Decision details
*Re-published: call-in no longer applies* Re: Springhead School – Satellite Specialist Sixth Form Provision
Decision Maker: Executive Member for Education, Learning & Skills
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: No
Decision:
To approve public consultation on a proposal
to formally confirm the establishment of satellite specialist sixth
form provision for Springhead School on the former Graham Lower
School site in Scarborough
Reasons for the decision:
*PLEASE NOTE This decision was originally
published on or near the date of the decision and so call in no
longer applies. It has been re-published as part of the change in
committee management system that we use.*
In 2017, in response to a specific pressure on places at Springhead
School, the Local Authority supported the school through an
informal consultation on moving their Sixth Form provision onto a
site at Lady Edith’s Drive in Scarborough. This had formerly
been the Graham Lower School Site and was vacant at that
point.
This proposal was subsequently agreed and implemented by the
Governing Body of Springhead School. This decision was temporary
and it was noted that the decision would be reviewed within three
years and if the proposal was to be continued then a formal
statutory process would need to be followed.
Under the arrangements agreed by The Executive on 25 September
2007, decisions to approve public consultation on school
organisation proposals for which the decision maker is the Local
Authority, will normally be taken by the Executive Members for
Schools.
