    2017 Diocesan House for Durham and Newcastle Dioceses Peace... 2 Dear Friends, What a busy year it has been! We celebrated our 70th Anniversary at a lovely garden party in June and it was a joy to share the day with so many of our friends and to see the house and grounds looking so beautiful. The Stirling Newall family, who gifted the house to the church 70 years ago, had a clear vision of what they wanted the house and grounds to be used for and I hope that we continue to hold true to that vision today; a place of retreat, refreshment and peace which is used both by church groups and by the wider community. With the approach of Autumn comes the changing Jane Easterby, Warden, the Ven. Ian Jagger, Archdeacon of Durham, the of colours in the gardens of Shepherds Dene and the Rt. Rev.

  • Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic
    Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic Year 2020/21 Report of Corporate Management Team Margaret Whellans, Corporate Director, Children and Young People's Services Councillor Olwyn Gunn, Portfolio Holder for Children and Young People’s Services Electoral division(s) affected: Countywide Purpose of the Report 1 The purpose of this report is to ask Cabinet to consider and approve the proposed admission arrangements and oversubscription criteria for Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools for the 2020/21 academic year. Executive summary 2 There is a proposed additional criterion to the current oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools. The Government wishes admission authorities to introduce oversubscription criteria to give children who were previously in state care outside of England, and have ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted, second highest priority for admission into school. This is because the Government believes such children are vulnerable and may have experienced abuse and neglect prior to being adopted. 3 Consultation has been carried out with schools, other admission authorities, Governing Bodies and parents on the council's admission arrangements in accordance with the national School Admissions Code as it is 7 years since they were last consulted on. Recommendation 4 Cabinet is asked to agree the proposed oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools; and to agree the following in respect of Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools, when determining the admission arrangements for 2020/21: (i) That the proposed admission numbers as recommended in Appendix 2 be approved. (ii) That the admission arrangements at Appendix 3 be approved.
