Black Country Urban Park Barometer
3333333 Black Country Urban Park Barometer April 2013 DRAFT WORK IN PROGRESS Welcome to the Black Country Urban Park Barometer. Transformation of the Environmental Infrastructure is one of the key to drivers identified in the Black Country Strategy for Growth and Competitiveness. The full report looks at the six themes created under the ‘Urban Park’ theme and provides a spatial picture of that theme accompanied with the key assets and opportunities for that theme. Foreword to be provided by Roger Lawrence The Strategic Context Quality of the Black Country environment is one of the four primary objectives of the Black Country Vision that has driven the preparation of the Black Country Strategy for Growth and Competitiveness through the Black Country Study process. The environment is critical to the health and well-being of future residents, workers and visitors to the Black Country. It is also both a major contributor to, and measure of, wider goals for sustainable development and living as well as being significantly important to the economy of the region. The importance and the desire for transforming the Black Country environment has been reinforced through the evidence gathering and analysis of the Black Country Study process as both an aspiration in its own right and as a necessity to achieve economic prosperity. Evidence from the Economic and Housing Studies concluded that ‘the creation of new environments will be crucial for attracting investment from high value-added firms’ and similarly that ‘a high quality healthy environment is a priority for ‘knowledge workers’. The Economic Strategy puts ‘Environmental Transformation’ alongside Education & Skills as the fundamental driver to achieve Black Country economic renaissance and prosperity for its people.

Hagley Park TEACHERS' INFORMATION PACK
Hagley Park TEACHERS’ INFORMATION PACK Contents Section 1 Introduction 2 Section 2 The Historic Park at Hagley 4 Section 3 Educational Opportunities 14 Section 4 Visiting Hagley Park 19 Section 5 Hazard Information for Visiting Groups 24 The opposite pages throughout have been left intentionally blank for you to record your ideas and thoughts thus making this a personalised working document. 1 Section 1: Introduction Welcome Thank you for your interest in visiting Hagley Park. We hope that you will recognise the potential of such an experience to inspire your pupils, and inform and enrich their education. The visit allows pupils to see for themselves how a heritage site can engage and inform through a myriad of disciplines in an enjoyable and safe environment. This pack will help you to prepare a successful programme tailored to suit the needs of your group. What is Heritage? Heritage can be seen as a chronological measure which encompasses all that our environment contains. It includes the geological formation of the terrain, the flora and fauna adapted to survive those conditions, but is more usually recognised as a timeline mapping changes wrought by the progression of human endeavours which have shaped our world. Stretching back to our hunter/gatherer origins, the landforms, objects, buildings and monuments we now excavate, preserve, restore and display are obvious physical manifestations of such activity, with their combinations of material, structure, purpose and decorative style, illustrating not only technological advances, but also the acceptance and rejection of ideas. These are the more intangible traditions of language, meaning, belief and behaviour, and it is from this accumulated culture of our collective memory that we derive a sense of place, identity, and local character, which ultimately influences our perception of the world.
