To receive the above report.

Clive Haines, Schools Leadership Development Manager stated 90 Pupil Premium (PP) children attended the summer camp over three days. Table one showed the schools attended and the numbers of possible children as well as the number of actual children that attended.

The summer camp consisted of sports activities over three days but, not in the style of PE lessons the activities were focused on fun.

The summer camp was run by a company called Sports Partnership and included sixth formers to engage with the children. Parent were also invited to attend an awards ceremony every day. On the last day of the summer camp, the children performed a street dance and it was very emotional for parents.

The Schools Leadership Development Manager received some great feedback from the children and the general consensus was that they wished the summer camp ran for longer. He added he would like to run the summer camps again next year in 2019.

Councillor Jones stated there was no Windsor summer camp last year in 2017 so she was really pleased with the scheme this year. The Schools Leadership Development Manager stated he would like to include Ascot next year. The Chairman said that publicly and in the press the camp had deliberately not been presented as a camp specifically for PP children, so as to remove barriers to children's attendance, focusing instead on building confidence and skills. She added she went to see it and felt it was a very good programme. The Chairman wanted more children in the Borough to be included.

The Schools Leadership Development Manager said the venue and facilities would be big enough but, he might struggle with transport. He added the camp were also about transitioning children and buddying children going up to the same secondary school.

The Chairman noted that if the camp had a bigger uptake of eligible pupils and around 250 children were to attend the summer camps, it would cost in the region of £24,000, and asked whether there was sufficient budget for a much bigger uptake. Councillor Jones said some Councillors gave some of their Members Budgets towards the summer camp. The Chairman said it was nice that children were paired up into the schools they were moving on up to. The Schools Leadership Development Manager said it was about transitioning children moving up to the next school, it was also about disadvantaged children who might not get the opportunity to take part in summer activities. The Chairman said the Schools Leadership Development Manager needed to start sending letters out asking organisations to donate to help fund the camp It was a positive news story with some children being signed up to the summer camp by their schools but, some children did not attend so there needed to be a mechanism in place to prevent children missing out. The Schools Leadership Development Manager confirmed he would email Members of the forum regarding fundraising for next year’s summer camp project.
