WYEBRIDGE SPORTS COLLEGE DETERMINATION OF STATUTORY NOTICES
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
To determine the public notices to close Wyebridge Sports College in order to enable the opening of the new Wyebridge Academy.
Decision:
That the closure of Wyebridge Sports College on 31 August 2008 be approved.
Reasons for the decision:
To make progress with the academy project the Local Authority must first approve the closure of Wyebridge Sports College, which occupies the site of the proposed Academy.
Alternative options considered:
The Local Authority could determine that Wyebridge Sports College remains open, thereby withdrawing its support for the academy proposal as a whole. This would jeopardise the very real achievement that Wyebridge Sports College has made in recent years and leave the future of high school provision in the South Wye area uncertain.
