To report on the outcome of consultation on
the proposal for school places for three year olds.
145/2006 The Cabinet authorised the Director
of Children's Services to publish a public notice proposing a
variation of the age range of Swingate Infant School to allow the
admission of children aged three years with effect from January
2007.
The establishment of a Foundation Stage unit
at Swingate Infant school would be consistent with the Council's
duty to secure an education place for all three and four year olds
whose parents want one.The public consultation process indicated
significant support from parents and other stakeholders of the
merits of the proposal. Ultimately, should there be a formal
objection to the proposals set out in the public notice, the final
decision will be taken by the independent Schools Organisation
Committee.
