    Minutes:

    1. Mr Watts, Area Education Officer (North Kent), said the proposal to expand Mayfield Grammar School in Gravesend would maintain an element of proportionality between selective and non-selective schools. Mr Watts brought the current pressures in the area to the Cabinet Committee’s attention and explained that this was due to oversubscription within the admissions criteria. The report requested a maximum sum of £5.2 million for the expansion and Mr Watts confirmed that the team were working closely with the Education Funding Agency as the School was eligible for the Priority Schools Build Programme. The Head Teacher and Governing Body fully supported the proposal.

     

    2. RESOLVED – That the Cabinet Committee endorsed the proposed decision of the Cabinet Member for Education and Health Reform to:

     

    (i) Allocate a sum of up to £5.2 million from the Education and Young People’s Services Capital Budget to fund any necessary additional works or variations to accommodation.

     

    (ii) Authorise the Director of Infrastructure, in consultation with the General Counsel, to enter into any necessary contracts/ agreements on behalf of the County Council.

     

    (iii) Authorise the Director of Infrastructure to be the nominated Authority Representative within the relevant agreements and to enter into variations as envisaged under the contracts.
