North Lanarkshire Council Report Education, Children and Families Committee Does this report require to be approved? ☐ Yes ☒ No Ref: DB / TO’H Date 22/11/22 Revenue Budget Monitoring Report From Derek Brown / Thomas O’Hagan E-mail BrownD@northlan.gov.uk Telephone 01698 302 517 Executive Summary This report provides a summary of the financial performance of the Education, Children and Families Service for the period 1 April 2022 to 16 September 2022 (Period 6). The report illustrates the projected outturn position as at 31 March 2023, with major outturn variances highlighted and explained per North Lanarkshire Council’s approved Financial Regulations. The Education, Children and Families Service has a Net Revenue Budget of £461.467m for the 2022/23 financial year. Incorporated within the Revenue Budget are approved savings totalling £6.830m. It is anticipated that £3.969m (58.11%) of these savings will be realised during the current financial year. The Service is currently forecasting a net overspend of £5.144m to the end of the financial year. The overspend primarily reflects in-year contractual inflation uplifts. Recommendations It is recommended that the Education, Children and Families Committee: (1) Review the financial position of the Education, Children and Families revenue budget. (2) Review the contents of the report. The Plan for North Lanarkshire Priority All priorities Ambition statement (25) Ensure intelligent use of data and information to support fully evidence based decision making and future planning

1. Background 1.1 North Lanarkshire Council’s approved Financial Regulations require Deputy Chief Executives and Heads of Service to remain within their approved budgetary provision, and to report all significant deviations - defined as the higher of £100,000 or 5% - within their budget monitoring reports. Where significant deviations are identified, officers must provide explanatory commentary, outline the action required to rectify such deviations and where relevant, must also highlight the impact this has on other budget headings. 2. Report 2.1 Summary of Financial Position 2.1.1 North Lanarkshire Council approved its General Fund Revenue Budget on 17 February 2022 of which £465.120m (52.4%) represented the approved Net Revenue Budget for Education, Children and Families. During 2022/23 there has been a net budget reduction of £3.653m to £461.467m following the realignment of staff groups to the Chief Executives Service including the Administrative & Finance Assistant (AFA) team and Technicians Service. 2.1.2 The Service is forecasting a net overspend of £5.144m to the end of the financial year. Further analysis of major variances is provided within Section 2.2 of this report. 2.1.3 Included within the net overspend position are significant, in-year, inflationary cost pressures. There are material inflationary pressures linked to increases in utility costs across the Service’s educational and Active & Creative Communities estate (£4.854m), coupled with further increases to mainstream and ASN pupil transport contracts (£3.092m). As part of the Council’s financial planning process, resources were previously earmarked following the closure of the 2021/22 annual accounts to help offset the projected inflationary pressures faced by Services during the current financial year. The consolidated position summarising in-year inflationary pressures and funding across each Service will be presented in the Council’s summary budget monitoring report. 2.1.4 The current 2022/23 budget incorporates £6.830m of savings previously approved by the Council on 17 February 2022. Further information regarding particularly challenging savings, along with associated management actions and replacement in- year savings, are included within this report at Appendix 5. 2.2 Analysis of Significant Variations 2.2.1 The Service has a total employee budget of £372.489m and currently anticipates a projected underspend of £4.855m. The underspend reflects actual and projected vacancies, coupled with the roll out of confirmed HQ and cluster staffing structures. 2.2.2 Service employee budgets are partly devolved to establishments per the Devolved School Management (DSM) scheme, with the remaining budgets held at HQ level. 2.2.3 Under the DSM scheme devolved staffing budgets for teaching and non-teaching posts are delegated to Head Teacher management. Establishments receive allocations on the basis of agreed formulas and individual pupil needs. Devolved staffing budgets for financial year 2022/23 are £206.614m.

2.2.4 The Service is anticipating an overspend of £5.608m within Property Costs predominantly as a result of increased costs in relation to utilities/energy (£5.171m) along with other minor overspends across the Service (£0.437m). 2.2.5 The Service is anticipating an underspend of £1.554m within Supplies & Services primarily due to synergies with external funding, management action and the curtailment of non-essential expenditure within Cluster/HQ support (£1.154m) and Active and Creative Communities (£0.400m). 2.2.6 The Service is anticipating an overspend of £5.394m within Transport and Plant which reflects ongoing demand pressures within ASN transport (£2.703m) and increases to mainstream transport contract rates (£2.674m) along with minor overspends across the Service (£0.017m). 2.2.7 The Service is anticipating an underspend of £0.370m within Administration Costs primarily due to management action and the curtailment of non-essential expenditure. 2.2.8 The Service is anticipating an overspend of £1.126m within Payments to Other Bodies primarily in relation to external placements within ASN service provision (£0.743m) and Family Fostering and Kinship awards (£0.303m) along with other minor overspends across the Service (£0.080m). 2.2.9 The Service is anticipating an underspend of £1.988m within Other Expenditure primarily due to synergies with external funding, management action and the curtailment of non-essential expenditure within Cluster/HQ support (£2.015m) partially offset by minor overspends within other Service areas (£0.027m). 2.2.10 The Service is anticipating an under recovery of income of £1.784m in relation to membership and visitors fees for Active and Creative Communities (£1.697m) and fewer cross-boundary ASN placements within NLC (£0.366m), partially offset by minor over recoveries across the Service (£0.279m). 2.3 Earmarked and One-off Resources 2.3.1 In finalising North Lanarkshire Council’s annual accounts to 31 March 2022, the Education, Children and Families Service was given approval to earmark £104.810m of resources represented by £85.527m (Non-Covid) and £19.282m (Covid) to fund key projects and initiatives. Most of this reserve (£54.175m) is earmarked for existing school building contractual commitments. Other specific reserves include Pupil Equity Fund (PEF) carry forwards, Devolved School Management (DSM) carry forwards, and ring-fenced 1140 Hours grant. Future monitoring reports will provide updates on use of these reserves during 2022/23 as outlined in Appendix 4. 2.4 2022/23 Budget Savings and Growth 2.4.1 The Council previously approved total savings of £16.484m during 2022/23. The initial Education, Children and Families Service savings target for 2022/23 was £6.830m. The Service uses a variety of information, records, and processes to monitor achievement of its approved budget savings. As at Period 6, it is anticipated that £3.969m (58.11%) of the approved savings target will be realised in the current financial year (Appendix 5). 2.4.2 The unachieved savings of £2.861m have predominantly arisen due to temporary operational timing delays, the phased introduction of new staffing structures, consideration of the school academic calendar, and impact of Covid-19. In year management action has been taken to address this savings gap during 2022/23 with savings expected to be fully achieved during future financial years.

2.4.3 As part of the Council’s approved General Fund Revenue Budget for 2022/23, the Education, Children & Families Service were allocated £3.470m (Appendix 6) towards several one-off investments. Future monitoring reports will provide updates on use of these one-off investment allocations during 2022/23. 2.5 Management Action 2.5.1 Management will continue to review and implement actions through to financial year end with the aim of minimising the Service the projected overspend position. These actions will include:- a) Vacancy management. b) Creating efficiencies through use of grant/external funding. c) Curtailment of non-essential expenditure. d) Application of earmarked reserves to offset one-off cost pressures. 3.
