Actions arising from previous meetings

Minutes:

Actions Jan22-Ac1, Ac2 and Ac5 were completed.

Jane Seymour referred to Jan22-Ac3 regarding the need to make it clearer the number of places being budgeted for, given that funding was not provided for the number of places needed. For special schools, 365 planned places were received and an additional 46 were having to be budgeted for at a cost of £460k per annum. Jane Seymour explained that for resourced provision they were not having to budget for extra places. At iCollege budgeting for extra places for students with EHCPs was needed and there were 18 students in total, at a cost of £180k.

Jane Seymour referred to Jan22-Ac3 regarding providing information on capacity of existing provision, so that pressure in the system could be judged. The 46 additional places being funded were the maximum places that could be catered for by special schools. Resourced provision was not over on numbers. To put this in context, Jane Seymour explained that there were 1170 EHCPs and planned place funding was not received for all of these. Funding was only received for places at special schools, resourced school, FE and iCollege.
