  • Statutory Notice
    Statutory Notice THIS NOTICE REPLACES A PREVIOUS NOTICE PUBLISHED ON 19 JUNE 2015, WHICH HAS NOW BEEN WITHDRAWN. Notice is hereby given in accordance with Regulation 4 of The School Organisation (Removal of Foundation, Reduction in Number of Foundation Governors and Ability of Foundation to Pay Debts) (England) Regulations 2007 that the following Schools: Bellingham First School, Redesmouth Road, Bellingham, Hexham NE48 2EL; and Bellingham Middle School and Sports College, Redesmouth Road, Bellingham, Hexham, Northumberland NE48 2EN have published proposals to remove the North Pennine Learning Partnership (“NPLP”) as their foundation. In the interests of providing further information, Haydon Bridge High School also forms part of the NPLP, but it should be noted that proposals for this school are not included in this Statutory Notice. The proposed implementation date (i.e. the date upon which NPLP would be removed as the foundation for Bellingham First School and Bellingham Middle School and Sports College) is 9th August 2015. Within six weeks from the date of publication of these proposals, by midnight on Thursday 6th August 2015, any person may object to or make comments on the proposals by writing to either of the two Schools at the addresses above. Why it is proposed to remove NPLP as the foundation The aim of the Trust was to improve the educational opportunities for all children within the partnership and create professional development opportunities for all staff and governors. In the early years of the Trust there were shared educational activities between the Schools but these have not been sustained and in later years the individual schools have all faced increased challenges which the Trust was unable to support.

  • Northumbrian Flag
    Intro2Bellingham These teacher’s notes accompany the Intro2Bellingham slideshow by giving further information and suggestions for preparatory activities in school. They’ll help children to understand: What they will see on their way to Bellingham What’s in and around Bellingham The geography of the area How people lived in the past What they can see and do at the Heritage Centre. Project it onto your whiteboard for group work or let children follow it themselves on a PC. No, you’re not going to another country when you come to Bellingham. You may come by this road. (But you’ll be pretty close to Scotland, which is less than 30kms away.) Courtesy Richard Dam This is the Northumbrian flag. It’s the A68 and was first built by the Romans nearly 2000 years ago. It starts from their military base at Corbridge and leads into Scotland. We started using it in 1995. You’ll see it a lot when you come It may be straight but it can be a bumpy ride! because we’re proud of our heritage. ACTIVITIES Trace the route you will be travelling to Bellingham using a road atlas or Google maps. What do you notice about the route of the A66? Are there other Roman roads nearby? (The B6318, known as the ‘Military Road’ is built on a Roman road used to supply the forts along Hadrian’s Wall.) Which Roman sites might you pass on the way to Bellingham? Use a map to look for natural or man-made features that you will you pass on your journey.

  • River Rede Restoration Work Starts at Smoutel Ford
    NEWS RELEASE RR04: 19 August 2019 River Rede Restoration Work Starts at Smoutel Ford River restoration work starts this week at Smoutel Ford, West Woodburn. Revitalising Redesdale Partnership will rebuild the historic bridleway across the Rede valley, allowing walkers and riders to enjoy trails between Monkridge Hill and Otterburn for the first time in decades. The river crossing at Smoutel Ford was lost because so much stone and gravel was removed from the river during the 1950s. Revitalising Redesdale’s work will reintroduce about 1400 tonnes of boulder and cobble sized stone to the river bed to create the Ford and associated features. The aim is to reinvigorate the river flow in this over-deepened part of the channel. This will provide healthier habitat for fish, river flies and our iconic Rede species, the endangered freshwater pearl mussel. The contractor team, led by Groundwork North East & Cumbria, have developed the project with strong support from local landowners. The project has been made possible with funding from The National Lottery Heritage Fund, the Environment Agency and Northumberland County Council, through an active partnership led by Natural England and Northumberland Wildlife Trust. This work will restore the Rede along one of the most degraded stretches where there are not enough gravels upstream to sustain the natural riverbed. As well as improving access for people across the river, this action will benefit river ecology beyond the 300m restored length. The Smoutel Ford project will be completed in October 2019 with further associated work planned for 2020. Additional riverside projects are taking place across the catchment as part of Revitalising Redesdale Programme 2018-2023.

  • FINAL-Redesdale-Interim-Report
    Interim evaluation report April1 2018-March 2020 2 Introduction The river Rede catchment is the wild heart of Northumberland. Stretching from the river’s source on the English-Scottish border to its confluence with the North Tyne at Redesmouth, this remote, picturesque landscape has been shaped by its often bloody and violent history. Once the lawless land of Border Reivers, Redesdale is now a rich wilderness characterised by peatlands, forestry and wooded valleys. As the Scheme’s Interpretation Strategy (2016) describes, “it is a land where history and geography collide - where people’s lives can be seen written into the landscape.” Biodiversity and nature thrive throughout the catchment yet it is still a fragile landscape, threatened by the pressures of land use/management and climate change. Over many years, the extensive and internationally significant upland blanket bogs have been depleted by moorland drainage, the river’s form and flow has been altered in many ways and meadow flower diversity has been reduced. The survival of native species such as fresh water pearl mussels, red squirrels and raptors hangs in the balance, dependent on ongoing protection or intervention. Large parts of the catchment are completely unexplored archaeologically and what is known about the history of Redesdale is limited. Despite this, the Historic Environment Record (HER) records more than 800 sites and buildings including sites which are or have the potential to become historic features in the landscape and destinations for both locals and visitors to explore. These include sites of prehistoric, Roman, Medieval, Post-Medieval and Twentieth Century significance. “The jewel in Redesdale’s crown is its history, for this is the valley which is richer in story and ballad than any other in England,” B Charlton (2007) Fewer than 2,000 people are resident in Redesdale and settlements within the landscape are small, historic sandstone villages with dispersed farmsteads.
