We asked
We asked for your comments on the proposal to remove boarding provision at Lindsworth School.
You said
91 people responded to the consultation and 82 of those people provided written comments. The comments show the importance that stakeholders place on the work done by the school and particularly the current extended-day (after-school) provision and concern that this would be impacted by the removal of boarding.
We did
We reviewed and collated all of the comments received. We shared with the decision maker for their consideration:
- a summary of the consultation results
- a collated copy of all comments, unalterred
(all personal data and informaiton is removed from comments before sharing).
We asked
How Birmingham can develop a distinctive, inclusive and sustainable Music Visitor Experience grounded in the city’s globally significant musical heritage and contemporary live music ecosystem.
You said
The combined evidence from the roundtables and public survey presents a clear and consistent picture. Birmingham is not an emerging music city. It is an established one.
We did
Not recommend a single delivery route. Instead, a series of options and considerations that reflect the conditions identified through the research. A phased approach is likely to be the most appropriate. Early interventions focused on communication, coordination, and experiences can build confidence and generate evidence. More capital-intensive decisions can then be taken on the basis of demonstrated demand and operational learning
