The Children and Young People Overview and Scrutiny Sub-Committee of East Riding of Yorkshire Council is scheduled to meet on Wednesday 14 October 2026. The agenda includes a review of Ofsted inspection reports for several local schools, an update on the work of the Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE), and a discussion on the Sub-Committee's work programme.

Ofsted Inspection Reports

A significant portion of the meeting is scheduled to focus on Ofsted inspection reports for East Riding of Yorkshire schools. This includes specific discussions on the reports for Beverley Grammar School and Aldbrough Primary School. The Sub-Committee will also consider the Summer 2026 batch of Ofsted Inspection Reports and Ofsted Outcomes for East Riding Schools. These reports will provide insights into the performance and standards of various educational institutions within the region. The agenda indicates that headteachers and chairs of governors from the schools concerned have been invited to attend to discuss the findings and any resulting action plans.

Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE)

The meeting will also feature a report on the work of the East Riding of Yorkshire Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE) for the academic year 2025-26. This report aims to inform members about SACRE's activities in supporting schools to deliver high-quality Religious Education (RE) and navigate national changes in the subject. Key areas of focus for SACRE include the development of a new Locally Agreed Syllabus (LAS), teacher training, and supporting educational visits to places of worship. The report will also touch upon the statutory requirement for RE to be taught to all pupils from age 5 to 18.
