Clyde Gateway Annual Report 2009-2010 03 SECTION 1 Chair’s Report and Review I made the observation in last year’s annual report that Clyde Gateway had made good progress since its inception in December 2007 in what have been challenging economic circumstances. Twelve months on, and it is very pleasing to be able to say that the level of progress has increased substantially and we are now working up a considerable head of steam in our efforts to deliver a physical, social and economic transformation across the Clyde Gateway area. The contents of this latest Annual Report will give a measure of our achievements over the 12 months up to the end of March 2010. All of our partners – the Scottish Government, Scottish Enterprise, Glasgow City Council and South Lanarkshire Council – have continued to give truly fantastic backing to our 20-year plan to create 21,000 new jobs, construct 10,000 new homes, increase the population by 20,000 and deliver £1.5 billion of private sector investment. More importantly, the level of support given to us by local residents and those managing and operating businesses across Clyde Gateway is also stronger than ever, as evidenced by their endorsement of our work and efforts at our various consultation and community events. In saying that, I do not at all underestimate that an incredible amount of work still has to be carried out to ensure that communities such as Bridgeton, Dalmarnock, Rutherglen and Shawfield again make the sort of immense contributions to the local, regional and national economies for which they were famed in their heyday many decades ago. But at the risk of repeating myself from this time last year, with the imminent completion of the M74 Motorway, the investment in other new roads and infrastructure and the fact that the East End will play such a prominent role in Glasgow hosting the 2014 Commonwealth Games, everything is coming together to revive their fortunes and for the Clyde Gateway area to become an industrial and business powerhouse once again. It has again been a privilege to Chair a Board of Directors who share a passion for delivering change. Special thanks must be given to Councillor Chris Thompson, who in addition to being my vice-chair has also taken on the task of chairing Clyde Gateway Developments Limited (CGDL). Ian Manson and his entire team of talented and highly motivated staff also deserve mention for their hard work to ensure that Clyde Gateway really is taking a whole new approach to regeneration. I trust that you find the contents of this report interesting and that you will agree our work really is beginning to make a difference. Dr Robert Crawford August 2010 Main: Clyde Gateway at Oatlands. 04 Clyde Gateway Annual Report 2009-2010 05 SECTION 2 BEGINNING TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE Chief Executive’s Clyde Gateway Report Clyde Gateway is the name given to an area that includes a large part of the East End of Glasgow, including I have been fortunate enough to have worked for more than 25 years in a range of Bridgeton and Dalmarnock The vision of Clyde Gateway Urban jobs across planning, economic development, business growth, regeneration and plus Rutherglen and Shawfield Regeneration Company (GCURC) public/private partnerships, but none have given me such an incredible sense of pride in South Lanarkshire. established on 27 December 2007, is to than that of being Chief Executive of Clyde Gateway. create a dynamic and sought after city location, with a strong community, which It may sound like a cliché, but being so heavily involved in helping to shape and guide such unparalleled will attract major investment and change across so many historical communities is truly a dream job. establish itself as one of the foremost This is Clyde Gateway’s second annual report in which we set out our record over a 12 month period. places in the West of Scotland to live and Last year, there was a lot of information about the work that had been undertaken to establish Clyde work, supporting Glasgow’s ambition to Gateway and not so much on the sort of achievements that we believe will make a real difference in be a world class city-region.

The level of interest shown by developers point to exciting times To achieve this, we are wholly committed to working ahead, while a number of key decisions that have been taken in recent times, such as the funding to with all public, private, community and voluntary improve Dalmarnock Station, is a demonstration of the level of commitment and goodwill all of the organisations, locally, regionally and nationally, in a partners and other key organisations bring to the work of Clyde Gateway. joint effort to regenerate our historical communities. Finally, I would like to give my thanks and appreciation to every member of the Clyde Gateway team What we are setting out to deliver is on a scale and not just for the level of dedication and commitment they have shown, but for the innovative and at a level never seen before. We have repeatedly imaginative ways they have tackled the many different challenges that confront us on a daily basis as said since our inception that physical change on its we aim to make the East End of Glasgow and Rutherglen and Shawfield thrive again. own is not enough to achieve success. Social and economic change will be every bit as important, and Ian Manson people will be put at the very heart of our ambitious August 2010 plans. This means being proactive in seeking out new opportunities while listening and responding to local wishes and needs. It really is a whole new approach to regeneration. 06 Clyde Gateway Annual Report 2009-2010 07 Bridgeton Left: Tullis Street entrance before and after. Below: Bridgeton Cross April 2010. Opposite top: The Olympia building c.1936. Opposite bottom: Opening of Tullis Street Memorial Gardens. Built in 1875, the Grade A listed Bridgeton Umbrella is the most instantly recognisable structure to be found in the Clyde Gateway area. Located at the junction of London Road, Orr Street, Olympia Street, Dalmarnock Road, Main Street and James Street, the Umbrella has long been an important and symbolic part of the fabric of the local community. Thanks to a £1m plus investment from Clyde Gateway, this famous and historic landmark is being restored to its full glory, while the road layout and environment that surrounds it on Bridgeton Cross is undergoing a full transformation. Towering over the Umbrella is the imposing structure of the Olympia building. Situated on the corner of Orr Street, it opened in 1911 as the 2,000-seater Olympia Theatre of Varieties, but by 1924 it had found a fresh lease of life as a cinema.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Burgh Primary is one of 124 primary schools throughout South Lanarkshire Council. South Lanarkshire Council is the fifth largest authority in Scotland. It covers the following main areas; Clydesdale in the South which features extensive rural areas, Cambuslang, Rutherglen, Blantyre and Uddingston to the North as well as the towns of East Kilbride and Hamilton. The Council’s Plan Connect sets out the Council’s vision to improve the quality of life for all within South Lanarkshire. For Education Resources this means delivering services of the highest quality as well as striving to narrow the gap. It is about continually improving the services for everyone at the same time as giving priority to children, young people, families and communities in most need. The Resources Plan further builds on the commitment to improve the experience for children, young people and adults as they participate in learning or make use of the wide range of services within Education. The context for service delivery in Education Resources takes account of major national and local developments. These include a commitment to implement all aspects of the national programme, Curriculum for Excellence (CfE); a commitment to work in partnership with colleagues to meet the challenges of ‘Getting it Right for Every Child; and an awareness of the need to seek continuous improvement as we embark on a Journey to Excellence. Locally, the community plan, Stronger Together, and the ambitious outcomes for children within Education Resources’ framework of core policies help to inform the Resources Plan. The aims of South Lanarkshire Council, Education Resources, are shown on the back cover of the handbook.

Our agenda is aimed at providing the best possible learning experiences for all. Experiences which: • inspire learners to become successful, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors, meeting the needs of all; • transform learning across all our services, Learning Communities and establishments ensuring that our children and young people gain the necessary skills and qualifications that support their aspirations; and • strengthen communities, encouraging the highest of expectations and aspirations for all while reducing inequalities I believe that participation in physical education, physical activity and sport plays a unique role in supporting the aspirations of our children and young people and can change lives for the better. As we know, a high quality experience can have a positive impact on an individual’s health and wellbeing and provide many other benefits that last well beyond school life. Therefore, it is essential that the excellent work by our Active School Coordinators and school networks continues to thrive. We see clear benefits of this work for our children and young people as they gain opportunities to participate, lead and shape their involvement in physical activity. The PEPAS strategy that has been developed by Active Schools, Education Resources and sportscotland is an excellent example of close partnership working and its introduction has supported increased participation, engagement and involvement.
