Issue - meetings

Neil Buxton informed the committee of the schools’ applications to become academy trusts, if the schools are not converted by June then they must resubmit their application. He added that Heartwood CofE MAT is being transferred to the Birmingham Diocese; therefore, any liabilities will be transferred to them at no risk to the Pension Board.

The committee was informed that as it is still a Warwickshire school it will still be administered by the Pension Board.

Resolved:

That the Staff and Pensions Committee delegates authority to the Strategic Director for Resources to approve applications from schools converting to academy status, subject to the applications meeting the criteria:

Kingsway Primary School (Community Academy Trust; 1 April 2020)

Lillington Primary School (Finham Park MAT; 1 April 2020)

Wootton Wawen Primary School (Arden Forest MAT; 1 April 2020)

Henley Primary Academy (Arden Forest MAT; 1 April 2020)
