    Agenda Item 11 Regulatory and Other Committee Open report on behalf of Debbie Barnes, Executive Director of Children's Services Report to: Schools Forum Date: 4th October 2017 Subject: Alternative Provision Arrangements Summary: The purpose of this report is to provide an overview of Lincolnshire's current and future Alternative Provision arrangements. Recommendation(s): The Schools Forum is asked to note the content of the report. Background 1. Context and Background Information Alternative provision is commonly defined as education outside school, arranged by local authorities or schools themselves. It can be something in which a young person participates as part of their regular timetable, away from the school site or the pupil referral unit (in Lincolnshire, Springwell Lincoln Academy) and not led by school staff. Schools are encouraged to use such provision to try to prevent exclusions, or to re-engage pupils in their education. Many secondary schools in Lincolnshire use AP in this way, dual registering pupils for behavioural intervention or to follow vocational pathways. Centres include Acorn Free School (Lincoln), Bridge House (Boston), First Steps (Boston), Build a Future (West Ashby), Good Apple (Gainsborough), Hill Holt (Norton Disney), and in N. Lincs, Fluent Coaching (Brigg). The current Ofsted Handbook requires inspectors to "find out how (AP) is monitored and evaluated, both day to day and over time. An inspector should visit the unit briefly to assess safeguarding procedures, the quality of teaching and how effectively the unit helps to improve pupils' behaviour, learning and attendance. The visit should be proportionate to the number of pupils who attend and the length of time they spend there…..Inspectors should give priority to visiting unregistered providers." Page 63 To support and guide those inclusive schools that commission AP to avoid exclusion and re-engage disaffected pupils, LCC has published 'Alternative Provision Guidance for Commissioners', downloadable from www.lincolnshirechildren.net within the Inclusive Lincolnshire microsite.

Members have remained heavily reliant on the work of the RE Adviser, who despite a reduction in hours has still been able to provide information and advice based on visits to schools and involvement in training. SACRE continues to receive information about Ofsted’s evaluation of pupils’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development, although members remain concerned about the lack of consistency in many of these reports. Co-operation with the Diocese, including information about Section 48 inspections has been invaluable, although members are sensitive to the increased pressure on time and resources within the Diocese. The growth in the number of Lincolnshire schools seeking academy status has inevitably weakened SACRE’s direct contact with them. Many still use the Agreed Syllabus as the basis of their work, and they are offered the opportunity of continuing to make use of training activities provided and the guidance of the Adviser.

    SIR ROBERT PATTINSON ACADEMY ADMISSIONS POLICY 2022-2023 entry Date Reviewed in School: October 2020 Date Approved by Governors: 9 November 2020 Review Date: September 2021 ADMISSIONS POLICY Sir Robert Pattinson Academy is an equal opportunities education provider.

In accordance with legislation the allocation of places for children with the following will take place first; Statement of Special Educational Needs (Education Act 1996) or Education, Health and Care Plan (Children and Families Act 2014) where the school is named.

We have received regular reports at meetings both of Ofsted inspections and of school visits by our RE Adviser, Wendy Harrison, together with parallel and co-operative work by the Diocese. SACRE has been able to fill some vacancies during the year and we are still taking action to replace a few members who have recently left us. I am grateful to all the members for their active interest and support. Despite the loss of direct contact between the Local Authority and schools which have adopted academy status we are still in positive communication with many of the latter and able to offer relevant support. Members have found presentations from individual schools of particular value as we seek to encourage the sharing of good practice. The reports of links being developed between a few Lincolnshire schools with partners in urban Leicester has been of special interest.
