The building of an additional classroom is
necessary to create a safe learning environment for a child with an
Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). It has been identified that
Our Lady of Sorrows is the only school in the pyramid which can
accommodate the needs of the child. However, there is a need to
create an inclusive mainstream environment within the school and
this development will enable the school to meet the needs set out
in the child’s EHCP, ensuring the well-being of the child is
maintained.
To create an additional classroom at Our Lady
of Sorrows Catholic Voluntary Academy utilising £41,000 from
the Special Educational Needs (SEN) Capital Fund following
direction from the Joint Resource Panel (September 2019)
1. To not agree with the outcome of the Joint
Resource Panel and not draw down funds for this project. This would
be in detriment to the child’s development and learning as it
would force continued home tuition.
