Report by Director of Children’s Services (CMDE4).

At the meeting of 22 April 2013, the Cabinet Member approved publication of a statutory notice for extending the lower age range of Hill View Primary School. This was stage 1 of the proposal to create an FSU at the school. The statutory notice was published on 3 May 2013 and the 6 week consultation period has now closed. Two representations were received, both in support of the proposal.

Under the County Council Scheme for creating a new FSU, the Cabinet member will determine the proposal after publication of the Statutory notice where no objections have been received.

The Cabinet Member for Education is RECOMMENDED to either:

(a)              approve the proposal;

(b)              reject the proposal;

(c)               approve the proposal subject to the following conditions:

·              that the proposed internal and external building works to bring the building in line with EYFS standards take place.

·              that the school revise their fire management programme to include the FSU in the former caretakers bungalow.

·              that all conditions are met before the proposed implementation date.

Agreed.
