The Cabinet
meeting of 4 September 2012 approved a process for the identification of sponsors
for new academies to meet the needs of population growth such as this which
requires a new secondary school for 2019.It was subsequently agreed in the
meeting of 15th July 2014 that the final recommendation should be a
decision delegated to the cabinet member responsible for Education.
This process has
been followed and has now reached the point where a preferred provider has been
identified from a group of 4 short-listed bidders which were assessed against
criteria.
The cabinet
member is asked to agree the recommended provider which will be submitted to
the Secretary of State for Education for a final decision.
However the Department for Education has directed that the recommendation must not be made public, therefore this has to be kept confidential.
The Cabinet Member is RECOMMENDED to
approve the preferred provider to be submitted to the Secretary of State for
Education for final agreement.
