Tomlinson Review Update

The Chair to be heard.

Minutes:

The Chair was heard relative to the Tomlinson Review update. The following points were noted:

  • Sufficient progress had been made since the last meeting as the deadline for input of views approached. The Chair thanked all those who had contributed.
  • A report was being drafted to be submitted to the April meeting of Policy & Resources, before being submitted to the Education Board for information. This was due to the Tomlinson Working Party having been established by Policy & Resources.
  • Two key constraints had been identified: the 12% budget cuts and the projected growth of the academies.

 

Discussion took place regarding budget cuts in the next financial year, with several Members supportive of reassessment.

 

RESOLVED, that the update be received.
