Proposal to increase places at West Lancashire Community High School
| Purpose | This proposal is to make sure we have enough special school places for all young people with special educational needs. All special schools in Lancashire are over-subscribed. Children and young people already on the roll at West Lancashire Community High School will still be able to attend the school and should not experience any increase in class size as a result of the increase to approved numbers. An informal consultation took place between 7 December 2022 and 20 January 2023. The written responses to the informal consultation were considered by the Executive Director for Education and Children's Services and the Cabinet Member for Education and Skills after the 20 January at the end of the consultation period and some concerns were raised. We would like your views on this proposed expansion of West Lancashire Community High School. An event will be held at the school so that you can get more information and ask any questions you may have. Details about this will be available on the school website Careful consideration will be given to all responses that are received on or before 28 February 2023. These responses will be used to inform us how to develop this proposal, ready for a formal consultation that is needed to make a change like this to a school. |
