To consider a change in age range at this School with effect from 1 September 2009.

Consideration was given to a change in the age range at this School from 4-11 to 3-11, with effect from 1 September 2009, so as to allow the continuing operation of the maintained nursery unit.

The Portfolio Holder for Children and Family Services reported that initially the local Ward Members for Broken Cross had been consulted on this change but that this had now been extended to those for Macclesfield West as the School fell within that Ward.  No objections had been raised.

RESOLVED

For the reasons set out in the report :-

1. That approval be given to the proposal to change the age range of Broken Cross Community School from 4-11 to 3-11 and to re-establish the maintained nursery unit with effect from 1 September 2009.

2. That approval be given to a permanent budget virement of £34,265 to the Individual Schools Budget from the Early Years Budget.
