West Wight School Implementation

All Saints' and Yarmouth Schools - Implementation meetings

 

Purpose

The purpose of the implementation meetings is to decide how best to enact the decisions made regarding All Saints and Yarmouth schools following the recent West Wight consultations, and to monitor the progress of the actions decided such that the education and wellbeing of the pupils and staff at the schools are maintained whilst all transition and completion processes are undertaken and finalised.

Decisions regarding the relevant issues around All Saints and Yarmouth schools will be agreed at the implementation meetings.

Minutes

An executive summary (minutes) will be created and published within two weeks of each meeting. This will be emailed by the business services officer of the implementation group to:

  • Councillor Brading
  • Relevant staff at the LA and Diocese
  • West Wight Headteachers and Chairs of Governors
  • West Wight preschools

The executive summary will be published:

  • On the school website (or a link to the IoW Council website)
  • Through the school newsletter
  • On the IW Council website (This will happen from 12 February 2020)

Any questions that arise from the executive summary will be answered by the mechanism described below.

Questions

Questions from staff, parents and the wider community are to be shared with the Head Teacher of the school. At least one week before each implementation meeting, the Head Teacher will collate the questions and send them via the business services officers to the implementation group. The implementation group will have at least a week to consider the questions and draft answers.

There will be an agenda item at each implementation meeting under which the answers to each question will be discussed and agreed. If no answer is possible at that time, this will be agreed and provided as a response.

Within two weeks of the meeting the questions and answers will be published:

  • On the school website (or a link to the IW Council website)
  • On the IoW Council website

 

The Implementation Group meets regularly and we will publish executive minutes following each meeting.
