Report of Town Clerk.

The Education Board received for information a report of the Town Clerk regarding the City University Maths Project. The Board reviewed an annual evaluation report of the projects progress with the City of London Academy Islington. The report was for the approval of year 2 funding. Chairman informed the Board that the Finance Committee had approved the release of the year 2 funding and the responsibility for funding Year 3 of the Project had passed to the Education Board.

A Member queried why the evaluation report did not mention whether or not the pupils grades in mathematics had improved. The Education Strategy Advisor informed the Board that the pupil’s test results had been sent by the City of London Academy Islington and future evaluation reports would include test scores as part of the outcomes of the project.

RESOLVED – That the Education Board note the contents of the City University Maths Project report.
