Core Strategy Consultation on Strategy Directions 2008

Representation ID: 19780

Received: 30/01/2009

Respondent: East Sussex County Council

Representation Summary:

Secondary provision for pupils in the Hastings Fringe area is most likely to be met most effectively by schools in Hastings rather then in Rother District, but this would mean the revision of community areas used for Admissions purposes, and therefore needs much more detailed work.
Paragraph 6.43 refers to location of future major development of around 1000 dwellings. Additional primary school places will most likely be needed for pupils arising from this development, and that these may be best met by providing a new school (1FE minimum size), possibly on the Rother side of the boundary.
Para 6.55 should be amended to ' the new replacement secondary school at Bexhill'.
