The DHT has launched a “look at our curriculum” with the view to expanding
the School’s vision. This will result in a new Teaching & Learning Policy.
- The School is holding an Inclusion Day which will focus on disabilities including
physical, vision and hearing. Children will have the opportunity to find out what
its like living with a disability. Outside speakers will be involved.
It was recognised that for some of the issues to be monitored this would be best
achieved via presentations to the FGB as opposed to individual governor monitoring
visits. Monitoring responsibilities outside of the SIP were also shared with
governors.
7. Finance – Review year end outturn for revenue and capital – At the end of the
financial year to the 31st March the school had an in-year deficit of £17,631 with an
overall surplus position of £116,841 on its revenue budget. The Capital budget was
used to repay the loan, the deficit could not be more than the amount of money
owing on the loan. There was an in-year deficit of £34,972 and the amount of the
loan outstanding was £37,850.
New 3-year plan – Year 1 2018-19 will carry an in-year deficit forecast of £52,722
with an overall surplus of £64,119. In year surpluses are forecast for years 2 and 3
with a surplus of £145,992 projection at the end of year 3, although this is
dependent on whether or not the hard version of NFF comes in to effect.
