NOTICES OF MOTION

6.1

Notice of Motion - Councillor McLeod

That Committee:-

1.       notes the number of privately educated children at independent schools in Aberdeen. The latest estimate is approximately 2530;

2.       notes the number of state secondary schools in Aberdeen that are at full capacity is 2;

3.       notes the number of state secondary schools in Aberdeen at 90 – 100% capacity is 4;

4.       notes the policy of the UK Labour government to apply VAT on private school fees;

5.       notes the report from the Institute of Fiscal Studies that, as a result of this, between 3% and 7% of privately educated children may be forced to leave and look for places in state schools.  If this figure is correct then that equates to between 75 and 175 pupils looking to be placed in Aberdeen schools; and

6.       instructs the Executive Director Families and Communities to bring back a report within one cycle about any arrangements regarding these placements and an analysis of the impact of this Labour policy.
