Report by Director for Children’s Services (CMDED4).

This report follows a public consultation on the educational specification for a new primary school. The planned new school will be in Banbury, on the Southam Road housing development which is already underway, and forms part of the county council's long term educational strategy for the town.

The consultation process and responses received are summarised in the report and a draft specification is recommended for formal approval, against which potential sponsors will submit their Expressions of Interest in running the new school.

The Cabinet Member is asked to note the outcomes of the consultation and is RECOMMENDED to approve the specification for the new primary school for Southam Road, Banbury.
