London Borough of Redbridge
Redbridge Council is implementing a strategy to use spare school capacity for special educational needs, addressing falling pupil numbers and rising demand for specialist support.
The London Borough of Redbridge is implementing a School Organisation Strategy for 2026-2031 to address changing pupil needs. This strategy, discussed in November 2026, aims to repurpose spare school space for children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND), balancing declining mainstream school places with a significant rise in demand for specialist support.
In October 2026, the council's Licensing Sub-Committee considered Temporary Event Notices for premises such as Khaba. Earlier, in July 2026, the Shareholder Reference Group reviewed the operational and financial performance of Redbridge Civic Services Ltd. The General Purposes Committee also discussed an updated Social Media Policy for the council in April 2026.
