Response by the Cabinet Member: As you state, Cabinet recently approved a new Strategic Outline Programme (SOP) for the Welsh Government’s Sustainable Communities for Learning Programme, which outlines our ambition to transform education across Powys, and supports our Strategy for Transforming Education 2022-2032. The SOP has now been submitted to the Welsh Government for their assessment, which we hope to receive soon. Our preferred option stated in the SOP is that the Programme delivers projects: · currently in design stage and any school with condition D categorisation · projects that will deliver the aspirations of the WESP · supports further reorganisation of primary, secondary and post-16 provision as required, in line with the outcomes of Wave 2 and 3 of the Transforming Education Programme. I am fully aware of the building condition issues at Gwernyfed High School and also the works that have happened over the last few years. However, I’m also very aware that there continues to be significant issues to be addressed . Officers are currently drafting a report for CLT and Cabinet’s consideration which outline the works required and the estimated cost. The appropriate funding route will be agreed following this.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
Declarations are read from the minutes once they are published.
