    Surrey County Council (SCC) has consulted on a proposal to extend the age range at St Nicholas school from 1 March 2016.

     

    The consultation period was from 4 November to 18 November and there was a public meeting during this time, held at the school on 11 November 2015. Statutory Notices were issued on 19 November 2015, which were displayed on the school site and published in the local newspaper, stating the intention to change the age range of the school. 

     

    The Cabinet Member is asked to review the proposal and comments received during the consultation and statutory notice periods.

     

    Decision:

    The Cabinet Member agreed to:

     

    1.    Determine the Statutory Notice stating the Local Authority’s intention to change the age range of the school, such that the age range of the school is to be extended to include up to 10 Year 5 and 6 pupils from 1 March 2016.

    2.    Approve the provision of a two classroom modular building to deliver the accommodation required for the additional pupils at a total cost of £465,000.

    3.    Approve the arrangements by which a variation of up to 10% of the total value may be agreed by the Deputy Chief Executive in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Schools, Skills and Educational Achievement and the Leader of the Council.
