  • DRAFT Solihull School Organisation Plan 2016
    DRAFT Solihull School Organisation Plan 2016 Contact us School Place Planning, Solihull Council, Manor Square, Solihull B91 3QB [email protected] 0121 704 6702 School Organisation Plan – 2016 1. Introduction This is the School Organisation Plan (SOP) for Solihull Council which seeks to set a baseline for school places across Solihull and consider external influences that are driving a need to change school places over the short to medium term. The Plan provides information regarding the current and future pupil population and capacity of schools in Solihull, draws conclusions regarding the potential need to add school places and identifies a number of other issues that may have a significant impact on the need for school places. The aim of the School Organisation Plan is to help the Council and the wider community understand the need for school place planning and to establish future demand. It will provide the basis against which school reorganisation will be planned. The plan itself is not intended to identify individual schools for change, but to consider the future need for school places throughout the Borough. This Plan sets out the framework within which Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council will consider the organisation of school places over the next five years. The Plan includes detailed demographic information, and identifies a number of other issues that may have a significant impact on the need for school places. The data within this plan for mainstream pupils is based on the October 2015 pupil count, and will be updated annually following the October pupil count. For Chapter 5 Special Educational Needs and Alternative Curriculum Providers the data is at January 2016.
