand from the housing developments (including Lincolnshire Lakes). The Scunthorpe planning areas are currently experiencing pressure on school places and consideration of further basic need investment is required. Even without the housing developments, the equilibrium between supply and demand will be reached in 2020 and then be exceeded in future years. The Humber UTC opened in September 2015 for year 10-13 pupils (published admission number of 150). The anticipated admissions to the UTC for September 2016 into Y10 and Y12 is lower than the 2015 figures. The lower cohorts choosing to transfer to the UTC in year 9, means it has little impact on contributing to the solution for larger cohorts moving up from the primary sector. John Leggott College is in the process of establishing a 14-16 provision for September 2016 which may impact on future year 10 and 11 pupils in the local secondary schools. Similarly to the UTC, this will not impact on the solution for children moving into year 7. 1.1 Introduction The aim of the School Organisational Needs Assessment (SONA) is to help the local authority (LA) and the wider community understand the future demand for mainstream school places. The document provides the essential data-sets to help support and justify options for developing the schools’ estate. The plan itself does not routinely identify individual schools for change, but considers the future needs on a planning area basis. Where necessary, detailed option appraisals / feasibility studies may be developed thereafter. This assessment sets out the framework within which the LA will consider the organisation of school places and helps evidence the need for capital investment. The assessment includes detailed demographic information, and identifies a number of other issues that may have a significant impact on the need for school places. The information within this document is based on 2016 data, and will be updated annually. The document presents planning data over the longest possible planning horizon so that the LA, schools and other key stakeholders are able to take well informed, long-term, strategic decisions, aimed at securing the best possible outcomes for all our children. The requirement for a clear, over- arching organisation plan, whilst not statutory, is certainly important. A series of fundamental changes in legislation and national policy have changed the role of the local authority from being the sole provider of services to schools, to being both a provider and commissioner of education and children’s services. Our strategic aim is for all children and young people to have access to a good quality school place within their catchment area. 1.2 About this document The phrase ‘school organisational needs assessment’ refers to the process which is undertaken to map out how the local authority is able to match the ever changing demands for school1 places to our current supply of school places. Where the assessment identifies an imbalance between supply and demand, action is proposed to identify suitable solutions. The document is organised into the following four parts: Part 1: Background: The first part of the document describes the key factors relevant to place planning. Part 2: Needs assessment primary school place planning: The second part of the document looks at the 8 primary school planning areas with the aim of identifying whether there is sufficient number of school places to accommodate forecasted pupil numbers. 1 The word ‘school’ is generally used through this document to refer to any approved provider of mainstream school education, whether an academy or maintained schools. Where it is deemed appropriate to draw a distinction between academies and schools, then the appropriate category has been applied. 1 Part 3: Needs assessment secondary school place planning: The third part of the document looks at the 6 secondary school planning areas with the purpose of identifying whether there is sufficient number of school places to accommodate forecasted pupil numbers.

  • Annual Report 2016
    Chairman’s Message The times, they are a-changing, as a certain Mr Dylan said many years ago. The voluntary sector is being asked, if not driven, to be more commercial as there are fewer and fewer grants available, and those that are still around are being targeted at more and more specific areas of work. I would ask the funders, government and others: Is commercial really better in the sphere that the voluntary sector occupies? That is the delivery of support and services to people and communities where there is no profit and much disadvantage! Does this philosophy run the risk of eroding the difference factor the sector brings? Such as its closeness to the service user, its focus on meeting the needs as defined by that person, the filling of gaps and making of links? VANL’s core activity, which is advice, support and liaison and representation for the voluntary sector (which has always been the core work of councils for voluntary service), is now no longer considered a priority for funding locally, which means with sadness we have to announce that VANL’s service to its members and clients is changing. Thanks to the withdrawal of our core funding, we now have to charge for most of our services. This has happened since the end of the financial year in question here, but we need all our customers to be aware that if you need our services, you may be charged for the work. We are of course keeping charges as low as we possibly can, and seeking to reduce the cost burden on our already-overstretched sector by finding new ways to earn income to subsidise our support.

    LBP0018 Written evidence submitted by The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium Education Select Committee Left behind white pupils from disadvantaged backgrounds Inquiry SUBMISSION FROM THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE EDUCATION CONSORTIUM Introduction and summary of recommendations Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium are a group of organisations with focus on education and disadvantage campaigning in the North of England, including SHINE, Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) and Tutor Trust. This is a joint submission to the inquiry, acting together as ‘The Northern Powerhouse Education Consortium’. We make the case that ethnicity is a major factor in the long term disadvantage gap, in particular white working class girls and boys. These issues are highly concentrated in left behind towns and the most deprived communities across the North of England. In the submission, we recommend strong actions for Government in particular: o New smart Opportunity Areas across the North of England. o An Emergency Pupil Premium distribution arrangement for 2020-21, including reform to better tackle long-term disadvantage. o A Catch-up Premium for the return to school. o Support to Northern Universities to provide additional temporary capacity for tutoring, including a key role for recent graduates and students to take part in accredited training. About the Organisations in our consortium SHINE (Support and Help IN Education) are a charity based in Leeds that help to raise the attainment of disadvantaged children across the Northern Powerhouse. Trustees include Lord Jim O’Neill, also a co-founder of SHINE, and Raksha Pattni. The Northern Powerhouse Partnership’s Education Committee works as part of the Northern Powerhouse Partnership (NPP) focusing on the Education and Skills agenda in the North of England.
