Education sufficiency strategy

From the section: SEND Strategic Activity

Education sufficiency strategy

The education sufficiency strategy will help all stakeholders understand the need for school place planning. It also establishes the principles against which school reorganisation will be planned.

The strategy will consider the future need for school places throughout the borough and set out the framework within which the Council will consider the organisation of school places over the next five years.

The aim of the draft education sufficiency strategy is to set out the way that Solihull Council intends to address its statutory responsibility to ensure a sufficiency of places across all areas of education provision including:

  • Early Years (0 to 4 years)
  • Mainstream - primary and secondary (4 to 16 years)
  • Alternative Provision (4 to 16 years)
  • Post-16 (16 to 19 years)
  • Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) (0 to 25 years)
