Purpose:
Under section 14 of the Education Act 1996
Local Authorities have a statutory duty to ensure that there are
sufficient schools for primary and secondary education in their
areas. In order to achieve this the Council's priority is to ensure
there is sufficient provision of school places in the right areas
to meet needs. These places can be delivered within community,
academy, free school and voluntary aided schools.
S106 contributions are received by the Council from Developers for
housing development in an area. The S106 contributions that are the
subject of this Officer Delegated Decision are received by the
Council to expand or enhance primary school provision in any
existing primary school serving the area of the development or
providing new primary school places in the area of the
development.
Allocating S106 contributions amounting to £89,434.86
received by the Council to Clutton Primary School will enable the
school to carry out projects to expand and enhance their
accommodation and increase their capacity from 147 to 175 allowing
a permanent Planned Admission Number (PAN) of 25 across all year
groups.
The project will enable local children to attend their nearest
village school.
