  • Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the Differences Between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas
    Addendum to School Places Strategy 2017-2022 – Explanation of the differences between Wiltshire Community Areas and Wiltshire School Planning Areas This document should be read in conjunction with the School Places Strategy 2017 – 2022 and provides an explanation of the differences between the Wiltshire Community Areas served by the Area Boards and the School Planning Areas. The Strategy is primarily a school place planning tool which, by necessity, is written from the perspective of the School Planning Areas. A School Planning Area (SPA) is defined as the area(s) served by a Secondary School and therefore includes all primary schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into that secondary school. As these areas can differ from the community areas, this addendum is a reference tool to aid interested parties from the Community Area/Area Board to define which SPA includes the schools covered by their Community Area. It is therefore written from the Community Area standpoint. Amesbury The Amesbury Community Area and Area Board covers Amesbury town and surrounding parishes of Tilshead, Orcheston, Shrewton, Figheldean, Netheravon, Enford, Durrington (including Larkhill), Milston, Bulford, Cholderton, Wilsford & Lake, The Woodfords and Great Durnford. It encompasses the secondary schools The Stonehenge School in Amesbury and Avon Valley College in Durrington and includes primary schools which feed into secondary provision in the Community Areas of Durrington, Lavington and Salisbury. However, the School Planning Area (SPA) is based on the area(s) served by the Secondary Schools and covers schools in the towns and surrounding villages which feed into either The Stonehenge School in Amesbury or Avon Valley College in Durrington.

    WILTSHIRE BOTANY JOURNAL OF THE WILTSHIRE BOTANICAL SOCIETY ISSUE NO. 3, February 2000 CONTENTS 1 E DITORIAL 2 The Flora of Berwick St. James Barbara Last 15 Grassland Communities on Salisbury Plain Training Area: Results of the ITE ecological survey Kevin Walker and Richard Pywell 28 The recent history of Batology in Wiltshire Rob Randall 33 Plant records 1997 35 Addition to 1996 records 36 Plant records 1998 Wiltshire Botany 3, 2000, page1 EDITORIAL Each issue of Wiltshire Botany so far has managed to break new ground. This issue contains the first village flora to be included. Barbara Last has systematically recorded the plants growing in Berwick St James, and her article gives an account of her findings. Hopefully, it will inspire others to do similar work in their own localities. Our second article is the first systematic account we have published on the vegetation of Salisbury Plain. In this case, Kevin Walker and Richard Pywell describe the grassland communities of the MoD Training Area. Kevin and Richard can be contacted at the Institute of Terrestrial Ecology, Monks Wood, Abbots Ripton, Huntingdon, Cambs., PE17 2LS. Tel. 01487 773381.Fax. 01487 773467. Email; [email protected] Innovation is complemented by continuity. Rob Randall’s article continues his account of the history of recording the many different species of bramble in Wiltshire. His account brings us more or less up to the present day. It is hoped that the next issue will contain what is effectively an up-to-date bramble flora of Wiltshire. As in previous issues, a selection of the Society’s plant records is included.
