Proposed Submission Core Strategy and Policies Development Plan Document Review

Representation ID: 5271

Received: 05/03/2015

Respondent: New Anglia LEP for Norfolk and Suffolk

Representation Summary:

CS15 recognises the NPPF requirement for a proactive, positive and collaborative approach to ensuring sufficient school places. Planned housing growth is expected to generate additional pupils:
Early Years 68; Primary 169; Secondary 122; Sixth Form 27.
Schools and early years settings are operating at/close to capacity. Growth in pupil numbers from housing growth and population growth justifies CS15's positive approach and the need for a new primary school in the Town Centre. Windfall development (1800 dwellings) will also generate pupils: Early Years 180; Primary 450; Secondary 324; Sixth Form 72. This overall scale can be managed through expanding existing schools.

Representation Summary:

CS15 refers to safeguarding land for educational uses within IGS through the Proposals Map. Our representations against Policy CS10 demonstrate why it is inappropriate for this level of detail to be shown on the policies map: it is not appropriate to establish detailed and inflexible land use parameters within strategic policies, particularly in the context of an SPD which the Council has already approved on an interim basis. The cross-reference to Policy CS10 can be retained, but it is inappropriate for a specific education site to be identified on the policies map. The wording of CS15 should be amended accordingly.
