Delivering Better Value in SEND – Acceptance of Grant Allocation from the Department for Education

 

Yes

North Yorkshire Council has been participating in the Delivering Better Value in SEND programme, sponsored by the Department of Education through 2023. 52 other local authorities have participated in the programme, which is intended to identify opportunities to improve outcomes for children and young people with SEND and support local authorities in improving the financial sustainability of their high needs budgets. All authorities within the programme are entitled to apply for an implementation grant of up to £1 million to support the delivery of a change programme. A grant application of £1 million has been submitted – this will be assessed by the DfE, and at this stage we cannot say if the grant application will be successful. However, because the time availability to deploy the grant is restricted, we are planning for all eventualities – and this report will outline the considerations in whether North Yorkshire should accept the grant allocation, if such an offer is forthcoming

 

The change programme contained in the grant application has been the subject of extensive discussion and consultation with key stakeholder groups, including Schools Forum and the High Needs Funding Sub Group, the five locality boards, parent and carer representatives, health sector partners and school headteacher networks.
Critically the proposals were informed by case study workshops that involved parents and carers, school representatives, health sector colleagues and professionals from within Children and Young People’s Services – facilitated by Newton Europe (who are the firm delivering the programme on behalf of the DfE.
We will be further engaging with these partners to develop our thinking further about the delivery of the change programme – in anticipation of the grant application being successful

Yes

To seek Executive Member approval to accept a grant in the sum of £1,410,570 from the Department for Education to deliver the national Holiday Activities & Food Programme (HAF) for North Yorkshire in 2024/25.

The HAF grant is offered to all upper tier authorities in England to provide a programme of free holiday activities and food during the main school holiday periods of Easter, Summer and Christmas. Free places are offered to all ‘means tested free school meal’ eligible school age children. Provision should be delivered in line with the grant criteria of:

Easter - 4 hours per day for 4 days

Summer – 4 hours per day for 16 days

Christmas – 4 hours per day for 4 days

Local Authorities have flexibility regarding how the provision is delivered and in North Yorkshire the programme is delivered as a consortia between the Council and local community based providers.

The grant offer for the 2024/25 is marginally higher that the grant in 2023/24 (£1,378,320). The programme is fully funded by the DfE and no additional costs are incurred by North Yorkshire Council. jack

Housing Assistance and Disabled Adaptations Policy

 

Yes

Due to the variations in approach towards the method of delivery of the disabled facilities grant, there were also some subtle variations between the legacy areas in relation to their policy approach and their interpretation and implementation of legislation. Whilst all areas are using the powers and flexibilities given within the legislation, there has been some variation in terms of scope of works undertaken along with differences in financial thresholds and parameters adopted. The report will outline how the policy seeks to draw together an interpretation of the mandatory elements of Disabled Facilities Grant (DFG) legislation and the discretionary elements of the RRO into a single published document. The report will therefore sets out the key recommendations for the policy and seek agreement to adopt the North Yorkshire Housing Assistance and Disabled Facilities Grant Policy for the new authority. The new policy is to be adopted for all tenures, to provide a consistent approach to delivering adaptations for owners and tenants in the private sector and our own housing tenants.

Consultation was undertaken initially as part of the LGR work streams.

A housing enforcement workshop was utilised to discuss the key points of the policy amongst all staff delivering housing enforcement.

Adult Learning and Skills Service Accountability Agreement 2024-25

 

Yes

As a provider of adult education in receipt of grant funding of over £1m we must write and publish an accountability statement to form part 2 of our funding agreement with the Skills Funding Agency. We have also been advised that to meet financial procedure rules we must also document approval to receive the recurring grant funding that will make up part 1 of the documentation.

The statement is a mandatory part of the legislation linked to our current funding arrangements but must make clear reference to a document, written by West and North Yorkshire Chamber of commerce called the Learning Skills Improvement Plan (LSIP) and the key priorities of the council. This document is this year’s version of a document approved for 2023-24 and our response is largely based upon the strategy for adult learning and skills engagement that we consulted on in July 2022 and just defines targets based on the LSIP and national skills requirements

 

The document will have been produced with full internal consultation with colleagues in inclusion service, economic development, training and learning and the wider localities teams, external consultation is based upon work with local further education providers as part of the LSIP steering board, with colleagues from the combined authority as part of the work to shape the MCA skills strategy and with colleagues at Yorkshire Learning Providers.

Whilst the document must respond to local key priorities it is key to the service to position this within the wider education landscape. Open consultation is not deemed necessary as the plan aligns the strategic direction of the service (subject to full open consultation) with these priorities the document must detail the key role the service plays in the adult education ecosystem, so consultation with these stakeholder groups is essential and will involve direct feedback on drafts of the document.
