Revocation Proposal: Expansion of Furzefield Primary School
At the Cabinet Member Meeting of 3 March 2016, it was formally decided to determine a Statutory Notice that brought “into effect the formal expansion of Furzefield Primary School by 1 Form of Entry (1FE) for September 2016.” However, subsequent to this decision, it has become apparent that the Council and the school are unable to come to agreement on the built solution required to deliver this expansion. As such, the Council has undertaken consultation to revoke this proposed expansion.
The Cabinet Member is asked to review the rationale for revocation and summary of the consultation process/feedback provided within this report and, on that basis, decide whether to determine the associated Statutory Notice.
Additional documents: Decision: It was agreed that the Cabinet Member determines the Statutory Notice, thereby revoking the formal expansion of Furzefield Primary School by 1 Form of Entry (1 FE) for September 2016.

Proposal for a nursery on the site of the Ridgeway School
Following the academy conversion in 2015 of The Pilgrim's Way school (now known as Highfield South Farnham School) The Ridgeway school no longer had access to the shared nursery facility on the Highfield site. Since this time The Ridgeway School has made a greatly reduced nursery offer for pupils with significant levels of Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) in a small room that is well below the required size outlined in the Department for Education’s required baseline standards. This proposal will provide nursery provision on the main site of The Ridgeway school.
Decision: It was agreed that the Cabinet Member:
1. Approves the business case for the project to extend the Ridgeway School to include a Nursery providing for 8 full time equivalent (FTE) places. 2. Approves the arrangements by which a variation of up to 10% of the total value may be agreed by the Deputy Chief Executive and Strategic Director for Children, Schools and Families in consultation with the Cabinet Member for Schools, Skills and Educational Achievement, the Cabinet Member for Business Services and Resident Experience and the Leader of the Council.
