Issue details

Academy Conversion of the Danesgate Community

Purpose of Report: There are a number of complex issues related to the conversion of the Danesgate Community to academy status. These include land and access issues which will need to be agreed as part of the land lease to the academy trust.

 

The Local Authority will also need to agree the number of pupil places that it wants to commission as Danesgate is an alternative provision academy and therefore does not have a planned admission number (PAN) in the same way that a mainstream or special school has.
