As Cabinet Member for Children,
Young People and Education, I have noted the commissioning
intentions for SEN provision as outlined in the paper and agree to
increase the designated number of The Beacon Folkestone from 336 to
380 places.
Reason(s) for decision: In
reaching this decision I have taken into
account:
- The
increase in the number of pupils with an EHCP in need of specialist
provision.
- The
views of the Local Members, Area Education Officer, Headteacher and
Governors of The Beacon Folkestone and Castle Hill Community
Primary School,
- The
responses to the public consultation,
- The
views of the Children’s, Young People and Education Cabinet
Committee
