Issue - meetings

The Annual Report was presented to the meeting. There was concern about the table of A-level results and it was proposed that this be deleted, pending the provision of further data from Children’s Services.

Textual amendments were also made, including the replacement of the phrase ‘Headquarters’ with ‘centre’ to refer to the Salvation Army Centre in Wood Green.

Rev. Allaway pointed out that the Baptist and Pentecostal movements were not referred to as ‘churches’ due to the different structure of those groups from the Church of England and the Roman Catholic Church.

There was discussion about attendance at meetings. There was concern that a number of representatives on SACRE had not attended any meetings in the last academic year. It was agreed that the Clerk should write to them to ask if they still wished to be members of SACRE and, if they did not, to ask them if there was anybody else from their denomination who wished to serve as a member of SACRE.

RESOLVED:

That the annual report, as amended, be submitted to the QCA
