To consider a report of the Cabinet Member for Children’s Services seeking approval to make amendments to the statutory proposals that were published in January and February 2011.
The first amendment is to put back the expansion of Fairisle Infant and Junior schools by one year, as the demand for places in this area is less than anticipated. The second is to amend the admissions arrangements for Wordsworth Infant school so that the school can admit Year 3 pupils from September 2013, two years earlier than originally planned as the extra classrooms at the school will be available earlier than anticipated. This decision is subject to the completion of a consultation which will indicate whether or not there is demand for additional year 3 places at Wordsworth in 2013.
