  • Thecommunityplan
    EAST AYRSHIRE the community plan planning together working together achieving together Contents Introduction 3 Our Vision 3 Our Guiding Principles 4 The Challenges 8 Our Main Themes 13 Promoting Community Learning 14 Improving Opportunities 16 Improving Community Safety 18 Improving Health 20 Eliminating Poverty 22 Improving the Environment 24 Making the Vision a Reality 26 Our Plans for the next 12 years 28 Our Aspirations 28 2 Introduction Community planning is about a range of partners in the public and voluntary sectors working together to better plan, resource and deliver quality services that meet the needs of people who live and work in East Ayrshire. Community planning puts local people at the heart of delivering services. It is not just about creating a plan or a vision but about jointly tackling major issues such as health, transport, employment, housing, education and community safety. These issues need a shared response from, and the full involvement of, not only public sector agencies but also local businesses, voluntary organisations and especially local people. The community planning partners in East Ayrshire are committed to working together to make a real difference to the lives of all people in the area. We have already achieved a lot through joint working, but we still need to do a lot more to make sure that everybody has a good quality of life. Together, those who deliver services and those who live in our communities will build on our early success and on existing partnerships and strategies to create a shared understanding of the future for East Ayrshire.

    Guidance Bellsbank Primary School and Early Childhood Centre HANDBOOK 2016-17 1 Contents Director’s message Headteacher’s message Establishment ethos, vision and values Establishment information Establishment security Establishment calendar Staff information Establishment improvement Pre-birth to 3 (ECC only) Curriculum 3-18 Assessment and reporting Policies and procedures Additional Support for Learning Transition Parental involvement Learning community Wider community links Other information Disclaimer 2 A Message from the Head of Education Thank you for taking the time to read this handbook. In writing the following pages, colleagues are attempting to do two things. The first is to provide you with the information you need so that your child can be given access to all of the services and facilities to which they are entitled. The second purpose is to seek and promote a genuine partnership with you as the main responsible adult in your child’s life. Without that partnership it will not be possible for your daughter or son to take maximum advantage of their education and so to fulfil their potential. Quite simply, we want the best for your child in exactly the same way you do. My invitation to you is that should you have any doubts about your child’s progress or their entitlement to a service, then you should not hesitate to contact the school or early childhood centre. You are entitled to an explanation of anything that is of concern to you and staff will be very pleased to assist you with an answer to any question you have. All we would ask is that you do this with the courtesy that you yourself would expect.

  • East Ayrshire Council’S Planning and Economic Development Service Is Pleased to Submit Its Eight Planning Performance Framework Which Covers the 2018/19 Period
    1 Planning Performance Framework Annual Report 2018-2019 Planning and Economic Development Service The Opera House, 8 John Finnie Street, 1 Kilmarnock, KA1 1DD 2 Foreword by Councillor Jim Roberts Chair of the Planning Committee As with my introduction last year to our PPF, I remain pleased to report clear continuing performance improvement across a range of markers for Development Management, in particular in relation to decision-making timescales and the reduction in legacy cases. Officers in Development Management are also making increased use of Processing Agreements particularly with Local Developments to work in collaboration with Developers. Our team retain their continued ambition to continually improve performance across all markers. The last year has been an exciting and busy one for our Development Planning and Regeneration Section. Good progress has been made with the Minerals Local Development Plan; the Examination has now been completed and we are anticipating adopting the Plan in October 2019. Following on from successful Kilmarnock, Cumnock and Galston Conservation Area Regeneration Schemes, earlier this year we received the great news that a Mauchline CARS will be going ahead. This will help to really enhance and make the most of the town’s historic environment and encourage new economic activity. Placemaking continues to be a focus of our work and, working in partnership with our communities, 2 further placemaking plans for Ochiltree and Catrine have been adopted as supplementary guidance. The team is also busy working on the development phase of an HLF funded Landscape Partnership for the Coalfield Communities and is leading on the preparation of the business case for the National Energy Research Demonstrator in Cumnock, an innovative and exciting project within the Ayrshire Growth Deal.

  • Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation 2016 0-5% Most Deprived Datazones in East Ayrshire
    Agenda Item 6 EAST AYRSHIRE COMMUNITY PLANNING PARTNERSHIP BOARD SPECIAL MEETING– 17 NOVEMBER 2016 SCOTTISH INDEX OF MULTIPLE DEPRIVATION (SIMD) 2016 Report by the Depute Chief Executive and Chief Financial Officer (Economy and Skills), East Ayrshire Council PURPOSE OF REPORT 1. To present to the Community Planning Partnership (CPP) Board the high-level results of the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation (SIMD) 2016 published by Scotland’s Chief Statistician on 30 August 2016. BACKGROUND 2. The SIMD is the Scottish Government’s official tool for identifying small area concentrations of multiple deprivation across Scotland. 3. The SIMD ranks small areas (datazones) from most deprived (ranked 1) to least deprived (ranked 6,976). Use of the SIMD will often focus on the datazones below a certain rank, for example, the 5%, 10%, 15% or 20% most deprived datazones in Scotland. 4. The Scottish Government has used this method to track multiple deprivation since the first Index of Multiple Deprivation in 2004 and, taken together, the five indices (2004, 2006, 2009, 2012 and 2016) provide a series of snapshots in time of the concentration of multiple deprivation across the country. 5. The information is relevant for the targeting of policies and resources aimed at tackling areas where there is a concentration of multiple deprivation. HOW SIMD IS CONSTRUCTED 6. SIMD 2016 is built up as follows: Scotland is split into 6,976 datazones, with roughly standard populations of 500 to 1,000 household residents. There are 38 indicators of deprivation, which are grouped into seven different domains. Indicators are used to measure the different characteristics of deprivation in each datazone, including pupil performance, travel times to the GP, crime, and unemployment, among many others.

  • Void Management
    EAST AYRSHIRE COUNCIL HOUSING COMMITTEE – 31 JANUARY 2001 VOID MANAGEMENT Director of Homes and Technical Services 1. PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To advise members of progress made in improving voids administration performance and to submit proposals for dealing with the problem of low demand housing within specific communities in East Ayrshire. 2. BACKGROUND 2.1 Housing Committee of 8 November 2000 approved a short term action plan for improving voids administration performance and a series of medium and long term proposals as part of a comprehensive strategy for dealing with the problems of low demand housing in East Ayrshire. Members also noted that further reports on progress would be submitted by the Director of Homes and Technical Services on a regular basis. 3.0 IMPROVING VOIDS ADMINISTRATION PERFORMANCE 3.1 The department has acted quickly to implement the agreed action plan and there is already some evidence to suggest the success of actions taken to improve day to day voids performance. Particular effort has been made by area teams in concentrating resources on houses which can be easily let and in reviewing the letting process to identify issues which are obstructing improved service performance. These have included policies and procedures which, for example, restrict access to council house waiting lists for those who owe monies to this or other Councils or who are applying to be re-housed in East Ayrshire from out-with the area. 3.2 Revised management guidance has now been issued to staff which puts the emphasis on accepting applicants onto the waiting lists and establishing debt repayment schedules with those applicants who owe either rent, former tenants arrears, or council tax arrears to East Ayrshire Council.
