Agenda item

Schools' Forum Membership and Constitution from September 2018 (Jessica Bailiss)

Minutes:

Jessica Bailiss introduced the report (Agenda Item 6) which aimed to review and where necessary update the Membership and Constitution of the Schools’ Forum. It was highlighted that there was a typographical error on page 11, section 2.1, and that the date for approval would be from September 2018.

Jessica Bailiss explained that the membership for the Schools’ Forum must reflect the proportion of pupils within each sector. No schools had converted to an academy since September 2017 however, Lambourn Primary School was due to convert in September 2018 and therefore the pupil numbers for this school had been included with information for academies. Jessica Bailiss added that even with this in mind, there had not been a significant enough change to require a change to the composition of the Forum.

In terms of changes to the Constitution there was one amendment proposed under section 5.1 of the report, regarding attendance and a six month rule.

In conclusion it was recommended that the Schools’ Forum approve the Membership and Constitution as set out in section 2.1 of the report. Keith Harvey proposed that the Forum approve the Membership and Constitution and this was seconded by John Chishick. At the vote the motion was carried.

RESOLVED that the Schools’ Forum approved the Membership and Constitution from September 2018.
