Argyle Primary School Date: 21st September 2016 Finance Directorate Your reference: London Borough of Our reference: 20712771 Camden Enquiries to: [email protected] Judd Street London WC1H 9JE Tel 020 7974 2850 [email protected] Dear Ms Stephens Re: Freedom of Information Act 2000 – Supporting People Your request for information, received on 26th August 2016, has now been considered. You requested the following:- 1. The names of the schools in your borough that contain asbestos. 2. The date and outcome of the last independent audit or inspection of each of these schools Asbestos Management Plans. 3. The details of any reported incidents of asbestos exposure in these schools between 2011 and 2016. 4. The number of school employees (existing and retired staff to include teaching staff, school support staff and caretakers, etc) that have pursued a claim against you for exposure to asbestos within a Camden school. 5. The number of these claims that have been settled. 6. The amount of money that has been paid in settlement of these claims (with and without your authority accepting responsibility). Response 1. Management surveys are available at all schools where asbestos may be present, as required by the Control of Asbestos Regulations 2012. However, such surveys are not intrusive and hence may not provide a complete record of asbestos within all school buildings. Therefore, the approach taken is that all school buildings constructed prior to 2000 may contain asbestos material, even if this has not been identified within the management survey. The schools that were constructed (all or in part) pre 2000 and hence, may contain asbestos, are: Argyle Primary School; Beckford Primary School; Brecknock Primary School; Brookfield Primary School; Carlton Primary School; Christ Church NW1 CofE School; Christ Church NW3 CofE School; Christopher Hatton Primary School; Edith Neville Primary School; Eleanor Palmer Primary School; Emmanuel CofE School; Director Martin Pratt Jo Olsson Fitzjohn’s Primary School; Fleet Primary School; Gospel Oak Primary School; Hampstead Parochial CofE School; Hawley Infant School; Holy Trinity & St Silas CofE School; Holy Trinity CofE, NW3 School; Kentish Town CofE School; Kingsgate Primary School; Netley Primary School; New End Primary School; Our Lady’s RC School; Primrose Hill Primary School; Rhyl Primary School; Richard Cobden Primary School; Rosary RC School; St Alban’s CofE School; St Aloysius RC Infant School; St Aloysius RC Junior School; St Dominic’s RC School; St Eugene de Mazenod RC School; St George the Martyr RC School; St Joseph’s RC School; St Mary’s Kilburn CofE School; St Michael’s CofE School; St Patrick’s RC School; St Paul’s CofE School; Torriano Primary School; Acland Burghley Secondary School; Camden School for Girls; Hampstead Secondary School; La Sainte Union Catholic Secondary School; Maria Fidelis RC Convent Upper School; Maria Fidelis RC Convent Lower School; Parliament Hill Secondary School; Regent High School; William Ellis Secondary School; CCfL KS3 Chalcot School; CCfL KS4 Agincourt House; 2. An independent review of Asbestos Management Plans in all relevant schools took place last year, with new plans compiled and issued. The plans are reviewed on an annual basis. A programme of new management surveys and production of subsequent plans is underway and due to complete in early 2017. 3. There have been a total of 7 recorded incidents during 2011-2016. The details of the incidents are: a) Identification of asbestos material during removal of partition. It is believed that the asbestos was not disturbed b) Damage to asbestos insulating boards during installation of fire alarm system 2 c) Asbestos tiles identified. Asbestos was not disturbed d) Disturbance of asbestos material during the removal of lagging to heating pipework e) Crack identified to asbestos roof tile f) Asbestos debris within housing of roller shutter. Debris was removed under controlled conditions and area left safe g) Damage to buried asbestos during ground works. Material was removed under controlled conditions and area left safe. 4. There have been no claims made by school employees (existing and retired) in relation to asbestos. 5. Not applicable. 6. Not applicable. If you are unhappy with any aspect of the way in that your request has been processed then you have the right to request a review of our response. If you wish to request a review, please set out in writing your grounds of appeal (within 2 months of this correspondence) and send it to: Information & Records Management Team, Camden Town Hall, Judd Street, London, WC1H 9LP and your complaint will be administered through our Internal Review procedure.

  • 2019-20, the Education Sector, Along with Wider Society Generally, Has Experienced Unforeseen Challenges with the Emergence of Covid-19
    By the Chair of SACRE Foreword During the academic year 2019-20, the education sector, along with wider society generally, has experienced unforeseen challenges with the emergence of Covid-19. Camden SACRE began the academic year with vigour, committing to self-evaluate its work rigorously and develop an ambitious action plan accordingly. Camden SARE began the process of self-evaluation prior to the onset of coronavirus in the UK with positive outcomes. Once lockdown in the UK set in, SACRE ceased physical meetings, but continued working online behind the scenes. With the invaluable support of our RE advisor, Lesley Prior, and our Camden Learning colleagues, namely Owen Rees, we were able to continue this process of self-evaluation as well as lay down the foundations of an action plan for the coming year. We were able to adapt our working arrangements, as well as make the necessary concessions for schools that were set to renew determinations during the lockdown period, extending their time to do this. Schools have faced immense difficulties during the latter half of the academic year, unprecedented in recent times, and have tried their best to meet these challenges head on. Camden SACRE hopes that the teaching of RE and the place of collective worship within the school culture will remain important going forward. We will continue to try to support this in whatever way can, remaining as a positive partner for schools in Camden, especially during such difficult times, and hope that our new plans reflect that. As the last academic year for which I will be Chair, I also want to take some space here to thank all the members of the SACRE who have continued to work positively towards the objectives of Camden SACRE throughout my time as Chair, especially our RE advisors.

  • Camden Cultural Commissioning Model Introduction
    Camden Cultural Commissioning Model Introduction Context The borough of Camden is home to a vibrant and growing cultural sector, including some of London’s most creative organisations. Across the borough, education, arts and local authority partners are committed to ensuring that young people in Camden can access high-quality creative opportunities both in and out of school. Over the past 3 years, partners from Camden’s School Improvement and Arts & Tourism services have worked closely with Roundhouse in its role as an Arts Council Associate Bridge organisation for London, to develop a robust commissioning process that increases quality, reduces administration, and supports new partnerships between local schools and cultural organisations. Image Front Cover © Ellie Pinney - House of Illustration Let’s Illustrate! session Image © Peter Schiazza - Creative projects at Roundhouse Building a Cultural Commissioning Model The Camden Cultural Commissioning Model (CCM) was developed in response to significant changes to funding and structures faced by schools, cultural providers and local authorities, alongside a shared desire to continue to maximise the unique cultural offer that exists in Camden. The CCM supports schools and other education providers to develop innovative, creative, needs-led partnerships with cultural organisations, directly linked to school improvement priorities. Over the past 3 years, the CCM has evolved from pilot phase to a consortium of over 40 cultural and education partners from across the borough of Camden. At a time of significant change for both the cultural and education sectors in London, the CCM has facilitated high-quality opportunities for schools to build links with Camden’s dynamic creative sector, and to develop and share best practice around integrating creative opportunities across the curriculum.
