Schools Forum
Schools Forum
The LASGB has one delegate with ‘Observer’ status at all ‘Lancashire Schools Forum’ meetings.
There are also several (20+) elected governors representing Primary, Secondary, Academy, Special and Short Stay Schools. The majority of these are also members of the LASGB.
‘Fair Exchange’ is the name given to the regular ‘magazine’ update produced and sent out by the LCC for Schools’ Forum.
Please click on the link below to go to the Schools Forum website for a full list of members, dates of future meetings and agendas/minutes of meetings, etc.
Schools’ National Funding Formula
As governors we are inundated with information about the new schools’ national funding formula.
All kinds of statistics about how much is being spent and how the pie will be divided.
Changes to national insurance payments, the apprenticeship levy, pension and a number of other cost pressures are squeezing school budgets and eating into reserves.
A number of education organisations are running campaigns to get people to write to their MP’s about these pressures.
Download here a copy of the letter sent by the Lancashire Schools' Forum to Lancashire MP’s.
The LASGB would ask that you consider the letter’s contents and that you consider writing to your MP. We also ask that your support staff and parents if they feel they wish to make representations.
