Full council record

Purpose

Lancashire County Council has a statutory duty to ensure that a primary or secondary school place is available for every child of statutory school age living in Lancashire who requests one.

As a result of the loss of places from the closure of Hameldon Community College, and large primary school year groups moving through to secondary schools, additional secondary school places are required in Burnley for admission in the 2021/22 academic year.

Decision

The Cabinet approved the recommendation(s) as set out in the report.
