Summary The Department for Education (DfE) is working collaboratively with selected Local Authorities to establish new schools that fit within the local authorities’ strategies for children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) and those requiring alternative provision. This opportunity is intended to identify and meet untapped demand for special and alternative provision free schools as a supplement to LAs’ existing resources. If a strong proposal is received by a trust that both the Local Authority and the Secretary of State wish to take forward, DfE will provide capital funding and start-up grants subject to value for money assessments. This document sets out the key information regarding the schools that Warwickshire County Council will be establishing alongside DfE. Trusts should use the information within this document, alongside the engagement events, to determine whether they would like to apply to open the school, and to base their application on. 2. Key dates 24 July 2018 Special and AP free schools wave is launched – the guidance and criteria for local authorities seeking to establish new special or alternative provision free schools is published. Announcement of successful LA bids. Competitions in successful areas subsequently open. Deadline for proposers to submit applications in successful areas.

  • 1 Rugby Local Plan Second Stage Hearing Matter 13 – Secondary
    Rugby Local Plan Second Stage Hearing Matter 13 – Secondary Education Provision Question In the light of the statement on secondary education to be submitted by the Council at the end of February 2018, does the RBLP make adequate provision for additional secondary education facilities to meet the needs arising from the housing growth proposed over the plan period to 2031? Hearing Statement 1 Neither the statement provided by the county council on 7 March (OTH38) nor the statement of common ground signed by the county council on 21 January (OTH10) provide an assurance that the secondary education needs of children living in the Grandborough and Willoughby areas, including any future housing on the Lodge Farm site, will have adequate provision over the plan period. As we lie so far from Rugby whenever any school is over-subscribed we are amongst the first to be excluded through the operation of catchment areas. 2 Grandborough and Willoughby are in the Ashlawn School priority area. However it has been many years since children in our villages who failed the 11-plus have been able to get into their priority area school. For the September 2018 entry the catchment area for Ashlawn School has a radius of only 0.763 miles. 13 years ago, when we moved to Grandborough, my own two daughters began attending Schools in Southam as there was no option or availability of spaces in Rugby, fortunately there was space in Southam but, I understand, this is no-longer the case. 3 The opening of Rugby Free Secondary School has provided some relief.

    Remote Learning The Midland Academies Trust Approach to Remote Learning (Our Remote Learning Offer) Introduction: This information is intended to provide clarity and transparency to pupils and parents or carers about what to expect from remote education if local restrictions require entire cohorts (or bubbles) to remain at home. This document also outlines details of what to expect where individual pupils are self-isolating. The Trust and its academies remain committed to delivering the full Trust five-year curriculum offer including when pupils are working remotely. Parents and pupils can access further information about the work they need to complete and the support available during any period of remote learning by visiting our school websites: The George Eliot School: http://www.george-eliot.warwickshire.sch.uk/ Hartshill School: http://www.hartshill.warwickshire.sch.uk/ Heath Lane Academy: http://www.hla.leics.sch.uk/ The Nuneaton Academy: http://www.nuneatonacademy.co.uk/ In addition to remote learning, we also have a range of other policies and procedures in place to safeguard pupils working from home this includes the following: • Acceptable User Policy for the use of our devices. • Behaviour Policy • E-safety guidance for parents. • Safeguarding procedures • Pastoral support Contact details and links for support and can be found on the school websites. The remote curriculum What is taught to pupils at home? Our schools and Trust subject network have developed a plan for curriculum delivery that aligns remote learning to our overall curriculum plan. Pupils learning from home will not be disadvantaged by not being in school. A pupil’s first day or two of being educated remotely might look different from our standard approach, while we take all necessary actions to prepare for a longer period of remote teaching.
