    Ibstone CE School Newsletter Ibstone, High Wycombe, Bucks, HP14 3XZ Telephone: 01491 638281 Email: [email protected] www.ibstoneschool.org.uk Headteacher: Mrs Louise Long Issue 31 – Friday 19th May 2017 Dear Families, I must start with a huge ‘Well Done!’ to our Year 2 children. They all worked so hard during their Key Stage 1 curriculum tests. We are all incredibly proud of you! It has been quite a mixed week in school. On Wednesday, Woodland Class spent the day at Frieth CEC School working with the Garsington School Project team and the Year 6 children from Frieth. I was impressed at how our children conducted themselves and their confidence shone through when working with the older children! I know they are looking forward to next Thursday when they get to perform to an audience. This morning we braved the weather and headed into the woods. The children enjoyed making a base camp using the logs we found and then worked incredibly hard in mixed groups to build dens. I know from several conversations at snack time, they are already planning what to do on our next trip to the woods. Other Information and Reminders Celebration Worship – Friday 26th May – Year 1 families As it is the disco straight after school, we will move our Celebration Worship to straight after drop off at 9am next week. Karate If your child takes part in our lunchtime karate club, we would like to invite you in for a demonstration of their skills on Friday 9th June at 12.30pm.

Background 1.1 Wycombe District Council is currently progressing work on preparing a new planning framework, including a new Local Plan for the District. This work comprises a range of studies to explore options for accommodating new development requirements. 1.2 As part of the Council’s technical work which has already taken place, particularly as part of the Local Plan Options Consultation in 2014, it has already become clear that the requirements for new development are likely to be considerably higher than previous targets. Consequently the Council is likely to be faced with significantly greater challenges in terms of finding options to meet these needs. 1.3 To put this into context, the Council’s Adopted Core Strategy was based on a housing target of 402.5 new homes per annum, a quantum which was capable of being delivered predominantly through brownfield development and the limited pool of greenfield reserve sites in the south of the District. The early indication of significantly higher growth levels in the District means, however, that for the first time in many years, there is the prospect of a significant level of greenfield development being required to be explored in the Local Plan, to help meet the District’s development requirements.
