Report of the Chair of the Learning & Engagement Forum.

Members considered a report of the Chair of the City of London Learning & Engagement Forum regarding the establishment of a cultural education partnership. The Chairman noted that the funding for the proposed learning initiative had been agreed in principle by the Policy and Resources Committee, but that a satisfactory business case had yet to be presented to him and the Deputy Chairman under delegated authority. To allow the project to progress, Members therefore agreed to release £30,000 of the agreed funding subject to a further report and business case being submitted to a future meeting of the Board in late 2017.

RESOLVED, that Members approve the release of £30,000 of the agreed £150,000 funding to allow the proposal progress, subject to a business case being submitted to a future meeting of the Education Board for approval.
