Briefing Paper to the North Area Committee Wards : University
17 th July, 2018
Petition - Request for weight Restriction and Chicane on Inglemire Lane from Beverley Road to Cranbrook Avenue Junction
Briefing Paper of the City Manager – Major Projects & Infrastructure
1. Purpose of the Paper and Summary
1.1 A petition has been submitted requesting the implementation of a vehicle weight limit and the provision of a chicane on the section of Inglemire lane between Beverley Road and Cranbrook Avenue. This briefing note provides further relevant information to facilitate informed decision making by the Council as it receives the petition.
2. Background
2.1 The petitioners are concerned about the size, speed and volume of heavy goods vehicles using the section of Inglemire Lane in question.
2,2 The petition was signed by 52 residents of Inglemire Lane. Marydene Drive and Catherine McAuley Close and states:-
The residents of Inglemire Lane request the above as they no longer believe that Inglemire Lane (which is NOT part of the ring road) is capable of handling the ever increasing flow of heavy goods vehicles, and believe it is time for a weight limit to be imposed on this route.
These vehicles are causing serious problems to property, health and safety (there are several schools plus a university along areas of Inglemire Lane) which, at certain times of day is crowded with children and young people.
Substantial sums of taxpayers' money have been invested in repairing and refurbishing Inglemire Lane in 2017; if there is no weight restriction put on the lane, then the concrete carrying lorries and skip lorries, both particularly heavy, will continue to have adverse effect on the road, thus wasting the money already spent. Author: Status: Date: 18/07/2018 Page 1 of 3 Page 15 of 128
Property Residents are constantly upset by the heavy vehicles, especially as their property vibrates when lorries pass along the lane, exacerbated by the lorries travelling too quickly over traffic calming measures already in place, causing small cracks to appear on the walls of their property. A vast amount of the properties on Inglemire Lane were built in the 1920s; their foundations are not to today's standard and not designed to withstand the shaking and tremors felt when the huge speeding lorries career down the lane bouncing over the speed humps.
Inglemire Lane, as previously mentioned is NOT a ring road and therefore not designed to take traffic of this type.
Health and Safety The very fact that homes vibrate and subsequently residents fear the damage that the constant vibration of their homes will cause, such worry leading to stress. The diesel fumes from these lorries cannot be good for the health of residents, or those visiting the area. Inglemire Lane has several schools — Endsleigh Primary, St Mary's College, Newland School for Girls, Frederick Holmes School and Hull University .
3. Issues for Consideration
3.1 The section of Inglemire Lane in question is a traffic calmed 20mph zone with speed cushions and raised tables and has a standard 24ft/7.3m wide carriageway.
3.2 A traffic survey carried out in September 2016 recorded that the average twelve hour (07.00 to 19.00 hours), two-way flow of all vehicles on this section of Inglemire Lane was 4288 of which just 28 were HGVs (0.65%).
3.3 Any recent spike in the volume of HGVs like ‘concrete carrying lorries’ and ‘skip lorries’, as referred to by the petitioners, could be a temporary situation as these vehicles could be connected with the development works currently being carried out within the University site.
3.4 Although Inglemire Lane is not a classified road it is still an important local distributor road. The carriageway is constructed to the same standard as many similar roads in the city and the recent substantial repairs have been carried out to a standard quite capable of accommodating HGVs. . 3.5 The introduction of a weight limit in this type of situation would not prohibit the passage of all vehicles over 7½ tonnes as it would be an environmental weight limit to which there would be a blanket exemption for any vehicle that required access and had legitimate business within the area covered by the restriction, for example for the purposes of loading/unloading or refuse collection.
3.6 If a weight limit was implemented on this section of Inglemire Lane then it may be necessary to provide a traffic signed alternative route with the most suitable being
Author: Status: Date: 18/07/2018 Page 2 of 3 Page 16 of 128
via Beverley Road, Cottingham Road Cranbrook Avenue and vice versa although parts of this route fall within the Beverley and Newland Ward.
3.7 The introduction of a weight limit would require the progression of a traffic regulation order (TRO) and the erection of several illuminated and non-illuminated signs the total cost of which could be approximately £14,000 and substantially more if it was considered necessary to sign an alternative route
3.8 As well as a weight limit the petitioners are also requesting a ‘chicane’. It is assumed that this request refers to a priority working type arrangement. This is where the carriageway is narrowed to one lane by the use of build outs or islands and traffic from one direction must give way to traffic coming from the opposite direction.
3.9 The cost of constructing a ‘chicane’ including the necessary illuminated signs is likely to be in the region of £15,000 although if alterations to the parking restrictions are also needed than a separate TRO would be required at an additional cost of £4,000.
3.10 All the costs associated with implementing a weight limit or any other measures would have to be met from ward or area budgets.
4. Conclusions & Next steps
4,1 The decision to fund and progress any measures in this sort of situation is usually a matter for the ward councillors to decide and take forward with Major Projects & Infrastructure via the Area Schemes process.

Briefing Paper to the North Area Committee Wards : Orchard Park
26 th July 2018
Briefing Paper of the City Neighbourhoods and Housing Manager
Petition titled “Neglect of the Danes”
1. Purpose of the Paper and Summary 1.1 A petition has been received from the residents of Axdane on Orchard Park. The petition relates to the planned external improvement programme on Orchard Park and the fact that there has been a delay in installing external solid wall insulation to properties on Axdane. Residents feel that the Council has long known the special structure of the properties on Axdane and that Axdane has been forgotten. The petition requests that the properties are insulated as soon as possible, as some of the former Right-to-Buy properties already have been. 1.2 The briefing paper provides information about the regeneration of Orchard Park to date including the external improvement programme. It goes on to set out the work undertaken to develop a design for insulation of Council properties on Axdane and the action currently being taken to find a viable solution. 2. Background 2.1 The text from the petition is as follows: “We feel Axdane is getting very neglected. After receiving false information about “planned external improvement works” in a letter dated 20th April 2017, we, the undersigned, are angry at Hull City Council. They have refused to carry out the proposed work on rented houses in Axdane. They claim to have been “researching a proper method of insulation, since a follow-up letter, in September 2017 and yet despite numerous calls by Sue Thompson and Geraldine Rainey, there has been no progress on the matter. The “special” structure of our homes is known to the Housing Department and therefore, since they were built approximately 55 years ago; how long do the council need to devise a modern insulation plan?
Author: Liz Jamil Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 1 of 7 Page 23 of 128 2.3 They have spent a large amount of money on the rest of Orchard Park Estate, but Axdane has lost out yet again. We feel as though everything has been “swept under the carpet” and are disgusted with the situation. We request immediate action from the appropriate housing management and our elected councillor representatives, to bring our homes up to a better insulation level, as some private homes, have already done for themselves. Signed: Residents of Axdane, Orchard Park Estate, Hull” 2.4 The petition has been signed by fifty-eight residents of Axdane (including 52 Council tenants). 2.5 A Council officer met with the two petition organisers and took further details of the background to the petition on 11 th July 2018. During this meeting the petition organisers provided information about contact that they have received from the Council on the external improvement programme. The letters sent to residents of Axdane are included at Appendix A. The petition organisers made the following suggestions as to how the Council could help resolve the issues highlighted in the petition: better communication; offer thermal cladding to Axdane or suitable alternative; and tidy up the external appearance of properties i.e. canopies above doors, tiles/boards at side of houses. 3. Issues for Consideration
Regeneration of Orchard Park 3.1 Orchard Park has been and continues to be a key focus area for regeneration activity and is identified in the Local Plan as a priority area. A masterplan for the estate was developed and to date, seven blocks of high-rise flats have been demolished; 138 new homes have been built at Homethorpe and Milldane with a further 91 under construction at phase 2 of Milldane; and the programme of external solid wall insulation to 2,000 homes is well underway. 3.2 The external solid wall insulation programme on Orchard Park commenced in June 2017 in the Thorpes area. A total of 930 homes have since received works, all of which have been Wimpey No Fines properties which are relatively straight forward to insulate. All 1,130 Wimpey No Fines will be completed by September 2018. The properties in Axdane were scheduled to receive external solid wall insulation during 2017/18 however the design phase for the properties identified a number of technical issues which make the installation of insulation more difficult than with other properties. The properties were therefore withdrawn from the 2017/18 programme to allow further investigations into design solutions. Axdane, 5Ms 3.3 The properties in Axdane are all non-traditional properties called ‘5Ms’. The properties are located off Danepark Road and there are one hundred properties in twenty-two blocks. Forty-seven are private properties having been purchased under the Right to Buy scheme and fifty-three are owned by Hull City Council. The petition relates to the Council owned properties.
Author: Liz Jamil Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 2 of 7 Page 24 of 128 3.4 The 5M construction was developed from the “CLASP” (Consortium of Local Authorities Special Programme) system of construction. The 5M system is a lightweight composite steel and timber framed system and although across the country there were variations of 5M properties, with bungalows, low-rise flats and three storey properties, those on Axdane are terraced, two storey properties, with flat roofs and with a distinctive, continuous, fascia at first floor level and at eaves level. The 5Ms on Axdane are the only 5Ms within the City of Hull. 3.5 5M properties, along with all other properties in the city, are being maintained to the Decent Homes Standard (DHS). The DHS work is assessed elementally based primarily on the age and condition of property components, such as kitchens, entrance doors, windows, heating etc. On this basis the level of work varies between properties depending on when items were replaced on other work programmes. Some tenants may have refused works. 3.6 From the start of the DHS programme in 2007 to date, over £500k (or an average of £10,200) has been spent on DHS works in the 5M properties. In summary most of the properties have received the following work under the DHS: • Double glazing • New kitchens • New heating systems • A full rewire • Front and back doors 3.7 In addition to the Decent Homes works, as stated above there is a plan to address thermal inefficiency of the non-traditional stock and a programme was approved by Cabinet in November 2015 (minute 55(a)) including the 5Ms. 5Ms design solution 3.8 The Council has a long term partner, Fortem Energy Services, to deliver energy efficiency schemes across the city. Under this partnership, Hull City Council requested that Fortem progressed designs for external solid wall insulation for the 5M properties on Axdane. Fortem requested that a pair of neighbouring void properties were made available in order to conduct detailed structural surveys to better understand the specific composition of the Axdane 5Ms. It is widely understood that though 5Ms were built in a number of different areas of the country they were not all constructed in the same way. 3.9 Due to the popularity of the homes on Axdane, properties do not become vacant very often. There was therefore a delay to progressing designs until a property became empty. After a number of months a property, 41 Axdane, did become empty and Fortem conducted intrusive surveys on the single property. Fortem concluded from the surveys and the design process that in order to complete the external solid wall insulation, all properties would need to be empty. This would have meant all residents being rehoused temporarily during the works which would cause significant disruption to residents and would incur significant additional cost. The additional cost may have made the scheme financially unviable. The Council therefore sought a second opinion from NPS Humber.
Author: Liz Jamil Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 3 of 7 Page 25 of 128 3.9 NPS Humber were appointed in March 2018 to review the information presented by Fortem and to conduct a feasibility study into design options for external solid wall insulation for all Council homes on Axdane. NPS completed an initial review and visited Sheffield to look at the scheme Sheffield City Council have done on 5Ms. From the review and the visit NPS concluded that it may be technically feasible to complete the insulation works without the need for residents to move out although each property would have to be assessed individually prior to any works starting. NPS has now been commissioned to complete a full options review and to provide high level cost estimates. This information along with costings of the detailed design from Fortem Energy Services will serve to inform the best solution for the properties on Axdane. 3.10 Unfortunately to date no two neighbouring properties have become empty simultaneously which has made developing a solution much more challenging due to not being able to fully assess the party walls. NPS are however still moving forward with high level designs and costings. 4. Conclusions and Next steps 4.1 There have been a number of issues which have delayed the design process for external solid wall insulation to the 5Ms on Axdane as set out above. NPS Humber is now working up design solutions which will be completed within the next few weeks. 4.2 The next steps are: NPS Humber produces final report on design and estimated costs – July 2018 Hull City Council reviews the information and completes a full cost benefit analysis of the options – August/September 2018

Dear resident
Re: Planned External Improvement Works to Your Home Working in partnership with Fortem the Council will be delivering a programme of planned external works to your home that involves the installation of external solid wall insulation. I am pleased to confirm that works are due to start in your area during June 2017 and we aim to give you a minimum of 21 days’ notice before works start on your home. A Customer and Community Officer from Fortem will contact you to make an appointment to come and visit you to go through things in more detail. In the meantime please find enclosed a Frequently Asked Questions fact sheet which explains what the work will involve and what you need to do before it starts. I would like also to invite you to an information event to find out more about the works and plans for the wider area. The details of the event are as follows:
Dates: Thursday 4 May 2017 Saturday 13 May 2017 Times: 10am – 7pm 10am – 2pm Venue: Orchard Centre Centre, Orchard Park Road, HU6 9BX
Please pop in to see us to find out more and view designs for the works. If you are unable to attend don’t worry – a Customer and Community officer will arrange to visit you before the works start. Due to the nature of the works detailed external surveys are required as well as internal Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) surveys so that ‘ECO’ funding can be claimed by the Council. Our surveyors will be out and about during the next few weeks carrying out these surveys. You do not need to be at home for the external survey; however we will need access to the front and rear of your property. If we miss you a card will be left for you to contact us to organise a mutually convenient appointment. For the EPC we need to make an appointment in advance to visit your home for approximately one hour to complete the survey. Please either complete the attached form and return in the pre-paid envelope or call Hull Warmzone on 01482 612908 to make an appointment.

Dear resident
Re: Planned External Improvement Works to Your Home
As you are aware the council is working in partnership with Fortem Energy Service Ltd to deliver a programme of planned external works in the Orchard Park area which includes the installation of external solid wall insulation. You were invited to the information events held during May at the Orchard Centre which outlined an indicative programme and time table for the works in your area. I hope you were able to attend at that time to find out more. As an update, I would confirm that Fortem started works in Danepark Road over the summer, however, the original timetable for the remainder of the area, including your home, has since been amended. There are a number of reasons for the changes in timetable for your home, the main one being that the properties on Axdane are of a completely different construction type to those in the wider Orchard Park area. The properties on Axdane are classed as ‘5Ms’ and the properties in the wider area are ‘Wimpey No-fines’. As a result of an extensive structural survey of a ‘5M’ empty property the council will be considering whether external wall insulation is now an appropriate design solution for these property types i.e. whether any work is indeed needed and, if so, whether the original proposed works are the most suitable for this property type. Further investigations are being undertaken and the council will be in contact with you again once there is further information. Yours sincerely

Dear resident
Re: Planned External Improvement Works to Your Home
As you are aware the council is working in partnership with Fortem Energy Service Ltd to deliver a programme of planned external works in the Orchard Park area which includes the installation of external solid wall insulation. Following my letter to you in September 2017 I would like to emphasise that whilst our structural investigations are ongoing it is important that you continue to report any repairs to the council that are required to your home on 01482 300300 or on-line at http://www.hull.gov.uk/resident/council-housing/council-housing-repairs
If the investigations show that external wall insulation is not the most appropriate design solution for Axdane due to its property construction type (‘5M’), the council will continue to explore any other feasible options to improve the thermal efficiency of the ‘5Ms’. It is important in the meantime that your home is maintained in good repair.
Should you require any advice with regards to energy efficiency you can also contact Hull Warm Zone on 300 300 or 612908 or email [email protected] . Hull Warm Zone is a not for profit partnership with Hull City Council, National Energy Action and nPower and can provide advice and support.

Briefing Note to North Area Committee Wards : Orchard Park, Beverley & 18 July 2018 Newland and University
Housing Growth Plan – Small Sites
Report of the City Neighbourhoods and Housing Manager
1. Purpose of the Report and Summary
1.1 This briefing has been prepared to provide a progress update on the Housing Growth Plan, specifically small sites.
1.2 As part of the Housing Growth Plan, a number of Housing Revenue Account (HRA) sites were put forward for development as part of meeting the Council’s new build housing targets. The Housing Growth Plan sets out how the Council will achieve the targets by bringing forward a combination of small and large sites for development across the city. The Housing Growth Plan demonstrates the Council’s commitment towards a continued programme of building new and modern homes.
1.3 The report seeks input from North Area Committee on potential sites for new build housing within the Area Committee area. A full list of the identified sites in North Area is included at Appendix A. North Area Committee is asked to identify any additional sites in Council ownership which are not included within the list.
2. Background
2.1 The Deputy Chief Executive submitted a report which sought Cabinet approval for the Housing Growth Plan 2017-20 on 22 nd January 2018. Cabinet adopted the plan (minute 98) which was a key action under the Housing Strategy adopted by Cabinet in March 2017 (Minute 118). 2.2 Cabinet gave authority to the City Neighbourhoods and Housing Manager to progress HRA sites for new build Council owned housing in consultation with the Portfolio holder for Housing, the Town Clerk and the relevant Area Committees. 2.3 Section 5 of the Local Plan sets out a need for 9,920 new homes between 2016 and 2032 which equates to 620 additional new homes per annum. The Housing Growth Plan sets out how Hull City Council will facilitate new housing delivery to ensure that these numbers are met.

2.4 The Housing Strategy 2017-20 includes the following actions under the ‘Build more quality homes’ priority: • Develop and publish Hull’s Housing Growth plan • Identify new sites for development and conduct proactive site investigatory work • Pursue external funding as opportunities become available to ensure that we can bring more sites forward for development • Explore innovative methods of construction to more efficiently deliver affordable, quality homes.
3. Issues for Consideration
3.1 Hull City Council intends to deliver Council housing on its own land through investing its own HRA capital funding subsidised through grant funding where this is available. The Council will develop a pipeline of around 120 properties (including empty properties) per year for 5 years and will seek to identify suitable sites as a priority.
3.2 Plots of land have been identified that can be brought forward for new housing development subject to planning permission. The identified plots (appendix A) formed the basis for the Housing Growth Plan approved by Cabinet on 22 nd January 2018.
3.3 The Housing Growth plan includes an ambitious programme with delivery commencing in 2018/19. A plot of land on Hebden Avenue (East area) has been set out as potentially the first site as it is the right size for the funding allocated in the HRA business plan for the delivery of around 25 homes.
3.4 A procurement strategy for the small sites is in development and will be presented to cabinet during 2018; this strategy will cover the plan for procurement for all the small sites within the Housing Growth Plan.
3.5 North Area Committee is asked to consider the list of sites in North Area at Appendix A and to confirm support for bringing those sites forward for new housing (this will be subject to the sites being financially and technically viable for new housing). Input is also requested on whether there are other sites which are in Hull City Council ownership not included on the list.
3.6 North Area Committee is requested to note that all identified sites will undergo financial viability assessments to take into account constraints for example flood risk/ground conditions, low property values/rents and anything specific to the area.
Author: Ben Goren Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 2 of 3 Page 32 of 128
3.7 Area Committee is also requested to note the work that is taking place to bring other strategic sites forward for housing development and in particular ongoing work to establish a viable development scheme for the Dane Park site for c.80 homes.
3.8 In addition to plans for future development, Area committee is asked to note housing schemes that were completed last year; 197 new Council homes were completed across the city.
4. Next Steps
4.1 The next steps for the project are to conduct site feasibility, procure a contractor, and undertake pre-planning consultation, planning application which will all culminate in start on site.
4.2 The next steps for the strategic projects in the North Area is to continue to work on the viability of the Dane Park site for c.80 new homes

Reallocation of HRA Discretionary Budgets following boundary changes
Report of the City Manager for Neighbourhoods and Housing
This item is not exempt Therefore exempt reasons are not applicable
This is a Non-Key Decision
1. Purpose of the Report and Summary
1.1. The purpose of the report is to set out the reallocation of budgeted discretionary spends, between the new areas (based on the new ward boundaries) for 2018/19 and onwards. This report also sets out what the funds can be spent on and when the funds need to be spent by.
2. Recommendations
2.1. That the Members note the allocations of the available budgets to the new area boundaries.
2.2. That Members note that all funds are revenue in nature and must be spent within the financial year. There is no option to carry forward any unspent funds at the end of the year.
3. Reasons for Recommendations
3.1. As the ward boundaries have changed, the numbers of eligible properties and property types has also changed and consequently the funding split also needs to be reviewed.
4. Impact on other Executive Committees (including Area Committees)
4.1. The impact of this report is on all the 7 Area Committees.
5. Background
Author: Ashley Gray Status: Final Report Date: 18/07/2018 Page 1 of 4 Page 37 of 128 5.1. Discretionary spends have historically been available to the Areas and have been split upon an eligible Housing Revenue Account property and property type basis.
5.2. There is three set criteria for what the discretionary spends can be used for as set out below:
(i) Area Based Spend (ABS) – This relates to monies available for schemes to enhance the area in any way that is seen fit. (ii) Estate Management Spend (EMS) – These are monies that are available for schemes to improve the appearance of the local area. (iii) Enhanced Environmental Spend (EES) – These are monies available for schemes that will enhance and improve the local environment within the area.
5.3. Within the Council approved Housing Revenue Account 2018/19 budget there are total available discretionary funds of £391,370 available to split between the areas. These funds are split between the above criteria as follows:
(i) Area Based Spend - £222,530 (ii) Estate Management Spend - £48,840 (iii) Enhanced Environmental Works - £120,000
5.4. Revised allocations for 2018/2019 would be:
Wyke Park West East Riverside Kings North Tot al
Carr
% 9.78% 15.11% 10.88% 19.07% 18.01% 11.82% 15.33% 100%
ABS £21,763 £33,625 £24,208 £42,427 £40,083 £26,300 £34,124 £222,530
EMS £4,776 £7,378 £5,313 £9,311 £8,801 £5,772 £7,489 £48,840
EES £11,736 £18,131 £13,054 £22,879 £21,615 £14,183 £18,402 £120 ,000
Total £38,275 £59 ,13 4 £4 2,575 £74 ,617 £70 ,499 £46, 25 5 £60 ,0 15 £391,370
5.5. Due to a change in ward and thus area boundaries, the numbers of eligible properties and property types have changed in each area. It is therefore appropriate to reallocate funds accordingly.
5.6. Members should be aware that these budgets are only available for the purposes set out above, are revenue in nature, cover HRA properties only and need to be spent in year.
6. Issues for consideration
6.1. This report sets out what the discretionary budgets are and details what the funds can be spent on, it also sets out how the funds are split between the seven areas.
7. Options and Risk Assessment
7.1. Option 1 – (Preferred option) – Apportion the available funds between the areas (based on the new ward boundaries), based upon the number of eligible
Author: Ashley Gray Status: Final Report Date: 18/07/2018 Page 2 of 4 Page 38 of 128 Housing Revenue Account properties in each area, but taking into account the type of property in each area. This approach is consistent with the previous allocation method which was on a property and property type basis.
7.2. Option 2 – Apportion the available funds between the areas (based upon the new ward boundaries), based upon the number of eligible Housing Revenue Account properties in each area alone. To note if this option was chosen it would not materially adjust the reallocation of funds between the new areas as detailed in option 1. This proposal is not consistent with the previous basis used, and doesn’t take into account the effect that property types have on an area.
7.3. Do nothing. This would leave funding allocated on the historic property numbers prior to the ward boundary changes.
8. Consultation
8.1. None
9. Comments of the Town Clerk (Monitoring Officer)
9.1. The Monitoring Officer notes the report which raises no specific legal issues. [SL]
10. Comments of the Section 151 Officer
10.1. This report sets out a reasonable approach to revising the split of the available funding based on the new area boundaries. Schemes supported under this proposal must be HRA schemes and must be revenue in nature.
11. Comments of The City Human Resources Manager and compliance with the Equality Duty
11.1. There are no HR or equality duty implications arising from this report.
12. Comments of Overview and Scrutiny
12.1. This report has not been subject to pre decision scrutiny. (Ref. Sc5040)
13. Conclusions
13.1. Changes to the area boundaries in May 2018 mean that the allocations of available funds need to change accordingly. Ongoing allocation of funds remains within ward Members discretion.

Report to the North Area Committee 26 July 2018 Wards: Orchard Park & University
Reallocation of North Hull Housing Action Trust (HAT) Capital Receipts following boundary changes
Report of the City Manager for Neighbourhoods and Housing
This item is not exempt Therefore exempt reasons are not applicable
This is a Non-Key Decision
1. Purpose of the Report and Summary
1.1. At the Northern Area Committee meeting of 24th September 2015 the Committee agreed to apportion the residual HAT funds between the wards of Orchard Park & Greenwood and University based on a split of eligible properties. Following the changes to ward boundaries, this report sets out the re-allocation of the budget to the new wards. This report also sets out the balance of funds available to Members in each ward at 31st March 2018.
2. Recommendations
2.1. That the Committee agree to reallocate the budgets based on the split of properties in the new wards.
3. Reasons for Recommendations
3.1. As the ward boundaries have changed, the number of eligible properties has also changed and consequently the funding split also needs to be reviewed.
4. Impact on other Executive Committees (including Area Committees)
4.1. None. The only impact of the report is on the Northern Area Committee.
5. Background
5.1. On 24 September 2015 the Northern Area Committee agreed to apportion funds between the two old wards on an eligible property basis. Based on the funding levels of £184,193 at this date, the amount allocated to each ward was: • Orchard Park and Greenwood ward - £75,085 • University Ward - £109,108 Author: Ashley Gray Status: Final report Date: 18/07/2018 Page 1 of 4 Page 43 of 128
https://cmis.hullcc.gov.uk/cmis/Calendar/tabid/70/ctl/ViewMeetingPublic/mid/397/Meeting/6608 /Committee/27/Default.aspx
5.2. Appendix 1 shows a detailed map confirming the areas of potential spend. This map was produced for the 24 September 2015 Area Committee meeting, and shows the old ward boundaries post 2001 and pre May 2018. However to note that from May 2018 the areas marked U1 and OPG1 are now both in the University Ward, and the areas marked U2 and OPG2 are now in the Orchard Park ward post the May 2018 boundary changes. There has thus been a significant shift of properties from University to Orchard Park under the new boundaries. Appendix 2 shows a detailed map of the new ward boundaries for Kingston upon Hull from April 2018. The new ward boundaries contain 842 eligible properties in the Orchard Park ward and 464 in the University ward.
5.3. Since the original allocation, spend of £9,813 has taken place • £9,450 was spent in U1 (old and new University ward) • £363 was spent in OPG2 (old and new Orchard Park ward)
5.4. Revised allocations would thus be: Orchard Park University Total Eligible properties 842 464 1,306
Allocation of funding based on new boundaries £118,752 £65,441 £184,193 less spend £363 £9,450 £9,813 balance available £118,389 £55,991 £174,380
5.5. These are discretionary funds to be allocated for each ward at ward members meetings but as they were generated from capital receipts they can only be spent on capital schemes. Practice has been that the monies from HAT capital receipts should be spent on environmental-related work to pre-war property areas that have not already benefitted from the HAT programme.
6. Options and Risk Assessment
6.1. Option 1 (Preferred option) – Apportion funding between the wards (based on the new ward boundaries) on an eligible property basis. This approach is consistent with the previous allocation which was on a per property basis.
6.2. Option 2 - Do nothing. This option would leave the funds based on the old ward boundaries.
7. Consultation
7.1. None
8. Comments of the Town Clerk (Monitoring Officer)
Author: Ashley Gray Status: Final report Date: 18/07/2018 Page 2 of 4 Page 44 of 128 8.1. The Monitoring notes the proposals which raise no specific legal issues. [SL]
9. Comments of the Section 151 Officer
9.1. This report sets out a reasonable approach to revising the split of the available funding based on the new ward boundaries. Schemes supported under this proposal must be HRA schemes and must be capital in nature.
10. Comments of The City Human Resources Manager and compliance with the Equality Duty
10.1. There are no HR or equality duty implications arising from this report.
11. Comments of Overview and Scrutiny
11.1. This report has not been subject to pre-decision scrutiny. (Sc5038)
12. Conclusions
12.1. Changes to the ward boundaries in May 2018 mean that the balance of available funds needs to change accordingly. Ongoing allocation of funds remains within ward Members discretion.

Briefing to the Northern Area Committee Wards – Beverley and 26th July 18 Newland, Orchard Park, University
Waste and Open Spaces Quarterly Performance Update
Briefing of the City Streetscene Manager
1. Purpose of the Briefing Paper and Summary
1.1 To provide a quarterly performance report relating to waste collection, recycling performance, street cleansing and grounds maintenance in the Northern area.
2. Introduction
2.1 This briefing is part of the ongoing performance reporting framework, providing quarterly performance information for Waste and Open Spaces.
3. Measures of Performance
3.1 . The city wide number of missed collections for June 18 was 1306 out of 661,497 scheduled collections which equates to a 99.8% collection rate.
3.2 The following graph shows the number of reported missed collections since May 2017 across Northern area broken down by Ward.
1 Page 51 of 128
3.3 The number of missed collections in Northern Area reported in June 18 was 249. This figure equates to 0.27% of scheduled collections missed.
3.4 The average number of daily reported missed collections by Ward in June 18 was as follows:
Beverley and Newland – 4 bin reported missed out of 1,281 collections per day. This equates to 0.15% missed collections in this ward. Orchard Park – 5 bins reported missed out of 1974 collections per day. This equates to 0.28% missed collections in this ward. University – 5 bins reported missed out of 1,343 collections per day. This equates to 0.37% missed collections in this ward. The city wide ward average is 5 bins reported missed per day
3.5 Cleansing Performance Update – Levels of litter and graffiti are now monitored city-wide on a quarterly basis. This is in line with corporate performance indicators. The trend in relation to levels of litter and graffiti across the city is shown below.
2 Page 52 of 128
3.6 Current levels of litter citywide are below the target of 6%. Keep Britain Tidy’s latest annual national local environmental quality survey results; show the national unacceptable levels of litter at 10%. The above graph is showing the standards for litter on hard surfaces.
3.7 The level of graffiti continues to be well below the target figure of 4%.
3.8 Action was taken by Streetscene Operational Teams to address any failures that were found during the surveys.
3.9 A zonal approach to cleansing has been in place for 27 months which is aimed at ensuring standards are maintained at their current level, or to improve them. This zonal approach started April 4th 2016. Graffiti remains well below target. Grounds Maintenance standards continue to be monitored closely so that improvements can be made.
3.10 The number of reported fly-tipping incidents in the Northern Area averaged approximately 59 per month between May 17 and June 18. A comparison with city-wide reports is outlined below.
3 Page 53 of 128
3.11 The general trend since June has been a gradual reduction in the number of reported fly tips. Additional resources have been put in place over the last few months which has meant any reported fly tips on council owned land are cleared within two working days.
3.12 To illustrate the level of contact from residents with regard to street cleanliness, the number of service requests through the call centre is shown on the graph below.
4 Page 54 of 128
3.13 The average number of requests from residents in the Northern Area is 18 per month. The graph below shows the breakdown of service request types for the Northern Area. Figures are consistently in line with or lower than citywide averages.
3.14 To illustrate the level of contact from residents with regard to grounds maintenance and parks, the number of service requests through the call centre is shown on the graph below.
5 Page 55 of 128
3.15 The average number of requests from residents in the Northern Area is 41 per month and reflects the seasonal trend.
3.16 The graph below shows the breakdown of service request types for the Northern Area
4 Summary and Next Steps
4.1 Key operational issues will be summarised in future reports.
4.2 The waste collection service continue to monitor trends in reported missed collections, with the emphasis on reducing the number of repeat and missed assisted collections to improve performance. Improving the quality of materials collected in the blue bin recycling scheme is also a key priority.
4.3 Additional resources have been allocated to dealing with flytipping which has cleared all outstanding actions. This has also lead to a quicker response time and general reduction in the number of reported fly tips.

Briefing Paper to the North Area Committee Wards :

Pupil Premium Plus for Looked After Children: North Area Committee Financial Year 2017-18
1. Purpose of the paper and summary:
1.1 To provide the North Area Committee with information on school expenditure of Pupil Premium Plus for Looked After Children , within the financial year 2017- 18.
2. Background
2.1 The Pupil Premium Plus for Looked After Children is held by the Virtual School Headteacher in each local authority, and is available for schools to claim in order to support the academic progress of looked after children on their roll.
• In Hull, the 2017-18 amount available for schools to directly claim was £1500 per child, per academic year. • Allocation Guidance is distributed to all schools at the beginning of each financial year with advice on how best to claim funding. • Some surplus created within the budget, usually when a child leaves care, is utilised within the city to support Looked After Children through extra group work, events, tuition, staffing etc.
2.2 It is statutory for every school to have an allocated Designated Teacher for looked after children, whose responsibility is to oversee the educational welfare and progress of all LAC in their provision alongside the Virtual School and Social Care teams. In Hull, Designated Teachers are required to claim Pupil Premium Plus (PP+) funding via the Electronic Personal Education Plan (ePEP) system.
2.3 Costed SMART targets (Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time bound) are set based on each individual child’s academic performance.
It is recommended these targets are reviewed by the Designated Teacher on a termly basis, using best practise and advice from Ofsted and the Virtual School.
2.4 Once a funding request is submitted, it is reviewed by the Virtual School, who can accept, amend, or decline the funding request. When agreed, funding is distributed electronically each term.

3.1 North Area Committee: PP+ Analysis
• In the 2017-18 financial year, 52 looked after children were on roll at schools within the North Area Committee. A total of 134 successful claims were made at a total cost of £41,884.05 . • On average, each LAC within the North Area Committee received £805 in Pupil Premium Plus within the 2017-18 financial year. • Although total expenditure is recorded across the financial year, schools tend to submit claims during the academic year, creating some overlap with children looking like they have received more/less funding than the allocated £1500 which is a common occurrence. • Endsleigh and St Nicholas were schools within the North Area committee that did not submit any funding requests during the financial year because they did not have any LAC on roll. • Thorpepark Primary did have 2 pupils on roll during the 2017-18 financial year, but did not make any PP+ claims.

The Table represents the city-wide total number of PP+ claims and amount claimed for the financial year. This does not include additional financial support provided from by the Virtual School that doesn’t relate to a costed SMART target in ePEP.
The Table does not include Hull LAC placed in Other Local Authority provisions that are also eligible for Pupil Premium Plus funding, or surplus funding utilised by the Virtual School to directly support cohorts across a number of schools.
Author: Carole Moulton/James Keal Status: Date: 18/07/2018 Page 3 of 4 Page 59 of 128 3.4 A single child can have several claims depending on how many targets were set out for them by the Designated Teacher via the ePEP system. The value of each target also varies depending on type of claim.
The table shows Park area committee had more schools with LAC on roll and therefore made more claims in total. However, Riverside claimed the most money in total throughout the 2017-18 financial year, these are both the same trends as the 2016-17 financial year. As stated on page two, claims differ from school to school and provisions are encouraged freedom and flexibility with how they claim Pupil Premium Plus, especially since they work across academic years and not financial.

1: Introduction & Accountability
The purpose of the following report is to highlight the activity and responsibilities of the Virtual School Head Teacher, the Virtual School team and the educational outcomes of Hull children that were in care during the last academic year.
The intention is to reflect the work, progress and achievements of children in care, and also highlight areas for development to be addressed over the course of the next academic year and beyond.
The Children and Families Act (2014) amended section 22 of the Children Act 1989 and placed a statutory duty for all local authorities to appoint a Virtual School Head in order to promote and develop the educational needs of each looked after child in the area.
DfE statutory guidance ‘Promoting the Educational Achievement of Looked After Children’ and ‘Out of authority placement of Looked After Children’ clearly outline the role of the Virtual School head and summarised key priorities to be:
• close attainment and progress gaps • create a culture of high aspirations • ensure access to a range of high quality placement options with good and outstanding schools • ensure robust procedures are in place to monitor attendance and educational progress • maintain up to date roll and inform schools of children coming into care • ensure up to date, effective and high quality PEPs (Personal Education Plans) that focus on educational outcomes. • ensure provision is full time (and minimise gaps in schooling) • report regularly on the attainment of Looked After Children (LAC) • ensure training needs of all relevant professionals are met.
Although it is important to identify the gap in achievement between the Hull LAC cohort and their peers - so that the importance of making additional provision and support for these children is never neglected, it must also be recognised that sometimes these comparisons are not helpful due to the underlying complexity and turbulence in what are small numbers of vulnerable children and young people. As recognised by Ofsted, sometimes understanding the child’s individual journey is as important, if not more important, than comparative statistics. 2: The Role of the Virtual School Team
The Virtual School Team saw significant changes in March 2017, with the retirement of VSH Geoff Dobbs being replaced in the interim by Graham Talbot (Assistant City Manager for Education). During this period, Carole Moulton was appointed as deputy
3
Page 63 of 128
Virtual School Head to coincide with her current role as Educational Coordinator for LAC with SEND needs.
As of September 2017, Karen Keaney, former principal of Hull Trinity House Academy, has replaced Graham Talbot since his retirement and therefore will become the new Virtual School Head for Children in Care within our city.
The role of the team is increasingly one of monitoring, holding schools and settings to account for how they are allocating the pupil premium plus grant, how up to date and robust their PEPs are, and also holding regular monitoring visits to Designated Teachers for LAC. Training programmes and guidance are also frequently offered by the Virtual School for teachers, social workers, foster/residential carers and school governors such as attachment training and ePEP workshops. The Virtual School team also works directly with children that need educational support the most, as well as directing external companies, providers and educational psychologists on what could most benefit children’s educational needs.
The team has also been strengthened as of September 2017 by the appointment of Clare Adamson, Transition Worker for Post 16 looked after children, after it was highlighted that further support was needed within this area.
Training:
The Virtual School team provide termly training for Designated Teachers in schools which focuses on meeting the needs of children with emotional trauma and attachment difficulties, also including work alongside national trainers from PAC UK (post adoption) to further this programme.
Leigh O’Donnell, Education Coordinator for the team, is leading the attachment training on behalf of the team and as well as her daily duties of providing advice and support for children, teachers and other professionals at secondary school age, has also worked on another two projects throughout the 2016-17 academic year:
• The Virtual School Conference took place on March 10 th 2017 at the Village Hotel, Hull, with the centre focus being around teachers dealing with children that have behavioural and attachment issues. The conference contained a number of workshops and guest speakers. A full report on this conference can

Page 64 of 128
be found in the supporting documents folder within the VSH Drive, or via the Information Officer (James Keal) as well some brief info on section 15 of this document. • A pilot project for Attachment Aware schools to significantly improve the capacity of senior leaders in schools to understand and provide for children who have experienced significant loss and trauma. Following a successful pilot beginning January 2017, this will resume again in September 2017 for another cohort of teachers and/or senior leaders. Results/attendance from the 2016-17 pilot are still awaiting confirmation.
The team also run termly Designated Teacher Network Meetings, in order to share good practice, ideas and generally catch up with professionals around the city. Two take place each term, one in East Hull and the other in West. These network meetings will continue for the 2017-18 academic year, with much more of an emphasis being spent on including guest speakers, different workshops and expanding the meeting’s experience. 5 Network meetings took place in the 2016-17 academic year, attended by 79 Designated Teachers across the city.
Finally, the Team Coordinator, Adam Palmer, offers on-site training on the use of the electronic Personal Education Plan (ePEP) system. Over the course of the 2016-17 academic year Adam visited 25 schools in the local area on completing PEPs, target setting and the appropriate use of the Pupil Premium for LAC. Beginning September 2017, the Team Coordinator and Information Officer will also be hosting termly drop in workshops for professionals to gain an understanding of the ePEP system and how it works for looked after children, professionals and their families. Workshops ran in 2015 and 2016 saw over 100 attendees from schools, early years settings, foster carers, social workers and a range of other professionals attending.

3: Background Data (including SEN).
The following tables represent the 564 children in school years Year R-11 , who were in care for part or all of the 2016-17 academic year. 405 of these pupils were educated in 82 Hull schools, 94 in 37 East Riding schools, and the remaining 65 in 55 schools in other local authorities.
The total figure for children in care for all or some of September 2016-July 2017 for Hull, aged 0-18, is 934 .

The above rates show that Hull has almost double the amount of children placed in care in comparison to national averages per 10,000. A less stark comparison is seen when considering the average rate across the city’s statistical neighbour local authorities- in other words comparing the picture in the city against the average across local authorities in similar circumstances.

The 2016-17 academic year saw a significant increase of children coming into care, which has had a significant impact on all data outcomes including attendance, exclusions and end of Key Stage Attainment.
161 school aged children entered the care system for the first time within the academic year , and of these 36 of them left care before 31/07/2017. However, this does leave another 125 still in care by the end of the academic year.
6 UASC (Unaccompanied Asylum Seeker Children) at school age were placed into care during the academic year. These children have arrived in the area due to overseas conflict and more are expected to arrive in the future. These children are being assisted via learning packages provided by St Mary’s College and Hull College in the hope that they can be assisted into full time education. Another 5 UASC children also came into care during the 2016-17 academic year but were too old to be of compulsory school age.

An increase in the number of looked after children within the city would generally mean a corresponding increase in the number of children with some level of SEN support. The table below demonstrates the relationship between LAC and SEN.

Percentage of School Aged LAC placed in Good/Outstanding Secondary School Provisions for Academic Year 2016-17:
100% 90% 80% 70% 60% Hull Secondary 50% Other LA Secondary 40% 30%
In the last academic year a mainstream secondary school was placed into special measures, this coupled with five other local mainstream secondary schools in Hull rated as Requires Improvement brought the overall % of secondary school age LAC in Good/Outstanding provisions down to around 60%. On a city wide scale it has provided difficult to ensure looked after children are only placed in Good/Outstanding provisions given the local picture.
Hull LAC placed in other local authority schools above show a consistently low figure in Good/Outstanding provisions. This can be justified by the significant amount of provisions that have yet to be inspected by OFSTED, or those that have recently converted to academies. Without the provisions yet to be inspected, OLA secondary provisions marked as Good/Outstanding would be 66%.

Page 70 of 128
LAC in Hull Primary schools are consistently, across the academic year, in provisions deemed Good/Outstanding by OFSTED, with an overall percentage of 83% at the end of the academic year.
Hull LAC placed in other local authority Primary provisions were different to the Secondary figures, as a lot less Primary schools were awaiting inspection by OFSTED. Instead, a respectable 78% of Hull LAC were placed in Good/Outstanding other local authority provisions at the end of the academic year, partially due to the scrutiny and involvement the Virtual School have in placing a child out of the area.
5: Early Years
As each term progresses, LAC numbers change within each early years cohort. The local authority collects outcomes from all Private, Voluntary and Independent nursery settings and childminders within the area, as well as all Hull school nurseries. Over 150 settings return data to the local authority on a termly basis.
Early Years Outcomes: Percentage of Looked After Children at ARE (Aged Related Expectation) or above by termly comparison
Autumn 2016 Spring 2017 Summer 2017
Hull LAC- 2 Yr Olds at ARE or Above 62.8% 73.8% 74.1% (n. 22) (n. 24) (n. 20)
LA Average- 2 Yr Olds at ARE or Above 75.3% 74.8% 76.8%
Hull LAC- 3&4 Yr Olds (FS1) at ARE or 65.6% 53.1% 69.3% Above (n. 17) (n. 17) (n. 25) LA Average- 3&4 Yr Olds (FS1) at ARE or Above 67.9% 78.3% 86.5%
The LAC cohort held within the return is always small, so termly comparisons aren’t particularly necessary, but figures above do show LAC at early years level (FS1 and below) by the Summer 2017 return were slightly behind city wide figures for 2 Year olds and significantly behind for 3&4 Year Olds.

21 Year 1 looked after children were included in this year’s phonics screening test figure, seeing a slight rise on last year and a significant increase on 2014-15. Although still behind on their peers, a positive increase nonetheless.

28 Key Stage 1 LAC were in the 2017 cohort, 23 in Hull mainstream provisions and the remaining 5 in East Riding mainstream provisions. With national curriculum levels no longer in use and a new assessment system in place to gain an insight into each child’s progress, there is only one year of comparative data.
12
Page 72 of 128
As stated in Section 1 of this document, it is difficult to judge LAC attainment without seeing their individual journey beforehand, as on the surface this year’s LAC KS1 figures have declined in comparison to last year’s.
Viewing the last time NC levels were used ( 2014-15 VSH Report), KS1 figures are seen to fluctuate up and down each year depending on cohort and have been historically for the past 5 or more years.

45 KS2 looked after children were included in the above table for 2016-17, 32 in Hull, 10 in the East Riding and the remaining 3 in Out of County provisions. Similar to KS1 outcomes, KS2 are performing below city wide and national figures, with Reading and Maths taking a slight drop, but Writing and RWM Combined seeing an increase of 5%. GPS has remained the same.

KS2 LAC Males 26 50 62 58 46
KS2 LAC Females 19 53 68 58 47
Comparisons between males and females nationally highlight a gap in the achievement of females in comparison to males (source: DfE LAIT). LAC females, despite the relatively small cohort size to compare, highlight this trend but only slightly, with achievement in Maths being the same between the two genders. Writing (TA) has the biggest gap between the two of 6 percentage points.

City (all pupils) 49.1% 29% 41.8 -0.07 55.0% 47.7 +0.03
It should be noted that due to changes in secondary school accountability measures it is difficult to make comparisons between 2015-16 and 2016-17 outcomes at KS4.
During the June 2017 examination period, 48 Year 11 Pupils were in care. Some children are discounted from the above table (All Settings figure), of these:
• 5 pupils were UASC (Unaccompanied Asylum Seekers) recently arrived in the country. These children were on various basic English courses and so were not entered for any exams. • 5 LAC on roll with Special Schools, many below the entry levels for the above performance tables and therefore not expected to be included in the analysis. The Virtual School does however record their achievements and progress via their PEPs and also the termly progress collection. • This leaves a cohort of 38 Year 11 looked after pupils placed in mainstream secondary schools, pupil referral units or independent/on site/other provisions that entered the child for qualifications. o Of the 38, 9 pupils were placed in Pupil Referral Units, 7 at Rise Academy and 2 at Aspire Academy. • Another row was created to represent the 26 pupils in mainstream secondary provisions, to highlight the difference when children within PRU’s and independent/other provisions are excluded from the data. • Average Attainment 8 Scores have lowered in line with that seen on a city wide level . This is due to new performance measures against English
14
Page 74 of 128
and Maths, as well as the slightly lowered point scored at GCSE level. Given this information, it is difficult to draw comparisons between the two. • To the right of the table, 2015-16 data is above to highlight a comparison despite the performance measures changing.
Stability at Year 11:
Year 11 2017 Cohort: Historical School Moves Year 11 LAC 38 Primary Moves 68 Secondary Moves 41 Total 109
Foster placement moves for Year 11 LAC Cohort since initially coming into care: 116
The 38 Year 11 LAC included in the KS4 data had experienced a total of 109 in year school moves between them. This does not include normal transition points, for example Primary to Secondary (Year 6 to Year 7).
Within the cohort, 11 pupils were recorded to have had more than 1 secondary school move, all of whom received a negative progress 8 score and did not achieve their expected grades.
Of the 10 pupils that had the highest number of foster placement moves, only 1 child achieved a pass (4+) in both English and Maths. The above evidence suggests a strong correlation between school and foster placement stability and the impact it has on educational attainment.
Year 11 LAC by SEN Level:
• Of the 38 LAC included in the Year 11 Data, 21 of these were recorded to have some level of SEN Support, that’s 55% of the full cohort. • 16 were highlighted to have some level of support, and 5 were recorded to currently have a EHCP. • None of the children with a EHCP achieved a 4+ in English and Maths, and of the children with SEN support, only one achieved a 4+ in English and Maths.

• In the 2016-17 academic year, a termly data collection was conducted by the Virtual School team’s Information Officer. Data was collected from all schools with Hull LAC on roll, including those in the East Riding and Out of County. • Two measures were collected for English and Maths for each child: o Progress Measures based on each child’s Age Related Expectations o Progress Measures from the child’s starting point in school, or in care, whichever was most recent, against the schools own personal expectations/targets.
Using the above data, the team could calculate, both on a city wide and individual child level, identify needs, cohorts and areas of learning to which we could assist the child’s progress across the year. Fortnightly team meetings take place, in which individual children and cohorts are brought to the table and discussed based on their progress data as well as attendance and exclusions.
The above graph relates to all school age looked after pupils in education each term, and is for Age Related Expectations only. The above shows a steady increase in pupils making total progress in English and Maths, but over 50% are still seen to be performing below ARE.

Page 76 of 128
LAC Progress by RAG Rating, Summer 2017:
Each individual pupil involved in the progress data collection is given a RAG rating; an average rating based on their schools expectations/progress brought against the five point scale in both subjects.
With these ratings, the team can then assess which children may need support the most, the Information Officer also provides further analysis on cohorts and year groups depending on which ones are rated lower.
LAC RAG Rating by Percentage: Summer 2017 No. of Rating LAC 2.3% 6.4% Well Below 1 28 13.4% Well Below 20.7% Below 2 91 Below At 3 251 At 57.2% Above Above 4 59 Well Above Well Above 5 10
In the Summer 2017 return, 28 children were given a RAG rating of ‘Well Below’, calculated by averaging scales provided by schools. This is an example of VS staff being alerted to children who are dipping in education and may need additional support and expertise.
These children will be addressed at the beginning of the 2017-18 academic year in upcoming team meetings, and prioritised by the team before they move on to addressing the 91 children rated as ‘Below’, in the hope that they can meet their expectations in the near future- new protocols will be drawn up in 2017-18 in order to develop progress tracking.

In 2016-17, the Virtual School team included a transition worker, Sonya Wilkinson, whose remit is to support Year 11 children leaving school and moving on to higher education. Sonya also monitors those children in Year 12 as to what education they are attending and what courses they are completing since leaving school.
It is paramount to ensure these children are given the best education possible to ensure their futures, and so Sonya works had to ensure that high risk pupils who may become NEET (not in education, employment or training) are well supported.

Sonya also works alongside other agencies, such as Connexions, to ensure the young people are engaged.
As of September 2017, Sonya will be working alongside another Transition Worker within the Virtual School; Clare Adamson, who will also be supporting Year 11 pupils moving on from school and also those that are now in higher education. Clare’s appointment came after it was highlighted that Year 13 cohorts needed to be supported further alongside the Leaving Care team, and the data provided for Post 16 pupils needed to be much more robust.

There is a future commitment to build trend data throughout this section of the report. 11: Attendance & Exclusions
The attendance and exclusions of all Hull looked after children is tracked and monitored on a continuous basis. Hull children have their attendance/exclusions data uploaded through their respective schools SIMS system direct on a report to the Virtual School, and other local authority data is commissioned by an external company whose expertise is to collect data on looked after children on our behalf: Welfare Call.
At the fortnightly team meeting, Attendance and Exclusion data is reviewed for each individual LAC. Those that are seen to have low attendance, or high exclusions,
19
Page 79 of 128
have their Designated Teachers contacted directly by the Team Coordinator in order to gain an insight as to what could be put in place to rectify this.
2016-17 LAC Attendance by Month:
2016-17 LAC Percentage 2016-17 LAC Percentage September 95.81% March 94.89% October 95.31% April 95.61% November 95.28% May 95.68% December 93.79% June 93.35% January 94.44% July 94.58% February 94.57% Yearly LAC Average 94.85% City Wide Average 95.10%
Overall, attendance is good as a consequence of rigorous monitoring and support. When analysed month by month, attendance remained fairly consistent over the year. The yearly LAC attendance average this year is 94.85%, a slight decrease on last year’s figure of 95.53%. This drop can be justified by both the increase in school age LAC and increased exclusions.
2016-17 LAC Attendance by School Year:
2016-17 LAC Percentage 2016-17 LAC Percentage Year 11 83.58% Year 5 96.88% Year 10 89.69% Year 4 96.53% Year 9 94.93% Year 3 96.21% Year 8 96.92% Year 2 94.76% Year 7 93.04% Year 1 93.80% Year 6 96.59% Year 0 (FS2) 94.63%
In 2016-17, 76 looked after children were recorded to have had attendance below 90% across the entire academic year. The KS4 cohort was the most problematic: children entering care at this age present a range of challenges to engage in education that is increasingly academic.

Exclusions data is tracked and monitored in the same way as attendance data; via the SIMS/ONE Systems and Welfare Call tracking.
Fixed term exclusions have seen a concerning climb this academic year, one fixed term exclusion is registered as 0.5 of a full school day, meaning 2016-17 Hull looked after children missed 347 days of education due to fixed term exclusions . Given the significant increase of school age LAC this academic year, an increase in exclusions was predicted.
348 of the fixed term exclusions in 2016-17 were given by mainstream primary and secondary schools in Hull, an issue that needs addressing as an authority.

12: Personal Education Plans
It is a statutory requirement for each looked after child to have a Personal Education Plan (PEP), which is reviewed six monthly, to ensure that every effort is being made to track and monitor each individual’s educational progress.
Hull implemented an ePEP (electronic PEP) system in 2012, an internet based online database which enables all registered users to read and input to their child’s PEP, wherever they are based. This also enables more professionals, families and the individual child to have much more of an input on their education.
2015 saw the launch of the Early Years PEP and 2016 began rolling out Post 16 PEPs.
A PEP Process Flowchart can be found within the supporting documents folder of the VSH drive and via the Information Officer.

A second PEP Audit will be completed in January 2018 following an appropriate time to meet

Page 82 of 128
targets and actions highlighted for the Virtual School team in 2017-18 academic year.
The Virtual School team plays a large part in the responsibility to ensure PEP’s are up to date and robust, however statutory guidance highlights this responsibility falls to the child’s Social Worker. Quality assurance for PEPs via the Virtual School team includes:
• Education Coordinators attending PEP meetings in order to provide advice to professionals on the child’s needs, their targets, progress, and the use of the Pupil Premium funding. • PEP Advisory Teachers arrange and attend PEP meetings, assist with processes, target setting, and are generally responsible for ensuring all PEPs are up to date. • The Team Coordinator offers school visits to Designated Teachers/Support Staff on target setting and how to make the most out of using the system. • The Team Coordinator and Information Officer offer workshops and training programmes for all professionals and foster carers on using the ePEP system appropriately. • Support always offered via telephone and email, from all of the team, in order to support professionals on inputting into the system, providing advice on target setting and also setting up dates for upcoming PEP meetings. • Regular audits and reports are inputted to check the quality and quantity of PEP meetings.

The ePEP system is subject to regular review and a number of improvements are made in dialogue with the developers, eCare Solutions, the system is customised to benefit each individual authority and how they carry out PEP meetings.
The ePEP system is also the primary source for Designated Teachers to request Pupil Premium funding for LAC. In order to do this, the child must have an active PEP on the system, and SMART targets must be entered and agreed on a termly basis which includes the school’s planned use of the funding. The system allows close scrutiny of all PEPs to ensure that high aspirations are evident for all children and that underachievement is being appropriately addressed.
A letter sent in March 2017 to all Designated Teachers and school heads, by the previous VSH, Geoff Dobbs, explaining the upcoming plans for Pupil Premium use via PEPs can be found here.
13: Pupil Premium Plus for Looked After Children
The Pupil Premium Plus grant is managed primarily by both the Head and Deputy Head for the Virtual School, whose role is to use the funding to best support the interests of children in care, and ensure the money is spent appropriately.
The funding available for each child from first day of care in Hull for the 2017-18 financial year is £1500 and is distributed termly via reviewing targets and funding requests through ePEP.
• Schools are required to request funding when needed via targets in the ePEP system, containing accurate costings and interventions. The Team Coordinator then audits these requests and if appropriate, reimburses the schools on a termly basis for the interventions/support put in place. • This ensures closer scrutiny and analysis on what the money is being spent on.
In the last financial year, £1900 was available to be claimed across the year for each individual looked after child. Towards March 2017 it was highlighted that some schools didn’t claim some of the money, simply because they felt certain children didn’t need it, or a child left care before it could be claimed, which then created a slight surplus in the grant.
In order to address this surplus and avoid underspend, it was agreed within the team, via a letter sent by Geoff Dobbs, that the maximum amount available to be requested by schools would now be £1500 per academic year which would then create a surplus to further support disadvantaged pupils that may need further
24

funding available to them. Further activities and services could also be provided to assist children in care in the long run such as:
• two PEP Advisory Teachers • a new Transition Worker • a licence for ePEP Manager • a licence for Welfare Call • the Annual Celebration Event for Children in Care • Hull Children’s University and the Letterbox Club Support • Educational Psychologist Support • 1:1 Tuition for children hard to place in education • further funding for those who need over and above the available amount of PP.
Children adopted from care or those who leave care under SGO/Residence Order are also eligible for £1900 Pupil Premium Plus. However, this is claimed directly by schools via the census return and is not managed by the Virtual School.

14: Children in Care Celebration Event 2016
The third annual celebration event took place on Thursday 24 th November 2016 at The Guildhall, Hull. The event was designed to acknowledge and celebrate the progress, achievement and efforts made by all Hull looked after children over the past academic year. Two events took place, one for primary children and the other for secondary.
The event is primarily organised by colleagues at Hull Children’s University, who work alongside the Virtual School to offer learning programmes, events and trips for Hull children in care. Hull Children’s University also manage the Letterbox Clubs (see section 16) for cohorts who may need assistance with improving their reading skills.
The event was met by positive feedback from professionals, carers and children alike, and the decision was made to make this event annual for the foreseeable future. The next celebration event will take place on Wednesday 11 th October 2017 , at the Guildhall again.
November 2016 Primary School Event Figures: 173 Guests (Including 74 looked after children)

15: Virtual School Conference 2017
The Virtual School highlighted an increasing amount of requests from schools for help and advice in developing strategies to manage behaviour within mainstream settings. The number of fixed term exclusions were increasing for vulnerable children, including looked after children, putting more children at risk of permanent exclusions.
The fair access panel within our local authority saw an increase in referrals for in- year school transfers throughout 2016, and the strain on providing adequate support for disadvantaged children has risen steadily in recent times.
With the above information in mind, a conference was designed in order to bring Designated Teachers, senior leaders and other professionals from Hull schools together in order to offer various workshops, guest speakers and stands revolving around developing and sharing good practise.
A full report on the conference, including feedback from professionals that attended, is available within the supporting documents folder in the VSH drive or via the Information Officer.
16: Hull Children’s University & Letterbox Club
Hull Children’s University is a charity that works to support some of the most disadvantaged young people in the local area, offering programmes, trips and bespoke learning experiences for children outside of school hours. The university launched a Children in Care programme to coincide with its work parallel to that of the Virtual School, in which both teams work closely to support each other.
The Letterbox Club programme is currently being delivered by the Hull Children’s University and will be entering its third year. The club offers looked after children free books, stationary and other reading materials once every month for six months, and the reading mentor at Hull Children’s University both distributes the packs and also supports the children with one to one learning sessions.
So far, a total of 19 local schools have been involved in the programme and the feedback has overall been very positive, with expansion of the programme expected over the course of the next academic year.
27
Page 87 of 128
The purpose of the Letterbox Club is to improve children’s confidence in reading and also their reading comprehension age. The impact of support is measure by completing a reading assessment (Neale Analysis of Reading Ability) at the beginning and end of the intervention. Children are nominated by the Virtual School, teachers and other professionals into the programme.
Hull Children’s University Children in Care Programme Annual Report as well as the Letterbox Club annual report can be found within the supporting documents folder of the VSH drive or via the Information Officer.
17: Actions Identified for 2017-18
To be refined/updated by CM/KK October 2017:
• To establish robust protocols across the service area to regularly maintain and monitor the attendance, exclusions and progress of all looked after children. This will be reviewed at the fortnightly team meetings. • To ensure frequent monitoring of all Post 16 LAC, their educational placements and the courses they are completing, as well as closely monitoring individual pupils recorded as NEET, and re-engaging them in education. • Regular audits will take place within the ePEP system to ensure all looked after children have a robust and up to date Personal Education Plan. • To continue to closely monitor the annual Pupil Premium Plus budget for looked after children, and to establish a graduated response process for Designated Teachers when requesting additional funding.

Virtual School Head’s Report - Academic Year 2016-17 Executive Summary
Background Data
There were 564 looked after children (LAC) in school years Reception through to Year 11 who were in care for part or all of the 2016-17 academic year. 405 of these pupils were educated in 82 Hull schools, 94 in 37 East Riding schools, and the remaining 65 in 55 schools in other local authorities.
The total figure for children in care for all or some of September 2016 to July 2017 for Hull, aged 0-18, is 934.
The following tables provide further detail to the school age LAC population.

Key Stage 4 Outcomes
38 Year 11 looked after pupils placed in mainstream secondary schools, pupil referral units or independent/on site/other provisions that entered the child for qualifications were included in the above data. (5 UASC (Unaccompanied Asylum Seekers) and 5 LAC placed in special schools were not included as they did not partake in any KS4 curriculum).

City 49.1 29 41.8 -0.07
Region 61.1 40 45.1 0.02
England 58.5 39.1 44.2 TBC
The 2016-17 Year 11 LAC cohort highlighted a low Attainment 8 score, which then also had an impact on Progress 8 averages. The Virtual School will be closely scrutinising individual pupil’s benchmarks, targets and predictions for the upcoming academic year with Year 11 pupils a primary focus.
• Of the 38 LAC included in the Year 11 Data, 21 pupils were recorded to have some level of SEN Support, that’s 55% of the full cohort. 5 of which had an EHCP. • 9 Pupils were placed in Pupil Referral Units, 7 at Rise Academy and 2 at Aspire Academy, none of which achieved a 4+ in both English and Maths. • The 38 Year 11 LAC had experienced a total of 109 in year school moves between them, 68 primary and 41 secondary. This does not include normal transition points, for example Primary to Secondary (Year 6 to Year 7). • Within the cohort, 11 pupils were recorded to have had more than 1 secondary school move , all of whom received a negative progress 8 score • Of the 10 pupils that had the highest number of foster placement moves, only 1 child achieved a pass (4+) in both English and Maths. With the above context in mind, a Year 11 cohort with a high number of SEND pupils (55%), a high number of foster placement moves met with school instability and transitions did not have a positive impact on 2017 outcomes. It is the utmost priority of the Virtual School to work alongside Education Providers and Childrens Social Care teams to highlight this analysis as absolutely critical for the 2017-18 academic year.
3
Page 93 of 128 City-wide Attainment 8 and Progress 8 scores have also reduced in comparison to those in the 2015-16 academic year. This was highlighted as due to new performance measures against English and Maths, as well as the slightly lowered point scores for calculating Attainment 8. This trend can be evidenced in the Full Version of the Virtual School Head’s Report and also the DfE LAIT.
LAC Educational Placements by Ofsted Quality 31/07/2017:

Of the 487 school age LAC in care at the time of 31/07/2017, 69% were in provisions deemed Good or Outstanding by Ofsted. This figure also includes Hull LAC placed in other local authority educational provisions.
Actions Identified for 2017-18
• To establish robust protocols across the service area to regularly maintain and monitor the attendance, exclusions and progress of all looked after children. This will be reviewed at the fortnightly team meetings. • To ensure frequent monitoring of all Post 16 LAC, their educational placements and the courses they are completing, as well as closely monitoring individual pupils recorded as NEET, and re-engaging them in education. • Regular audits will take place within the ePEP system to ensure all looked after children have a robust and up to date Personal Education Plan. • To continue to closely monitor the annual Pupil Premium Plus budget for looked after children, and to establish a graduated response process for Designated Teachers when requesting additional funding. • To monitor pupils against their school benchmarks and Fischer Family Trust estimates in order to hold schools to account for how individual looked after children are progressing within education.

Tel: 01482 615781 Email: [email protected] Date: 8th March 2018 Allocation Guidance on the Pupil Premium Plus for Children in Care
Financial Year 2018/19
As you may be aware, from April 2018 the DfE is to increase the allocation of Pupil Premium Plus to £2,300 for each child in care, per financial year. This funding is allocated to each Virtual School Headteacher for Looked After Children to be distributed amongst schools within the authority.
The conditions of the grant outline ways in which funding can be spent, with the expectation that the majority is claimed by schools to spend, as identified and recorded in each pupils electronic Personal Education Plan (ePEP).
In recent years, many authorities have been working alongside schools to identify creative ways as to how the grant could be spent to aid looked after pupils in the long term, and it was identified over the past two financial years within Hull that the equivalent of £500 per pupil has not been claimed by schools. This is not an immediate concern, as some pupils are being supported in other ways by other budgets, some pupils leave the looked after system and therefore become ineligible for PP+, and some simply do not need the additional funding to support their academic progress.
As a way to avoid a significant underspend, the Virtual School have utilised the additional funding to support a range of activities and services by the authority. Meaning, while the system for schools claiming funding works increasingly well, this surplus funding will not be returned to the DfE and will instead be held within our city to support some of the most vulnerable young people across the area.
The services utilised by the Virtual School include two PEP Advisory Teachers, one for Primary and one for Secondary, to support and assist the organisation and completion of Personal Education Plans. As well as a Transition Worker to assist Year 11 and Post 16 pupils to access higher education, additional Educational Psychologist support for pupils who need urgent access to the EP service when school support is unavailable, The Letterbox Club and Reading Mentor Scheme provided by Hull Children’s University, as well as a range of other activities such as the LAC Celebration Event, The Virtual School Conference, and Attachment Aware Training.
In addition to this, the funding is also utilised for some of the most complex cases within the authority and those that need intervention and support over and above their allocated amount. With the surplus funding available we are all better suited to support and aid these young people.
With the above information in mind, it has been decided by the Virtual School that the above underspend, highlighted over the past two years’ budget summaries, will be held by the Virtual School to continue the services above. This is the same policy as last year’s allocation, but the total available for schools to claim for each LAC across the academic year will now increase from £1,500 per financial year, to £1,800 per financial year.
Page 95 of 128 Funding will be available for schools to claim termly as per the timetable below:
Term Amount To be paid to schools Summer term (April – July) £600 By September 2018 Autumn term (September – December) £600 By January 2019 Spring term (January – March) £600 By March 2019
Funding will be distributed on the account that Designated Teachers for Looked After Children meet specific criteria as expected of their role, these include:
• Are all details of the PEP including attendance, attainment and the education summary complete? • Have costed targets been identified in the ePEP and all parts completed? • Has the Designated Teacher undertaken termly monitoring of the education section of the PEP? • Is the Pupil Premium being used effectively to ensure an individual child makes progress? • Does the Designated Teacher complete the termly progress return to the team’s Information Officer?
One of the main purposes of Pupil Premium grant is to raise the attainment of disadvantaged pupils and we feel, as a team, that this is the most appropriate and resourceful way of distribution for the 2018/19 academic year.
Schools with looked after pupils due to transfer at the end of the term are to be reassured that they will receive the Pupil Premium allocation for that pupil for the term they were on roll as long as a costed SMART target is placed onto a child’s PEP in a timely fashion.
Whilst schools are able to carry funding forward at the end of the financial year, it is advisable to utilise the funding in year in order to be able to satisfy the reporting requirements on how the Pupil Premium has been applied, as opposed to claiming at the end of the financial year.
Pupils Looked After by Other Local Authorities
The Department for Education (DfE) allocates the Pupil Premium to the local authority that looks after the child. Where children on the school roll are in the care of local authorities other than Hull, the Pupil Premium payment will be allocated by those other local authorities as per their local arrangements. As there is no national guidance on how to allocate Pupil Premium funding, local authorities have the discretion to determine their own arrangements. Schools should be aware that the funding of looked after pupils on roll may vary as a result. If you have difficulty securing funds, please contact the Virtual School Head in that authority. If you need further advice or clarification you should contact the Hull Virtual School Head.
Eligibility
Financial support is available as soon as a child enters care, claimable via the ePEP system.
Additionally since April 2014, schools in England have also attracted the Pupil Premium for:
V children adopted from care or who left care under a Special Guardianship Order (SGO)
Page 96 of 128 V children who left care under a Residence Order (RO) – now known as a Child Arrangement Order (CAO) - on or after 14 October 1991.
To secure the Pupil Premium for adopted children and those subject to a SGO or RO/CAO, parents and guardians will have needed to inform the school about their child’s circumstances and provide supporting evidence, for example, the Adoption (Court) Order in time for the school to record the child’s status on the January School Census.
This Pupil Premium funding, known as Post LAC, is paid at the start of the financial year as a single indicative amount. Following data verification by the EFA, an adjustment is made for actual funded numbers later in the summer term.
Please Note : A consultation period is currently taking place to determine whether the Virtual School will assume responsibility of not only LAC, but for Post LAC as described above. Current January census figures highlight over 250 pupils within the area that may fall under this category and with no current resources or funding available to support Virtual Schools across the country with this transition, the team must best prepare for further demand to come.
Recording use
The DFE sets out the expectation that all schools place on the school web site, examples of how the Pupil Premium has been used to support children’s learning and achievements. Whilst no individual child should be identifiable, schools should show the impact the additional funding has made. This includes those pupils who attract the Pupil Premium through the free school meals or Service personnel criteria.
The impact and use of the Pupil Premium for LAC should be recorded on a child’s Personal Education Plan. This plan is updated at least every six months, whenever a child changes school and the first PEP is initiated within 20 days of a child coming into care. Accurate assessments should be used to influence spending. There is an expectation that schools will use their own termly tracking to update the PEP.
The school’s Designated Teacher for LAC should be aware of the Pupil Premium budget that the school receives for Looked After Children and be able to demonstrate how effectively it has been utilised for each child.
It is considered good practice for an annual report to go to the school governing body, reporting on how the Pupil Premium has been spent and the impact the pupil premium has made on individual progress. This information will be required by OFSTED. No individual children should be identifiable within this report.
Use of Pupil Premium for Therapeutic Interventions
Children Services commissioners (the Local Authority and Care Commissioning Group) have asked the Virtual School to clarify the use of Pupil Premium for children who require social and emotional well-being support in order to help their readiness to learn.
Pupil Premium should not be spent on counselling therapy services that should be provided by statutory services (CAMHs) or in exceptional circumstances, other statutory services. This provision is subject to quality assurance by Health Commissioners.
Page 97 of 128 Pupil Premium can be spent on therapeutic interventions such as art, drama or Lego therapy or Emotional Literacy Support (ELSA) or Mindfulness, and Pupil Premium can also be used to purchased training for staff to deliver these.
Using the Pupil Premium effectively to improve attainment
Please be creative in your strategies to meet a child’s assessed needs:
• Schools will need to ensure that they utilise the Pupil Premium in ways which make a positive impact on the educational attainment and progression of each child for which it is intended.
• A school can decide how the Pupil Premium can be spent, however, they are advised to consult with carers, social workers, colleagues from the Virtual School and most significantly, the individual child to ensure it is used to support the education the child needs and deserves to help them succeed in life. Funding may be withheld if there is no assessment of individual impact.
• Targeted intervention is very successful for many children and 1:1 support or small group work with teaching or teaching assistant support would be high on the list of effective ways to use Pupil Premium in raising attainment and aspirations. Where schools elect to use a teaching assistant, this should be under the close direction of teachers. Pooling money for the benefit of a small group of children can be good practice where there are increased opportunities for peer interaction and diversity of learning styles.
• It may be that a whole school INSET session would benefit from training on such issues as Foetal Alcohol Syndrome, Trauma and Attachment issues or behaviour management techniques. Partnerships of schools could club together and either buy in experts in that field or involve Education Psychologists.
• For children whose attainment is better than their peer group, consideration can be given to strategies targeted at those considered ‘gifted and talented’ or providing opportunities they might not otherwise receive.
• How are the child or young person’s social skills and emotional well-being? Can addressing social skills and emotional well-being needs, through a concentration on the social and emotional aspects of learning, result in a child who can more readily learn and who is happier in school? This may include developing ‘circle of friends techniques’ or assessing needs through assessment tools like the Rickter Scale, then targeting identified weaker areas.
• This funding can be used to ensure 25 hours full-time provision is in place through individualised learning pathways. This may include one day work experience or a college placement for part of the week.
• Revision guides may be helpful for some young people who are motivated to work through these guides outside of school.
• Specific support in areas of extra-curricular interest – art materials, music, Duke of Edinburgh, drama or sports for example. Sports Premium money may also be targeted at specific pupils to increase engagement.
Page 98 of 128 • IT equipment and specific software programs for learning, e.g. laptops or digital cameras for photography qualifications.
• Academic mentoring or access at breakfast club or lunch times for identified support. • Clusters of schools may identify support that requires a high level of teaching support over a prolonged period. Sharing funding for the benefit of children and young people across communities is worthy of consideration.
• Targeting resources that can be parcelled up and sent home, can be a very effective way of motivating children. A new reading book, Kindle, or a subscription to a monthly periodical that can be delivered to the home, could encourage reading.

North Area Committee 26 th July 2018 Wards: Beverley & Newland, Orchard Park and University
North Area Neighbourhood Management Update
Briefing Note of the City Neighbourhood’s and Housing Manager
1. Purpose of the Briefing Note and Summary
1.1 To provide an update to the North Area Committee on ward activity across the Area.
2. Beverley and Newland Ward Update
Achievements
2.1 The partnership approach to waste collection from target student properties known as the ‘Pink Bag’ Scheme was successful and feedback from Hull University Union (HUU) Stars, who represent the students and the student’s union has been positive. Evaluation of the scheme is in process and the result will tabled at a future Ward Member briefing.
2.2 Ward funded trail cams that have been in use to monitor fly-tipping hotspots in the ward have been replaced with improved high resolution mobile CCTV units in the ward. The new units were funded by Waste Management and the use of the trail cams previously has influenced the locations of the cameras to be used in the future. The trail cams have been retained for use within the ward.
2.3 Following success of the rubber matting laid on part the Public Right of Way along the Riverbank from Sutton Road, making the terrain easier to traverse, the workforce has been booked to return and extend the matting further up to the “kissing gate”. Durability will be monitored over coming months to deduce suitability for the rest of the footpath as part of a larger project for the future.
Progress Updates
2.4 The feasibility study for creating an open green space for public use accessible from Sharp Street has been completed by Norfolk Property
Author: Neighbourhoods Co-ordinators - North Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 101 of 128
Services (NPS). Initial estimated costs of creating the space are more expensive than anticipated and options are being considered to fund the project with some cost savings.
2.5 The residents of Welwyn Park area continue to be supported to become a constituted residents group. Costs and options regarding gating improvements are being investigated.
2.6 The Goddard Avenue parking review carried out by a private company has been passed to the Council’s Major Projects & Infrastructure Team for evaluation and feedback. The suggestion to remove the pedestrian crossing refuge is not supported by the Team, although there are no real issues with planters being used to deter parking in some places. Any project will be progressed following discussion with the Ward members.
Future Plans
2.7 The Neighbourhood Team will be seeking to work with the Homeless Team to tackle aggressive begging in the Newland area.
2.8 The Neighbourhood Team will be supporting a PDSA event in the ward, likely to take place in the car park to Oak Road playing field. Details will be widely publicised in due course.
3. Orchard Park Ward Update
Achievements
3.1 The Orchard Park Bus forum took place on 12 th July between 10 am & 7 pm. It was the first time a forum of this nature had been held in the area visiting 7 different locations during the course of the day. The event was popular and well received by residents who took part.
3.2 The new Shaw Park sports changing rooms (funded via the ward budget) are now in place. They vastly improve the sports facilities at this site, providing separate changing rooms for each team.
3.3 A number of informal engagement events working with the Community Policing Team have taken place at the Orchard Park shops and Tesco on Hall Road. An increased number of residents have signed up for the ‘My Community Alert’ scheme which provides local community safety updates.
Progress Updates
3.4 The Danepark pitches boundary improvement scheme is progressing well; work is being carried out in partnership with the Flood Risk team. The ‘bund and swale’ was extended early in July to prevent ALL vehicle
Author: Neighbourhoods Co-ordinators - North Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 102 of 128
access to the site following 2 further unauthorised traveller encampments in June. The Neighbourhood Team is looking at options for installing a barrier so that the fields can be accessed by authorised personnel so that grass cutting can take place.
3.5 The Neighbourhood Team worked with the Parks Children’s Centre to hold an event for the ‘Playing out’ initiative on 31 st May in the Highcourt area. Turn out on the day was below what was expected. The Neighbourhood Team are now making plans to hold information events at Thorpe Park Primary school with staff and parents to encourage take up of the initiative.
3.6 The North Neighbourhood Team have worked with local groups as part of the Area Youth Network to plan activities for young people during the summer holidays. The programme is now finalised and includes an enhanced range of activities being delivered by both statutory and voluntary organisations across the Area. All activities delivered in the ward during the summer holidays with have a ‘healthy holidays’ theme where young people participating will be provided with a meal.
3.7 Work is ongoing with the Communities Policing team to address the issues of anti-social behaviour in the vicinity of the Orchard Park shops. A number of target hardening measures are being progressed and the Neighbourhood Team are in regular contact with staff working in the shop units to respond to identified ASB.
Future Plans
3.8 Hull City Council Property Asset Team are exploring options regarding the marketing of the Orchard park shops as a number of units remain unavailable. A briefing has been requested for both Orchard Park and University Ward Councillors so that potential community use can be explored.
3.9 Following the success of the first bus forum held in the ward on 12 th July a further two are to be held during the autumn and spring. Partners are to be invited to take part in the events.
3.10 A feasibility study for Courtland Road play area has been produced. Ward Members will be working with Streetscene and the local community to develop options for the site.
3.11 A ward wide newsletter is being drafted to include good news stories, provide residents with valuable information about what services are offer locally and encourage the community to come forward with new ideas for how funding can be spent in the ward.

4. University Ward Update
Achievements
4.1 Eternal Benefits are running a series of highly successful family fun nights every Friday evening on King George V Playing Fields. A contribution to the cost of the events was met from the University ward Budget.
4.2 The University Ward budget has funded resurfacing works on Inglemire Lane footpaths between Oldstead Avenue and the former Police Boys Club site. Work will begin on site w/c 22 July 2018.
4.3 Quaddy Gardens project is well underway (at 50-52 The Quadrant) with fencing funded by Area budgets now in place. Additional volunteers are being sought and the site is being transformed. Feedback from local residents so far has been very positive.
Progress Updates
4.4 The 2018 Beach Day event on King George V Playing Playing Fields will take place on Friday 27 th July. A wide range of organisations will be involved delivering a comprehensive programme of events which as well as a ‘beach’ area will include arts and crafts, an obstacle course, children’s rides, donkey rides and many more family fun activities.
4.5 Ward Councillors and the Neighbourhood Team will be working more closely with the University of Hull to develop the area immediately surrounding the University and involve the university in other local projects where appropriate such as redevelopment of King George V Playing Fields.
4.6 Work continues to develop options for the regeneration of King George V Playing Fields. It is proposed that consultation on a series of options is undertaken in conjunction with the newly established Friends Group as soon as they are up and running.
4.7 The Neighbourhood Team and Ward Members met with volunteers and staff from Respect Eternal Benefits regarding extending the provision on offer particularly with regard to youth work. Potential funding sources are being investigated.
Future Plans
4.8 A series of highways projects are under discussion focusing on road and pedestrian safety. These include options for improving the area around Endike Lane shopping area and the feasibility of introducing a 20 mph zone around Hall Road Academy.
Author: Neighbourhoods Co-ordinators - North Status: FINAL Date: 18/07/2018 Page 104 of 128
4.9 Consideration is being given to the implementation of a one way system of travel to be introduced in the Woodcroft Avenue/ Grangeside Avenue area of the ward. Any project will be subject to resident consultation.
