The January 2012 figures show an overall increasing trend in the numbers of<br />
Early Years children from 3-4 years to 0-1 years. This indicates that the number<br />
of reception year pupils will continue to rise at least until 2014/15.<br />
As a result of these rising birth rates coupled with net inward migration <strong>and</strong> new<br />
housebuilding in Area 3, it is forecast that there will be a shortfall of approximately<br />
10 reception places in September 2014.<br />
Latest forecasts indicate that a further form of entry is required at <strong>Clifford</strong> <strong>Bridge</strong> in<br />
response to rising numbers. These places would be additional to the extra 60<br />
Reception places already created in this area since 2008.<br />
