Brexit and schools

1.Any correspondence between the Council and the food and medical suppliers who they liaise with on the behalf of schools which refers to plans in the event of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit.

We do not hold any information in relation to correspondence between the Council and the food and medical suppliers who they liaise with on the behalf of schools which refers to plans in the event of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit.

a. If this is not possible, particular focus should be paid to correspondence regarding the Business Continuity Plan (or equivalent document explaining how supply will be impacted by threats) of the relevant supplier in the event of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit.

2. Any guidance issued by the council to schools regarding preparations in the event of a ‘no deal’ Brexit between January 1st 2019 and July 31st 2019.
If the search for this request requires further refining, the term ‘schools’ may be more narrowly defined as any local-authority-maintained school.

The Council’s guidance to schools regarding preparations for Brexit is published online. 

An email was sent to all schools in February 2019 signposting to the following:

EU exit: no deal preparations for schools in England 

EU exit: no deal preparations for further education and apprenticeship providers
