  • Prospectus 2017/18
    North and South Cowton Community Primary School Prospectus 2017/18 Enjoy School – Be Ready for Life North And South Cowton Community Primary School Prospectus 2011/12 Welcome to our school prospectus. My name is Trevor Watson and I am Executive Headteacher of North and South Cowton Community Primary School. This is my first year in post where I took over from Mr Briggs who had been Head for 6 years. The school is a happy and successful school, which was judged as good by Ofsted in March 2017. We have two buildings in the village of North Cowton, which accommodate our two classes; one infant class, catering for children from Early Years Foundation Stage up to year 2, and one junior class for years 3 to 6. However, the school is not constrained by these physical boundaries and truly extends into the heart of the community. We have a dedicated and talented team of staff, volunteers and governors, who work hard to ensure that all our children develop to their full social, sporting and academic potential. We are an inclusive school, which recognises and values the different talents and abilities of everyone who is part of our community. We strive to ensure that our children are healthy and we have a reputation for sporting success. As a small school, all our children have the chance to participate in a range of team sports; the children learn to support each other and respect each others strengths. This maturity and team work has consistently resulted in winning performances, and contributes significantly to the children’s personal and social development.

  • Middleton Tyas and Moulton Village News a Bright Future?
    Middleton Tyas and Moulton Village News No. 445 February 2014 The Zetland Hunt sets off down Smithgutter Lane after a stirrup cup at The Shoulder of Mutton A bright future? How’s this for a traditional sight? Black and white just didn’t do it justice so I decided to splash out on full colour. It would be good to carry more photos and to have more full colour but that depends entirely on your generosity, which is one way off saying that it’s by no means too late to think about a donation to keep the Village News coming through your letter box every month. It’s not just about money either. It wouldn’t happen at all without the people who faithfully send copy every month and the team of distributors who are out in all weathers to make sure your copy arrives. If you know of anybody who would like a copy and doesn’t currently receive one, please let me know and we’ll arrange for them to get one. On the other hand, if you would find it just as easy to read the Village News on the village website every month, let me know and we’ll take you off the distribution list for paper copies. This month sees a major event in the Village Shop’s Year. We all know that normally attending an AGM can be only fractionally more interesting than watching paint dry but that’s not the case with the shop’s open meetings. The issues discussed and the outcomes are often things which get to the heart of what living in a village is about.

This is known as the Plan Area. Some settlements however fall part inside the National Park, namely Hudswell, Downholme and East Witton, yet they have been included in this study. The purpose of this study is to help us to understand the role of each settlement in the local area and to guide us in planning for the future of each settlement and the Plan Area as a whole. Gathering Information This study has been updated from its original version which was compiled in June 2009. As part of this update a range of local sources have been used, including contact with and feedback from local Parish Councils and Meetings, information held by the Council, desktop studies, web resources and site visits to the relevant settlements. Maintaining the Information It is the nature of such studies that they date very quickly; therefore we will update this study on a regular basis.

At its heart is the Heritage at Risk Register, an online database containing details of each site known to be at risk. It is analysed and updated annually and this leaflet summarises the results. Each of our nine local offices now hosts a dedicated Heritage at Risk team, delivering national expertise locally. The good news is that we are on target to save 25% (1,137) of the sites that were on the Register in 2010 by 2015. From the historic battlefield at Towton to ancient barrows on the Wolds, this success is down to good partnerships with owners, developers, the Heritage Lottery Fund, Natural England, councils and local groups.

This year, we undertook a pioneering 15% sample survey of England’s 14,500 listed places of worship to help us understand the condition of the thousands of designated churches, chapels, synagogues, mosques and temples and other faith buildings that are the spiritual focus for our communities. They face many different kinds of challenges and we need to ensure their future.
