Minutes:
Members noted the minutes of the meetings of the Quality and Standards Sub-group which had taken place on 9 March and 17 May 2011.
The meeting of the 9 March had dealt with the issue of future support for the SACRE and ASC in the form of dialogue between members and Jonathan Hewitt, Head of Quality and Continuous Improvement.
The meeting of 17 May had reviewed the SACRE membership and attendance at meetings which had generally been found to be good and had also included consideration and updating the SACRE Development Plan 2011/13. The columns in the Development Plan: 'Costing' and 'People' had been left blank until personnel and costing implications were known.
Members were then asked to divide into groups to consider four priorities of the Development Plan, excluding Priority 4: Collective Worship, as the organisation RE Today Services would have completed an update of the Collective Worship CD 'Mirrors and Doors' by the end of the Summer Term 2011.
Members were asked to consider whether each area remained appropriate, to suggest any changes and to report back their findings both orally to the meeting and in writing. Groups reported back and commented as follows:
Priority 1: Standards and Quality of Provision of RE
Priority 2: Management of Lancashire SACRE and Partnership with the LA and other Key Stakeholders
Priority 3: The Effectiveness of the Lancashire Agreed Syllabus for RE
Priority 5: Contribution of SACRE to the Social and Racial Harmony Agenda
RESOLVED: That the Development Plan be updated with regard to members' comments
