Decision:

The Chief Officer, Partnerships and Health approves a continued pause to the phased introduction of the changes for new entrants scheduled for September 2019. This is to allow time for a review of feedback from families, publication of revised post-16 statutory guidance for transport and a review of the recent LGO ruling. Any changes to be introduced will be communicated to families in advance of making post-16 choices for the start of the 2020/21 academic year so that transport arrangements can be given consideration during the Year 11 EHCP review and post-16 decision-making process.
