Minutes:

Liz Williams, Head of Finance, DCE summarised her report and highlighted the information on ‘Managed Moves Primary Phase’ assembled by Julie le Mesurier.

 

A discussion ensued focused on the process for managed moves for children of a primary age. It was noted that the child at risk of exclusion should be ensured a chance at a new start where possible, with the process conducted in a measured and controlled manner. The benefits of the ‘brokering’ role provided by YPSS when used were also noted.

 

Resolved:

 

To note the report and recommendations from the Schools Forum SEN Working group, and refer the ‘Managed Moves Primary Phase’ information to the Primary Heads Forum (PHF) and also the Primary Heads Behaviour Support Working Group.
