Briefing Paper to the Chair of the Governing Body Regarding Budget Deficit for |Academic Year 03/04 Introduction Grange School is an inner city secondary school located in an area of social depravation. ... The school management and Governing Body have a legal and moral duty to the students and wider community to ensure education provided is of the highest standard. ... Identified Budget Deficit The challenges of meeting our legal and moral duties could be severely hampered by an identified significant deficit in the projected budget for the academic year 2003/2004. The deficit is due to increased staff costs, national insurance contributions and falling pupil numbers. This could have serious implications for the school, seriously damaging the schools academic achievement targets and will require careful management by all those involved. Options This paper aims to set out the options open to the Governing Body and the school for consideration. Following discussion with the Deputy Head and School Advisor, several options have been identified which if implemented may bring the school within the budget allocated. ... Should the Governing Body decide to close the unit this will greatly increase the need for Learning Support Assistants. ...

The analysis is based on preliminary figures Local Education Authorities have provided in their own budget statements. ... The Governing Body must also consider recent changes in legislation. ... I ask that the governing body look at other methods of making the required savings. ... I remind the governing body of its statutory duty towards pupils with special education needs. |
