SIGNIFICANT INCREASE IN PUPIL NUMBERS DUE TO INCREASE IN LOCAL POPULATION
Norfolk County Council’s Section 52 Budget Statements, Part 3, states that:
"Schools will be compensated for significant increases in pupil numbers during the Spring and Summer Terms where an increase in the numbers on roll is in excess of 5% between the number of pupils recorded on the January 2001 Form 7 and the average number of pupils at the end of the Spring Term and end of the Summer Term."
What is a significant increase?
Where the numbers on roll at the end of both the Spring and Summer Terms are in excess of 5% of the January 2001 Form 7 figures.
How can I check if my school qualifies?
i.e. (NOR at the end of Spring Term + NOR at the end of Summer Term)
¸ 2.2. Calculate 105% of January 2001 Form 7 numbers, i.e. Jan Form 7 numbers x 1.05.
