County Durham Playing Pitch and Outdoor Sports Study Stakeholder Consultation Report – Strategic/County-Wide County Durham Playing Pitch and Outdoor Sports Study Stakeholder Consultation Report – Strategic/County-wide 1. Introduction This report provides stakeholder feedback on a County-wide or strategic basis in relation to the County Durham Playing Pitch and Outdoor Sports Study 1. It provides an overview of findings secured from a variety of stakeholders including: • Sport England • National governing bodies of pitch, court and greens sports • County Durham Sport • Durham County Council officers • Sports clubs Section 2 provides a brief description of the methodology used for the consultation process and section 3 summarises the main views and perspective of stakeholders with a strategic interest in the project including Sport England, County Durham Sport, and various County Council officers. Section 4 covers findings relating to the individual main pitch sports (cricket, football, hockey, rugby union and rugby league) and Section 5 the non-pitch outdoor sports (basketball, bowls, netball and tennis). 1 Detailed local findings from sports clubs, town/parish councils and schools can be found in the 14 Area Action Partnership Profiles that have also been produced as part of the study. Page | 1 2. Methodology Consultation and engagement with stakeholders was undertaken using a variety of methods including: • Interviews with key strategic stakeholders such as Sport England, the sports’ governing bodies, County Durham Sport, Durham University and various key officers from Durham County Council. • Questionnaire surveys (postal and/or e-mail as appropriate) to: Pitch sports clubs Outdoor non-pitch sports clubs Sports league secretaries Town and parish councils Schools via the six School Sports Partnerships • Five community workshops organised to cover the five County Durham Community Sports Network (CSN) areas. The surveys were carefully tailored to the different types or respondent. For example the surveys to pitch sport clubs were posted directly to the club secretary and were individualised to contain team and pitch information relevant to that club gathered from Sport England (clubs were then invited to amend that information if incorrect). The survey also contained a local map on which clubs could indicate other grounds that they might be prepared to play on as well as providing the opportunity to highlight any open space that they thought had potential for the development of new facilities. This report features some general county wide findings from the surveys where appropriate, but the more detailed local stakeholder consultation findings, including those from the town/parish councils, schools and the CSN workshops, will be found within the 14 Area Action Partnership profiles that have also been produced as part of the project. Page | 2 3. Strategic Partners 3.1 Sport England A fundamental issue for Sport England is the current lack of a comprehensive understanding of the sporting needs of the county and a clear strategic framework to guide future delivery. They consider that the PPG 17 Study completed in 2009 will only be fully compliant when it is supported by an Open Space Strategy, Built Facilities Strategy and a Playing Pitch study. Playing pitch studies exist in whole or in part for many of the 7 former authorities which now constitute the unitary authority of Durham County Council but they are not consistent enough to establish a complete picture for the whole county. The county has a pressing need, because of development pressures, to put in place a comprehensive planning framework and a clear approach towards sport needs to be an integral part of the emerging Core Strategy. In addition to the need for a comprehensive overview of sporting needs and provision the following key issues were identified:- • The playing pitch study needs to be a robust document that will facilitate a co- ordinated approach towards pitch provision across the county. • Access to school facilities out of school hours is a concern to many clubs and organisations as community use agreements are not consistently applied and adhered to. Further rationalisation of schools could make the situation worse. • Town Councils have a critical role to play in the provision of pitches but standards of maintenance are inconsistent. • The Consett Building Schools for the Future (BSF) scheme is continuing and the Stanley scheme is progressing. Both will have an impact on the provision of sports facilities and pitches, which needs to be positive. • A clear community infrastructure is lacking in the county at present. • The overall provision of built facilities in the county is an issue. Each of the new towns in the area had a target population but these have never been reached. However facilities were provided at the outset to cater for the target population and taking all the facilities into account there is an apparent overprovision. • Aykley Heads Police Sports Facility, including indoor facilities, changing rooms and outdoor pitches is due to close at the end of March 2011. The buildings will be demolished. Whilst there is funding for pitch maintenance for the rest of this season after that there is nothing but the pitches are considered to be important for the city. There is also a longer term development threat to the site. The playing pitch study needs to help establish the value of and need for the site as its pitches currently are excellent. Page | 3 3.2 County Durham Sport The County Durham Sports partnership works with various partner organisations to help improve and get more local people to take part in sport and physical activity. The main partners are the County Council, Sport England, NHS County Durham and the University. National Governing Bodies for sport are involved as part of the wider network. Key points identified in discussion were:- • Only three sports within the county currently have a facilities strategy – cricket, swimming and tennis. • In terms of football there appears to be a reasonable supply of facilities for seniors but an under supply for juniors. • The investment strategy around football needs to be related to the residual BSF programme. • School pitches are sometimes made available but in a majority of instances no other facilities i.e. changing rooms are available at the same time. • School sites will continue to have a major impact on sporting provision across the county and a clear, comprehensive approach towards community use is needed. • Access is a continuing issue for sporting activities because of the remote nature of much of the community. • There is considered to be a shortfall of pitch provision for Rugby. • Cricket is considered to be reasonably well provided for as regards quantity of facilities. • Bowls – many greens and a lot of indoor activity. • Hockey has the regional performance centre at the University playing fields based on a water based STP. • The PMP Facilities Strategy gives a good overview of the provision of indoor sports facilities that is relatively up to date. • In the current economic climate budget reduction is a reality and the Council may be looking to dispose of and rationalise assets including looking for others to continue with facility provision eg the Golf Club outside Durham which is currently being released. • There is still a shortage of artificial turf pitches (3G) in the Easington /Sedgefield areas and Rugby are looking for 3 in the south/central area. • Their priority is getting the County Sports Strategy completed and Partnership Support for focus sports. The primary output for the strategy is likely to be based around securing the improvement of performance sports at the local level. • Focus Sports include Fencing, Hockey, Lacrosse and Rowing and are ones which NGB’s are actively investing to engage the community. • Future changes to the delivery of public sector services will have a major impact on the partnership. Page | 4 • More and more the County Council wants to be seen as an enabler to help clubs and organisations deliver the activities on the ground. Asset transfer is a key part of that activity. There is obviously concern about how assets are transferred as disposal is often seen as the most attractive financially but other considerations need to be borne in mind ie continuity of service/activity, local needs and demands. • The trust route is also being considered for all of the ‘cultural’ services. • Action Sport type initiatives are likely to be reduced with clubs being expected to provide development initiatives for themselves. • In terms of participation, a Physical Activity Strategy is now in place, it’s not so leisure focussed and is more about lifestyle choices. • A review of school sport is being carried out with a view to being in place by September to replace the School Sports Partnerships. • Links for school sports clubs and clubs using schools are continuing as is investment into sports development but there will be a move away from the traditional sports development provision. • A future focus is likely to be physical activity networks ie generating an interest in a particular activity and then looking at what or who is available to deliver it. • An active people survey is still to be done. Page | 5 3.3 Durham University The University is a key provider of world class sports facilities, one of County Durham Sports main partners and a significant provider of community sports opportunities. Currently the University provides the following sports facilities at its main site • Three rugby pitches plus an “all weather pitch” which is also being used for football with six football games being played on a Saturday and six rugby on a Sunday. • Seven grass football pitches plus a further two that are marked out on the cricket area during the winter and used mainly for women’s games. • One cricket pitch. At any one time they are using 9 football pitches playing up to 5 games a week on each.

  • Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic
    Cabinet 6 February 2019 School Admission Arrangements Academic Year 2020/21 Report of Corporate Management Team Margaret Whellans, Corporate Director, Children and Young People's Services Councillor Olwyn Gunn, Portfolio Holder for Children and Young People’s Services Electoral division(s) affected: Countywide Purpose of the Report 1 The purpose of this report is to ask Cabinet to consider and approve the proposed admission arrangements and oversubscription criteria for Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools for the 2020/21 academic year. Executive summary 2 There is a proposed additional criterion to the current oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools. The Government wishes admission authorities to introduce oversubscription criteria to give children who were previously in state care outside of England, and have ceased to be in state care as a result of being adopted, second highest priority for admission into school. This is because the Government believes such children are vulnerable and may have experienced abuse and neglect prior to being adopted. 3 Consultation has been carried out with schools, other admission authorities, Governing Bodies and parents on the council's admission arrangements in accordance with the national School Admissions Code as it is 7 years since they were last consulted on. Recommendation 4 Cabinet is asked to agree the proposed oversubscription criteria for admission to Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools; and to agree the following in respect of Community and Voluntary Controlled Schools, when determining the admission arrangements for 2020/21: (i) That the proposed admission numbers as recommended in Appendix 2 be approved. (ii) That the admission arrangements at Appendix 3 be approved.

Executive summary 3 Previous Cabinet reports have outlined the funding challenges that all schools face which are particularly pronounced for schools in rural settings which have fewer than 600 pupils (the Department for Education threshold for viability), which includes Wolsingham School and Sixth Form. 4 Of a wide number of options set out in the report of November 2017, and subsequently assessed and reported upon, the only viable options facing the school (short of closure) were federation with other schools or for governors to agree to a decision to join a multi-academy trust. 5 The option for Wolsingham School to federate with other schools was fully considered but too few schools agreed to form a federation, leading officers to conclude that the savings achievable would not be sufficient to eliminate the in-year and accumulated deficit of Wolsingham School.
