MYTON SCHOOL Local Plan Update – Dec 2014
2
WDC Local Plan - Background The Warwick District Council (“WDC”) Local Plan sets out Council’s policies and proposals to support the development of the District through to 2029 The April 2014 Draft WDC Local Plan (“LP”) was published for a 6 week period of public consultation (16 th May to 27 th June 2014) A further, focused consultation is now being undertaken which closes on 12 th Dec 2014 to consider: –Proposed major amendments to allocations within the Local Plan –To assess suitability of alternative employment land options It is now anticipated that the LP will be submitted to the Secretary of State by April 2015 (delayed) An Inspector will be appointed to conduct an Examination in Public in Summer 2015 The plan will hopefully be adopted in Autumn 2015

Southern Sites Developments Within the LP, the southern sites housing developments are located within the Myton School and Campion School priority areas Within the April 2014 Draft LP, 4,918 houses were predicted within the southern sites developments. This number remains relatively unchanged at 5,040 houses. –Outline planning permission has already been given for approximately 2,700 homes This number of houses yields 914 secondary students and 178 post-16 (total 1,092) over an estimated15 year period. In addition, basic need for places is also increasing – approx. 150 places over 10 years

2 secondary school solution In the original LP draft published back in May 2012, it was suggested that a new secondary school was built on Gallagher’s owned land, south of Harbury Lane) Myton School and Campion School presented a 2 secondary school solution to WCC and WDC instead to address the following: –A new secondary school built up over 15 years is not financially feasible –A new secondary school could have a significant adverse effect on Campion School that serves the more challenging South Leamington community –A new secondary school would potentially isolate the new community –A new secondary school would divert vital capital funding away from investment in the current schools –Myton School and Campion School are both successful schools, that serve their communities well and have capacity to work together to provide a 21 st century education environment for an expanded Warwick and South Leamington community

2 secondary school solution The 2 secondary school solution, as supported by WCC / WDC: CAMPION SCHOOL –Campion would increase from 875 up to 1,400 (including 200 post-16) – an increase of 525 students. –This increase in capacity would occur in the later phases of the 15 year development plan MYTON SCHOOL –Myton School would develop an Education Campus by re-using some of its current buildings and building new accommodation to increase from 1,702 up to 2,400 (including 425 post-16) – an increase of 698 students –Currently it is anticipated that Myton would increase it’s capacity to approx. 2,100 by Sept 2018 (phase 1) followed by a further increase to 2,400 by Sept 2020 (phase 2) –A 2 form entry primary school would also be built on the Myton School site and Myton School would become a 3 – 18 school. The primary school would be built as part of phase 1 of the building project –Enhanced sports facilities would also be developed on the site in conjunction with WDC to ensure community use –To part fund this initiative, Myton School would sell approx. 5 hectares of land running parallel to Myton School –9 hectares of additional education land would be donated to Myton School by developers on the south side of the school boundary
