Decision details

Reject proposals:

i.              That Madani Boys’ School will lower its age range from its current age range of 11 through to 16, to an age range of 4 through to 16 with effect from 1 September 2016 subject to planning permission and acquisition of site being met.

ii.            That Madani Girls’ School will lower its age range from its current age range of 11 through to 16, to an age range of 4 through to 16 with effect from 1 September 2016 subject to planning permission and acquisition of site being met.

Considering the attached paperwork, it is concluded that the capital proposal put forward does not represent the best that can be achieved in terms of:

(i)            A high quality teaching and learning environment for primary aged pupils.

(ii)          The availability of outdoor space for play and playing fields.

The Council is therefore not able to commit capital in support of these proposals

In considering prescribed alteration proposals, when issuing a decision, the decision maker (LA) can:

1. reject the proposals;

2. approve the proposals without modifications;

3. approve the proposals with modifications (e.g. the implementation date); or

4. approve the proposals – with or without modification – subject to certain prescribed events (such as the granting of planning permission) being met.
