The study is driven by the need to inform a number of current leisure facility proposals, including those in the regeneration areas of Knutton Cross Heath and Silverdale. Scope of the Study 1.2 The study encompasses an assessment of all formal indoor and outdoor sport and leisure facilities. The study has focussed on those facilities typically provided directly or supported by the Local Authority (including Sports Halls, Swimming Pools, Health and Fitness, Playing Pitches, Tennis Courts, Bowling Greens). Community Centres have also been considered within the assessment in relation to their role in the provision of community based leisure provision. 1.3 The study has been undertaken to provide a borough wide assessment of need. This borough wide assessment forms the context and background for further analysis on a local level to inform the following: • A local needs assessment to inform current proposals for the Renew (Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder) area of major intervention (AMI) for formal outdoor sports and indoor leisure provision (specifically Leisure Centres and Community Centres) centred on the Knutton and Cross Heath area • A local needs assessment to inform current proposals for the former Silverdale Colliery site for formal outdoor sports and formal indoor leisure provision (outdoor sports facilities, Leisure Centres and Community Centres) • A local area based playing pitch assessment for the urban area of the Borough (including Kidsgrove) to inform proposals for a “grouped” (multi-pitch) playing pitch site located centrally within the Borough. This proposal also needs to be considered alongside the recent Sports Village Model developed by the Football Association, which makes reference to the opportunity for new facility development within Housing Market Renewal area (Knutton and Cross Heath) 1.4 The Study has adopted a holistic and integrated approach to the specific proposals identified above. This is specifically relevant for the grouped playing pitch site where the AMI and former Silverdale Colliery Site were considered as potential sites for this provision. 1.5 Early project research also identified plans by Newcastle-under-Lyme College to rationalise their campus provision, and through the sale of one site, potentially fund the development of new sports facilities on the Trinity Road campus. This proposal has been considered through the assessment process. The planned development could in theory link to the proposal for a grouped playing pitch site (potentially in the Knutton Cross Heath area). Leisure Needs Assessment & Playing Pitch Strategy– Draft Report May 2006 1 SECTION I – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Framework for the Study 1.6 The guidance detailed in “Assessing Needs and Opportunities: A Companion Guide to PPG17” which details methods for undertaking local assessments of sport and recreation provision, has been used as the framework for the study methodology. The study has included an audit of existing indoor and outdoor sports facilities in terms of: • Quantity • Quality • Accessibility 1.7 The study undertaken has included: • Consideration of the likely facility needs in the future (over the next 10 years) • A review of existing leisure and recreation strategy and policy • A range of consultation exercises to ascertain the views of the local community, key interest groups and wider stakeholders • Consideration of all facilities within the borough, including provision by the local authority (including education), private and voluntary sectors • An assessment of playing pitch provision using the methodology detailed in “Toward a Level Playing Field: A Guide to the Production of Playing Pitch Strategies” (Sport England, 2002) • Recommendations for local standards of provision with regard to quantity, quality and accessibility • Review of current indoor facility provision in the light of new CPA guidelines i.e. all residents should be within 20 minutes (walking – urban areas / driving – rural areas) of three quality facilities (indoor or outdoor), one of which should have a recognised quality accreditation. The Newcastle-under-Lyme Approach: Methodology 1.8 For the assessment, the Companion Guide to PPG17 identifies five key steps to undertaking an assessment of playing pitches, indoor facilities and open space. These are broadly: • Step 1 – Identifying Local Needs • Step 2 – Auditing Local Provision • Step 3 – Setting Provision Standards • Step 4 – Applying Provision Standards • Step 5 – Policy Options 1.9 The desirable outcomes from undertaking a PPG 17 Assessment are to provide local people with networks of accessible, high quality sport and recreation facilities in both rural and urban areas, which will meet the needs of LOCAL people and visitors. 1.10 PPG 17 strives to provide a balance between enhancing existing provision and new provision. The study undertaken in the Newcastle-under-Lyme Borough has followed the framework provided. Leisure Needs Assessment & Playing Pitch Strategy– Draft Report May 2006 2 SECTION I – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND 1.11 A number of key tasks have been undertaken to complete the assessment and develop standards of provision and recommendations. These are summarised below: 1.12 Stage 1: Identification of local needs: The following key tasks have been undertaken: • A review of the implications and priorities of existing strategies to identify links with existing strategic priorities • A review of existing policies and provision standards relating to open space, sport and recreation facilities • Consultation with the community and stakeholders via Sports Club Surveys, School Surveys and Face-to-face meetings. Additionally a door-to-door survey to capture the views of facility users and non-users was undertaken 1.13 Stage 2: Audit of local provision: The following key tasks have been undertaken: • Review of quantitative information held by the Council • Site visits to all known formal sport and recreation facilities with community use (across all sectors – Public, Commercial, Education) • Consultation with facility providers • Mapping facilities in respect of location and catchment area 1.14 Stage 3: Setting Provision Standards: The following key tasks have been undertaken: • Quantity Standards set using the findings of facility audits, local consultation and demand modelling • Accessibility Standards set using the findings of facility audits, local consultation and mapping catchment areas 1.15 Stage 4: Application of Provision Standards: On the basis of the set standards, application of these, such as defined catchment areas, the impact of poor quality, allows the: • Identification of deficiencies in accessibility • Identification of deficiencies in quality • Identification of surpluses or deficiencies

  • Staffordshire Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education
    Staffordshire Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education 24th Annual Report September 2013 - September 2014 1 From the Chair of SACRE SACREs (Standing Advisory Councils on Religious Education) are unusually distinctive in their composition, duties and procedures. They also vary considerably from one Local Authority to another, depending on such factors as which faith communities are represented, how well the SACRE is resourced, and how the SACRE itself has evolved over the last two decades. In the case of Staffordshire SACRE, for instance, there is a marked difference between the formal, tightly controlled character of SACRE meetings in the early 1990’s, and the participative, interactive nature of meetings in more recent years. I am sure this latter style enables each of the stakeholder groups in the SACRE better to “own” and identify with our SACRE’s work. In terms of Local Authority support, we are fortunate in Staffordshire SACRE to enjoy both the ongoing active involvement of County Council representatives and also the stability and encouragement provided by a ring-fenced level of resourcing carried over into the agreement with Entrust, together with the continuing and very welcome administrative services provided by the County Council. In these times of austerity, many SACREs are not so well placed. The exact composition of a SACRE is determined by its parent Local Authority, which will have due regard to the faith groups present in the area as well as to the broader picture of faiths and beliefs nationally and globally. The faith group composition of Staffordshire SACRE has remained largely static, even if the actual faith representatives change, but it is worth highlighting the addition to Group A of the Humanist representative, after some years technically as an observer.

  • 2008 Year 11 School Leavers Going Into Higher Education in 2010
    Tracking Progression: 2008 Year 11 school leavers going into Higher Education in 2010 Staffordshire & Stoke-on-Trent March 2011 Introduction Analysis of entry to Higher Education (HE) by Local Authority, district and mainstream, maintained high school This report shows the proportion of all 2008 Year 11 high school students who went on to enter Higher Education (HE) at age 18 in 2010 (i.e. after two years of further education). Figures include those who have an unconditional place offer and are taking a 'gap year'. This study includes those who have entered HE from both the school and college sectors. The report sub-divides the Year 11 cohort into quintiles based on where they live. So Quintile 1 represents those areas in the County/City that are among the 20% most deprived in the country and identifies how many learners in the cohort come from this quintile, and how many of those subsequently applied to higher education. Quintile 5 represents those from areas in the 20% least deprived in the country. The deprivation of an area is based on the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) which is described below (see*). To provide some comparison year on year, data for 2008 entry to HE has been included in the analysis. * The Index of Multiple Deprivation 2007 (IMD 2007) is based on the small area of geography known as Lower Super Output Areas (LSOAs). LSOAs have a population between 1,000 and 3,000 people, with an average of 1,500 people. In most cases, these are smaller than wards, thus allowing the identification of small pockets of deprivation.
