The Chair of Overview and Scrutiny has agreed that the decision is both reasonable in all the circumstances and that it should be treated as a matter of urgency as any delay would seriously prejudice the Council's interests in the delivery of education. The provision of adequate temporary teaching facilities will enable the Council to meet its statutory obligation by minimising partial closure periods, providing education in a safe and appropriate environment, and securing the best possible outcome for students. Accordingly, the Chair of Overview and Scrutiny Committee has agreed that the decision sought is both reasonable in all circumstances and should be treated as a matter of urgency. This is in accordance with Part Four, Section H Rule 18 (a) and 18 (b) of the Council’s Constitution.
