Wandsworth: School budget shortfall, NHS updates, polling place change

This week in Wandsworth:

Schools Forum Grapples with Budget Pressures and SEN Support

The Wandsworth Schools Forum convened to tackle critical issues, including a looming budget overspend, enhanced support for reception-aged children, and updates on special educational needs (SEN) projects. Read the full meeting details here.

High Needs Budget Faces £10 Million Overspend

  • The Stakes: The High Needs Budget (HNB), which funds education for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), is facing a significant overspend, creating immediate budget pressures. This could mean reduced services and support for vulnerable students.
  • Funding Shortfall: Despite a 5.9% increase in the HNB, the £70.572 million allocation falls short of covering the £10.314 million overspend from the previous year.
  • Continued Investments: Funding for mainstream therapies, the SEN Support Fund, and social work in schools will continue, providing essential support for students with additional needs.
  • Increase in Special School Places: As part of the Dedicated Schools Grant (DSG) recovery plan, there will be an increase in places at Paddock School and Nightingale Community Academy, as well as an expansion of the Granard Primary School Resource Base.

Enhanced Reception Support Project Aims to Reduce EHCP Assessments

  • The Stakes: The Wandsworth Schools Forum agreed to run a pilot project to provide an enhanced package of support in the Reception year to a targeted group of 20 children. The project aims to alleviate transition anxiety for parents and carers, build staff confidence in meeting identified needs, remove barriers for children with additional needs to attend mainstream school, enable pupils to attend school full time, and avoid the need for Education, Health and Care (EHC) needs assessments.
  • Targeted Support: Children will be selected from those whose EHCNA requests were No to Assess but went to mediation or tribunal, as well as children new to the borough or entering Reception without prior nursery education.
  • Cost Avoidance: The project aims to support at least 75% of pupils at SEN support by the end of Reception, avoiding the need for an EHCNA. It is estimated that the project could avoid the need for 15 EHCPs, representing an annual cost avoidance of £180,000.

SEN Support Fund and Enhanced Transition Project Update

  • The Stakes: The Wandsworth Schools Forum received an update on the impact of the investment set aside for Special Educational Needs (SEN) Support projects and the Enhanced Transition Project (ETP). The report outlined the training provided during the 2024-25 financial year and plans for expenditure in 2025-26.
  • Positive Impact: The report highlighted the positive impact of the AME (Autonomy, Motivation and Engagement) Coaching project, with delegates reporting significant changes in their interactions with students.
  • Cost Avoidance: The Enhanced Transition Project (ETP) has also demonstrated success, with only one pupil involved in the project requiring an EHCP and 100% of pupils being well supported at secondary school. The ETP has led to a significant reduction in EHC assessment requests in Year 6, with an estimated cost avoidance of £230,000 per annum.
  • ADHD Ambassador Programme: A new project, the ADHD Ambassador Programme, was commissioned in response to feedback from headteachers and Special Educational Needs Co-ordinators (SENCo) that there is a gap in support for pupils with this need.

Health Committee Discusses NHS Performance, Mental Health, and More

The Health Committee convened to discuss a range of critical health issues, including updates from local NHS trusts, integrated care developments, CCTV strategy, and sexual and reproductive health initiatives. Read the full meeting details here.

NHS Trust Performance Updates

  • St George's Trust: The committee received updates on operational performance, including emergency care, winter pressures, and elective care recovery.
  • South West London & St George's Mental Health Trust (SWLSTG): The committee discussed mental health service delivery and community programmes, including the Coral Mental Health Crisis Hub and the Ethnicity and Mental Health Improvement Project (EMHIP).

Integrated Care Developments

  • Integrated Neighbourhoods: The committee discussed the progress of integrated neighbourhood working, which aims to provide local system leadership for health and care services. The first phase is scheduled to launch on 1 April 2025 in Battersea, Roehampton and Tooting.

CCTV Strategy

  • Surveillance Network: The committee discussed the Wandsworth CCTV Strategy 2024-2029, which outlines the council's plan for managing its network of 1,290 CCTV cameras.

Sexual and Reproductive Health Strategy

  • Five-Year Plan: The committee discussed the Wandsworth Sexual and Reproductive Health Strategy 2025-2030, a five-year plan to improve sexual and reproductive health outcomes, focusing on addressing health inequities and ensuring equitable access to services, particularly for vulnerable groups.

Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework Annual Report

  • Performance Review: The committee received an update on the 2023-24 Adult Social Care Outcomes Framework (ASCOF) annual performance, noting that Wandsworth's performance is very good compared to other London boroughs.

Budget Monitoring and Review of Charges

  • Financial Pressures: The committee discussed the 2024/25 Q3 budget monitoring and 2025/26 budget, noting a projected overspend of £2.685 million, mainly due to increased demand and costs in Adult Social Care.
  • Fee Increase: The committee proposed to increase Adult Social Care Services fees by 2.2% from 1 April 2025.
  • Councillor Marshall: While there's been very good progress on the elective surgery waiting list, we've been inducted to my colleague to point out that three wards have had to be closed due to norovirus, and I'm just wondering what the knock-on effect of that has been generally, but particularly on the waiting list for elective surgeries.
  • Councillor Crivelli: You've said on page 8, paragraph 3, sorry, that you've talked about the consultant-led elective treatment waiting time remains a priority for the Trust. And you have said that you are performing better than your peer average. Obviously, that's commendable. But you pointed out there's 31 patients waiting 65 weeks or longer, and 858 patients waiting 52 weeks longer. I appreciate if you were one of these patients that was waiting that length of time. Obviously, the fact that the peer average doesn't mean anything to them. And I was just – you say we do have a detailed plan to mitigate the growth of that. I was wondering, out of curiosity, is there some particular form of treatment that makes up the bulk of these patients, or is it just scattered all over? Is there one particular thing that you need to focus on as a Trust to address these waiting times?
  • Councillor Gussain: The Trust reports a 14.3 million deficit. I mean, the information is probably available elsewhere, but there's no breakdown in the report about how that deficit came about. There's mention of a review by Deloitte. Would you be able to say what structural financial issues were identified by that report and how much additional public funding may have been allocated to cover deficits? And there's mention of a cost improvement program. Are you able to tell us how much cost cutting has been achieved and, if so, what the impact on patient care is?
  • Councillor Horrell: St. George's often gets a bad rap in terms of the press. And I recently, in fact, this weekend had an MRI at St. George's. The waiting time was about three, just under three and a half weeks from referral to actually getting the test done and an excellent service. So, it's nice to have some good stories around St. George's. And a big thank you to your staff in terms of the quality of care that was actually delivered. And I would be grateful if you could feed that back to the MRI unit, how pleased I was from the moment of contact all the way through. So, it was great to see a coherent pathway in place and a really good pathway. So, a big thank you for that.

Wandsworth: Putney Congestion, Rider Safety, Violence Against Women

This week in Wandsworth:

Putney Congestion Fixes Remain Elusive as Council Reviews Junction Changes

Residents are still facing congestion around Putney Bridge despite changes made to the junction with Lower Richmond Road and Putney High Street. The Transport Overview and Scrutiny Committee met to discuss the ongoing issues, which have disproportionately impacted those relying on public transport and local businesses. Read the full meeting details here.

  • The Stakes: Traffic congestion impacts air quality, commute times, and the economic vitality of Putney.
  • AECOM Review: An AECOM review found that the signal timings implemented did not match the original proposal approved by Transport for London (TfL).
  • Traffic Volume: The review also found a significant increase in cyclists and pedestrians using the junction since July 2021, when the data used to model the junction changes was collected.
  • Creeping Loss of Hip to Gable : During a discussion of planning application 93 Wakehurst Road at the Planning Applications Committee, Councillor Govindia noted, in effect, that there has already been a creeping loss of hip to gable. And I just wonder what do we do to actually arrest that creeping loss of that distinctive bit of... Every justification to allow one to fall means that the creep carries on. I just don't think we're being firm enough in resisting that effectively filling in that bit of the sky.
  • No Going Back: The committee heard that reverting to the old junction layout is not an option, as it would not meet current design standards and safety requirements set by TfL.
  • Ongoing Efforts: The council has implemented several changes, including updated lane layouts, extended bus lane hours, and amended signal timings, but congestion persists.
  • Wider Factors: The report pack noted that various factors were influencing the traffic congestion in Putney, aside from the junction changes. These included the ongoing closure of Hammersmith Bridge, the Clean Air Neighbourhood changes north of Wandsworth Bridge, and road and street works in and outside of the borough causing traffic displacement to the Putney area.

Wandsworth Council flags housing & data concerns, risk strategy overhaul

This week in Wandsworth:

Audit Committee Flags Housing Regulator Weakness and Data Concerns

The Wandsworth Council Audit Committee convened this week, focusing on governance, risk management, and fraud prevention. A key discussion point was the external audit report, which highlighted a significant weakness related to a previous Housing Regulator C3 report1 and ongoing concerns about data quality. You can read the full transcript here.

  • The Stakes: These issues could impact the council's reputation, financial stability, and ability to effectively manage its housing stock.
  • Housing Regulator's Report: Ben Lazarus from Ernst & Young (EY), the external auditor, stated that the timing of the Housing Regulator's C3 report, which concluded in February 2025, made it necessary to raise a significant weakness in value for money. He said, It's kind of my obligation to make a commentary on the arrangements that were in place during that financial period.
  • Data Quality Concerns: Lazarus also raised concerns about the Housing Revenue Account (HRA) valuation, stating that the data provided made it difficult to determine if transactions were recorded in the correct year. He said, We have got a relatively fundamental point that says the data that you are providing us makes it really difficult for us to get comfortable that the transactions are being recorded in the right year across two or three years.
  • Council Response: Catherine Burstyn, Director of Financial Management, acknowledged the concerns and stated that the council was working to address them. She said, I think our relationship has improved in this audit. So I think it's been generally moving in the right direction, as Ben has noted.
  • Sector-Wide Challenges: Councillor Annamarie Critchard noted that challenges in obtaining unqualified audit opinions are not unique to Wandsworth, but are a sector-wide issue. Lazarus confirmed this, stating that there had been a sector-wide reset of audit in the sector.
  • Fleet Vehicle Policy Delays: Councillor Mrs. Kim Caddy questioned why a single policy on fleet management was still under review by HR and the legal team. Andrew Hamilton, Head of the Shared Audit Service, explained that the final report was issued in June 2025, and the recommendations are in progress.

Risk Management Strategy Gets an Overhaul

The Audit Committee also discussed an updated approach to risk management, aiming to improve evidence and oversight of risk mitigation at all levels of the council. You can read the full transcript here.

  • The Stakes: A robust risk management strategy is crucial for protecting council assets, ensuring service delivery, and maintaining public trust.
  • Bottom-Up Approach: Paul Giulioti, Director of Financial Services, explained that the new approach would involve four reports going to the directors board, feeding in from divisional directors and executive directors, to show how risks are being managed at each level.
  • Digital Platform: The council is working with the IT team to develop a digital platform for risk management, which will allow for better tracking and reporting of risks.
  • Member Engagement: The updated strategy aims to strengthen member engagement by providing more frequent and detailed information on risk management.

Fraud Prevention Efforts Highlighted

The Audit Committee received a fraud update for 2025/26, presented by the Head of Fraud. You can read the full transcript here.

  • The Stakes: Effective fraud prevention is essential for protecting public funds and ensuring that resources are used for their intended purpose.
  • Southwest London Fraud Partnership: Councillor Critchard asked about an audit on the Southwest London Fraud Partnership. Kevin Holland, Assistant Director of Fraud Risk, explained that the audit found the partnership's procedures satisfactory and made recommendations for updating the partnership agreement.

This week in Wandsworth:

Bradstow School Closure Approved Amidst Heartbreak and Financial Realities

  • Financial Crisis: The school faces an accumulated deficit of close to £1 million, on top of £4.9 million of debt from previous years that other councils are refusing to pay.
  • Councillor Gasser's Regret: Councillor Judi Gasser, Cabinet Member for Children, expressed her sadness at having to present the recommendation, acknowledging the tireless efforts of the school community. She stated that the decision was made because the council wants to keep as many children as possible in mainstream or local specialist provision.
  • School's Plea: Polly Benton, the school business manager, addressed the committee, highlighting the school's importance to vulnerable children and families, and urging the council to allow more time for academisation with the Bridge Academy Trust. She stated that the school would be financially viable if it had been allowed to take pupils this year.
  • Legal Action for Debt Recovery: Councillor Henderson described the £4.2 million debt owed by Kent County Council as outrageous and asked about plans to recover the debt. Councillor Gasser responded that legal proceedings were being pursued to recover the money.
  • Support for Staff: Councillor Dikerdem raised concerns about the impact on the school's workforce and asked what support would be provided. Councillor Gasser confirmed that a recruitment consultant and the council's HR team would assist staff in finding new jobs.

Wandsworth Town Station Set for £20 Million Upgrade

The Cabinet supported a £20 million investment package for Wandsworth Town Station, including a second entrance and new lifts, a move that promises to improve accessibility and ease congestion. You can read the full details here.

  • The Stakes: The improvements will benefit commuters, particularly those with mobility issues, and support the growing residential population in the area.
  • Funding Sources: The funding will come from the Department for Transport's Access for All programme, contingent on a contribution from the council using development contributions from property developers.

  • £250,000 Fund: A total of £250,000 is available for distribution, including £50,000 for capacity building support.
  • Priorities: The fund prioritizes community spaces and food projects, as well as core programme costs for organisations struggling with increased demand due to inflationary pressures.
  • Successful Applicants: Grants were recommended for organisations such as Age UK Wandsworth, Carney's Community, Earlsfield Foodbank, and Katherine Low Settlement, among others.
  • Sound Minds Reconsidered: The committee initially declined to fund Sound Minds, but then voted to grant the application and monitor it very closely and possibly support the organization in terms of helping them understand monitoring processes and helping them with future applications to understand the process with the writing.

Other Matters

  • The Cabinet approved the annual review of fees and charges, with most fees increasing by the rate of inflation. However, parking charges will be frozen for the coming year, recognizing the challenges people face with the cost of living.
  • The Cabinet received a progress update on the Clapham Junction Urban Heart Masterplan, which aims to create a strategic approach to development and growth in the area.

  • The Cabinet received an update on the Housing Revenue Account (HRA) business plan, which outlines the long-term strategic and financial planning for council housing.
