28 March (Part 1) - Children Scrutinised
The meeing held on 24th March and Chaired by Councillor Lisa Moore discussed
the Holiday Activities and Food (HAF) provided to children in the borough and
the visit of the SEND Monitoring Unit. I was found very little which I
considered to be of widespread interest.
HAF is funded by central government, about £800,000 each year which goes to
Bexley children in receipt of Free School Meals and some others from families
deemed to be vulnerable.
Unfortunately the SEND report had been embargoed by the Department for Education until after the election.
