As the school to which the Deputy refers is not due to commence operation until September 2016, start-up accommodation for it has not yet been secured. Subject to the availability of appropriate start-up accommodation, it is intended to locate the school within the feeder area it is being set up to serve.

The details supplied by the Deputy suggest that patronage for the school has already been awarded to a particular patron body. This is not the case. As a first step to establish the school, an open patronage determination process will be run later this year to decide which patron body will operate the school.
