A. True; True AND the reason explains the assertion

A. True; True AND the reason explains the assertion

It is appropriate to record the number of secondary schools in Pittville with further education units as a business need because it reflects the current educational infrastructure that the project aims to enhance. However, the reason given, related to explaining how services are currently organized, does not directly justify why this is a business need.

The inclusion of the 'Development of 14-19-year-olds learning provision in Pittville' within the Business scope is appropriate because it directly relates to what the project aims to achieve. However, the reason that the business scope sets out theboundaries of the project does not explain this assertion, as the assertion is about the content of the business scope, not its purpose.

Listing 'A choice of 65 or more education courses' as a core service requirement is appropriate because the service requirements must meet the business needs, which include the essential (core), desirable, and optional requirements for service delivery.

Recording reduced recruitment costs as a cash-releasing benefit is appropriate because cash-releasing benefits, by definition, free up resources that can be directed elsewhere, such as into improving the project or service delivery.

These answers are based on the principles of business case development in Agile Project Management (AgilePM®) and the Better Business Cases approach. It's essential to clearly define and justify business needs, the scope of the project, service requirements, and benefits to develop a strong Strategic Outline Case (SOC) that aligns with project goals and objectives.
