Mandatory Newcomer Designation Pro-Forma

Identification and subsequent designation of a child as a newcomer pupil attracts additional funding through the Common Funding Scheme. To assist Audit in giving assurance of the system of controls in place, a new form  has been developed for completion and retention by schools from the start of the incoming academic year 2010/11.

It will also serve to act as a history of the child, as a newcomer, should they move between schools and therefore must be transferred with the appropriate records to the receiving school.
