The well appointed accommodation is set over 4000 sq/ft and the current owners have used the front portion of the property as a successful beauty salon and spa for the past 16 years. To the rear is the living accommodation, in itself a more than substantial family home which is tastefully presented throughout. The house is full of character, in keeping with the period including a truly spectacular full height inner reception hall with magnificent staircase. Other features of note include; sash windows with shutters, deep skirting boards and decorative ceilings.

  • Wakefield Metropolitan District Council Home to School Transport
    WAKEFIELD METROPOLITAN DISTRICT COUNCIL HOME TO SCHOOL TRANSPORT POST 16 TRANSPORT POLICY 2018/2019 eport on: Transport policy statement for learners aged 16-18 in further education and training and continuing learners with Special Educational Needs and Disabilities aged 19 and over ACADEMIC YEAR: 2018/2019 1 1. SUMMARY OF POLICY STATEMENT AND MAIN OBJECTIVES 1.1 There is no automatic entitlement to free home to school or college transport once a student is over 16 years. Responsibility for making appropriate transport arrangements rests with a student and/or parents/carers. 1.2 Providing assisted transport (e.g. taxis, specially adapted vehicles) will only be provided in exceptional circumstances. 1.3 Wakefield Council is committed to ensuring that every child and young person can fulfil their potential. The aim of this policy is that all children and young people with an Education Health and Care Plan (EHCP) should lead lives that are as independent and as free from restriction as possible and that each child and young person is supported to achieve independent travel wherever practicable. 1.4 This policy explains the entitlement to travel assistance for children and young people post 16. Wakefield Council’s policies on travel to and from school and other establishments for statutory aged pupils and statutory aged pupils with special educational needs are available separately. 1.5 The main objective of the Wakefield Transport Partnership is to provide accessibility to education or training as a means of promoting learning, training, social inclusion, choice and diversity of learning provision. The central principal is that no learner should be prevented from taking part in full-time education (not less than 12 guided learning hours per week) or training because of the lack of support travelling to an education or training or learning provision or where appropriate, an independent specialist institution.

  • Top Academy Heads Elected to Help Schools Flourish Published on the Hub (
    Press release: Top academy heads elected to help schools flourish Published on The Hub (https://thehub.walthamforest.gov.uk) Press release: Top academy heads elected to help schools flourish The Department for Education has announced the names of the 32 headteachers who have been voted by their peers to sit on the boards of the 8 new regional schools commissioners (RSCs). Please note that this article was originally published by the DfE. The Department for Education has announced the names of the 32 headteachers who have been voted by their peers to sit on the boards of the 8 new regional schools commissioners (RSCs). More than 1,600 headteachers took part in the vote to elect their peers to the headteacher boards (HTBs), which start in September. These new bodies, of 6 to 8 members, will help the 8 newly appointed RSCs be champions for academy freedoms, identify where new academies can be created, and provide a failure regime for the small number of academies which are struggling. The 32 elected are education experts with the experience and local knowledge needed to help academies in their areas flourish. They are all headteachers, or recent headteachers, from schools judged by Ofsted to have ‘outstanding’ leadership and management. RSCs will take on responsibilities previously held by the Secretary of State, such as agreeing or rejecting academy applications, and their combined local insight will mean they can make informed decisions on when and how to intervene. Schools Minister Lord Nash said: Headteacher boards will provide an excellent body of support for our regional school commissioners in their task of improving the education of pupils across England.
