  • Bristol Urban Potential Assessment: February 2018
    West of England Joint Spatial Plan Bristol Local Plan Review Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Photo: Kendall Kingscott Ltd. i Bristol Urban Potential Assessment Published February 2018 Summary Bristol has experienced sustained population growth since 2004 and has seen a high number of new homes completed over the same period. The vast majority of new homes delivered over this period have been on brownfield land, with only a small proportion being built on greenfield sites. Bristol City Council has carried out a thorough urban potential assessment which has established the capacity of the urban area to deliver around a further 12,400 homes by 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings. As well as a general citywide search for brownfield development potential, focused studies have been carried out of the potential from other sources of land, including safeguarded industrial land, undeveloped land, the conversion or redevelopment of city centre offices and higher density forms of development on existing Bristol Local Plan site allocations. The assessment was carried out over the period June 2015 to March 2016. Based on consistent density assumptions and considered constraints analysis, Bristol’s estimated capacity to accommodate new homes over the period to 2036 on sites of ten or more dwellings, above and beyond those already planned and forecast, is as follows: Source Approx potential homes Main citywide site search 6,150 Potential from underused industrial land 1,500 Potential from undeveloped land 1,000 Potential from city centre office sites 2,150 Uplift of site allocations 1,600 Total 12,400 In addition to the baseline capacity set out above, a number of locations have been identified in which land with potential for new homes is highly clustered, where interventions could help to bring forward a considerable additional supply of new homes.

  • On Your Doorstep Community News from Lawrence Weston Summer 2016
    Summer 2016 On Your Doorstep Community News from Lawrence Weston Summer 2016 Summer 2016 The Lawrence Weston Youth Centre has a face-lift “On Tuesday 14th June a team of 8 Finance Partners from TSB’s Keypoint office took time away from our day jobs to support Ambition Lawrence Weston and helping to repaint the front of the Youth Centre building. Everyone working for TSB is given 8 hours a year to get involved in their local area, to help their local community. Partners from Keypoint, Bradley Stoke dedicated their 60 hours to the local Youth Centre in Lawrence Weston. The youth centre is central to local commu- nity support work being carried out its important that this building looks and feels welcoming, ap- proachable and safe. We managed to paint the en- tire front of the building including frames in a vi- brant blue. This really lifted the look of the centre and will help in making all members of the commu- nity feel welcomed. It is brilliant to know that the time we’ve spent with Ambition Lawrence Weston has been useful and supported the charity in making improvements. Growing up in Shirehampton I am no stranger to the different community issues both are- as face. I am just glad to of been able to help a charity that is trying so hard to support all members of the community and make a difference. I would recommend anyone to get in touch with Mark at Ambition Lawrence Weston and volunteer to help the charity in any way you can.

  • The Geology of Clifton and Durdham Downs by Andrew Mathieson There
    The Geology of Clifton and Durdham Downs by Andrew Mathieson There are many accounts of the geology of the Avon Gorge, which is hardly surprising since it is nationally important for both the exposed rock sequence and the landform of the gorge itself, but much less has been written about that of the Downs, even though they have a number of special geological features. The two sites are very closely linked since most of the rocks seen in the Gorge also lie under the Downs. However there are several younger rocks which are only found on the Downs themselves, and these add greatly to our understanding of the geological history of the area. The Rock Succession The oldest group of rocks on the Downs is the Carboniferous Limestone, and this underlies most of the area. It is a thick sequence of some 760 m (2,500 ft) of rock, and is mostly made up of different types of limestone, but there are also dolomites, mudstones and sandstones. These all contain the fossil remains of brachiopod shellfish, corals and crinoids, clearly indicating that the rocks formed beneath the sea. The presence of corals and limestone suggest that the water was shallow and warm, and this is supported by studies of palaeomagnetism, which indicate that these rocks formed close to the equator. Radiometric evidence shows that they are between 359 to 326 million years old. The sequence of Carboniferous Limestone is divided into a series of units, which are mostly named after exposures seen along the Gorge (Kellaway and Welch, 1955). These units were created by the Geological Survey to replace a system of zones based on fossil corals and brachiopds (Vaughan, 1905) which, although revolutionary at the time, had been found to be difficult to use outside the Bristol area.

Their early history has been interpreted from a limited number of archaeological finds, and from Anglo Saxon charters and Medieval deeds. By comparison the modern history is more certain, and is supported by a particularly rich visual archive including numerous paintings, drawings and postcards. The recent history of Clifton and Durdham Downs is in essence the history of change to their immediate surroundings. Threatened by rapid expansion of the city in the 19th century, farsighted and timely protection in the public interest secured the Downs in perpetuity. As the size of the surrounding population increased beyond recognition, Bristol’s reliance on the Downs fundamentally evolved from agricultural need to social and recreational wants. Others have undertaken several detailed studies, notably those constituting the University of Bristol Avon Gorge Project (c1988).

  • Ofsted Report March 2020
    School report Inspection of Kingsweston School Napier Miles Road, Kingsweston, Bristol BS11 0UT Inspection dates: 4–5 March 2020 Overall effectiveness Good The quality of education Good Behaviour and attitudes Good Personal development Good Leadership and management Good Sixth-form provision Good Previous inspection grade Good What is it like to attend this school? Most pupils excel at this multi-site school. Pupils are happy and enjoy lessons and social times. Pupils benefit from curriculums precisely matched to their needs. Some have access to mainstream lessons and others to specialised learning environments. Across all sites, staff are skilled and caring. They make sure that pupils’ needs are met because they know pupils well. Pupils feel secure as a result. Pupils like the positive relationships they have with caring staff. Some pupils arrive following disjointed experiences of education. Others have significant barriers to learning because of their needs. Staff establish pupils’ needs and interests quickly. Most have high expectations of what pupils can achieve. They make lessons interesting. Pupils are positive about their work and learning. However, leaders have rightly identified that more could be expected of pupils at the secondary autism spectrum condition (ASC) site. Pupils behave well at social times and during lessons. Across all sites, behaviour is managed well. There are clear systems for promoting positive behaviour. Staff enhance this because they know pupils well and use this to motivate them. Individual behaviour plans are well considered. As a result, the school is a positive place to learn. Pupils’ behaviour improves significantly over time. Many go on to succeed in the next stage of their education, employment or training.
