Y gyllideb flynyddol fel y mae'n berthnasol i faterion addysg PDF 242 KB Y Cynghorydd Robert Smith, Aelod y Cabinet dros Wella Addysg, Dysgu a Sgiliau, a Helen Morgan Rees (Cyfarwyddwr Addysg) a Addysg Cabinet Papers 17/02/2022 (ar gael ar-lein o 10/02/2022) Cofnodion: The Panel thanked the Cabinet Member Cllr Robert Smith, the Director Helen Morgan Rees and the Head of Education Planning and Resources Brian Roles for the comprehensive presentation and attending the panel to discuss the issues. The following points from the discussion will be forwarded to the Service Improvement and Finance Scrutiny Performance Panel for discussion and inclusion in their letter giving feedback on scrutiny views of this year’s Annual Budget proposals. 1.
The
Panel welcomed the increase in the budget provision for schools for the next
year but noted that the funding is heavily weighted to year 1 2022/23. We share the departments concerns in relation
to the clarity of funding for schools in years 2 and 3. 2.
The
Panel heard that individual school reserves are currently at a high level. We did recognise that this is a positive
thing given the challenges coming in years 2 and 3, but we agreed that this
means the schools must be encouraged to have good medium term spending plans,
in order for this to been used effectively. 3.
The
Panel did have concerns regarding the potentially inadequate funding from Welsh
Government for: a.
Phased
roll out of Free School Meal provision to all primary pupils b.
The
emerging implications of the Additional Learning Needs Act. 4.
The
Panel raised concerns about the potential change to the proxy measure that is
based upon Free School Meal allocation which is the indicator used for extra
funding in schools for vulnerable pupils like, for example, the allocation of
the Pupil Development Grant and the School Uniform Grant. The Panel would be keen to see how this will
be addressed in upcoming policy changes from Welsh Government, so vulnerable
children do not lose out. 5.
The
Panel were concerned about the rising energy costs for schools and would like
to see schools switching to more green solutions, where it is feasible. 6.
The
Panel welcomed the high level of delegated spend that has been maintained by
Swansea Council. Hearing that this
coming year will be 83% and will increase to 85% in 2024/25. |
