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. |

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.

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 set 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.

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 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. |
