To receive and consider the 2020/21 Contingency update report.

Katherine Vernon, Schools Finance Manager presented the 2020/21 Contingency Update report.

Katherine Vernon stated that there had been no applications nor allocations made in the current financial year in respect of the de-delegated allocation that was approved by Schools Forum at its meeting on 18 December 2019.

Ian Morgan stated that it had been agreed that the Early Years Contingency update would be included in the report.

Katherine Vernon stated that it was easier to report Early Years Contingency at the end of the three terms, with the census information.  Therefore this would be included in the March report.

The Chairman asked that a line about Early Years Contingency be included in future reports, with the explanation that a detailed report would always be produced for the March meeting.

RESOLVED That:

1)     The report be noted; and

2)      Early Years Contingency would be included in future reports.
