Bishop Chavasse Primary School Section 10 Section 10 Consultation Report Bishop Chavasse Primary School Tonbridge Kent Prepared by Christine Bayliss For Tenax Schools Trust BACKGROUND The Tenax Schools Trust is a multi-academy trust led by the Ofsted-rated ‘outstanding’ Bennett Memorial Diocesan School in Tunbridge Wells. The Trust submitted a bid to the Department for Education in 2015 for a new primary school in Tonbridge. The rationale for the bid was threefold: to enable Tonbridge parents to have the choice of a Church of England Primary School as one does not currently exist in the Town; to cater for the rapid population growth and lack of sufficient places for reception aged children; and the need for more good and outstanding primary schools in the area. The bid promised a traditional primary education for 60 pupils in each year group underpinned by a Christian ethos. In terms of admissions, up to 25% of places (up to 15 places annually) will be allocated on the basis on parental attendance at a Church of England Church. The project is supported by Kent County Council as a key element of their strategy to meet demand for much needed primary places in Tonbridge. The bid by Tenax Schools Trust was approved by the Department for Education in spring 2015 and moved into the pre-opening stage immediately thereafter. The pre-opening stage involves securing the site, applying for planning permission to be followed by construction of the permanent building and, in this case, temporary facilities for the first year of operation. It also involves setting up and running an application process for prospective parents and recruiting the head teacher and key staff. The Education Funding Agency have secured land in Tudeley Lane adjacent to the new housing development at Somerhill Green which, subject to planning consent, will be the permanent site for the school. Planning consultants Cushman and Wakefield have recently undertaken a pre-planning application consultation with the neighbouring population. A planning application for full planning permission for temporary buildings and outline permission for the permanent building was submitted to Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council on 19 December. The school is due to open in September 2017 subject to the Secretary of State entering into a funding agreement with the Trust. Before doing this, she will want to be confident that the school will be good or better at its first Ofsted inspection, will be popular and financially viable. As part of that process the law requires Tenax Schools Trust to consult with the local community and other interested parties on their plans for the school. This consultation process is under the Section 10 Consultation (Section 10 of the 2010 Academies Act). CONSULTATION DESIGN and METHODOLOGY The Trust agreed that there should be five questions for consultation with prospective parents, relevant organisations and the wider community. The questions asked for views on the need for a new school, its location, admissions, curriculum and ethos, as well as agreement that the Secretary of State should enter into a funding agreement with the Trust to open and run the proposed school. 1. Do you believe there is a need for a new Church of England primary school serving children aged 4 – 11 in South Tonbridge? 2. Would you support the new school being built on the vacant plot of land on Tudeley Lane, Tonbridge, adjacent to the Somerhill Green Housing Development? 3. Do you support the proposed Admissions Policy for the Bishop Chavasse Primary School and that specifically up to 25% of places (up to 15 annually) will be allocated on the basis of parental attendance at a Church of England church? 4. Do you support the vision & ethos and curriculum offer of the Bishop Chavasse Primary School? 5. Do you agree the Secretary of State for Education should enter into a Funding Agreement with the Tenax Schools Trust to open and run the Bishop Chavasse Primary School. Information on the consultation was disseminated via a dedicated web page on the school website, a four page A5 consultation document (see ANNEX D) and an A5 double sided flyer. There were 161 web site hits during the consultation. Printed materials advertised a public meeting held on 12 December 2016 at the Angel Centre in Tonbridge along with summary information about the consultation. Around 500 of these leaflets were delivered door-to-door on the new Somerhill Green housing development and a neighbouring estate off Tudeley Lane. Formal consultation letters were sent from Ian Bauckham, CEO Tenax Schools Trust, to the Director of Children’s Services at Kent County Council and the Chief Executive of Tonbridge and Malling Borough Council. Emails were also sent to the 135 residents who had signed up to support the bid. Stakeholder consultation emails were sent to local councillors, schools, nurseries and churches directing them to complete the online questionnaire. See list at Annex A. A dedicated telephone line was set up for enquiries and respondents were able to submit a hard copy of their responses as well as the online provision. All of this was underpinned by extensive promotion to news outlets and via social media. An example of social media promotion included harnessing the support of the local MP, Tom Tugendhart, through his twitter account to promote the public meeting (illustrated in the photo opposite), news coverage in the local free paper the Tonbridge Times and further coverage in the Kent Courier. A dedicated Facebook account for the school was set up which also carried information and links to the web site. The consultation ran from 1 December 2016 through to 11 January 2017. A total of 171 responses were received, 105 electronically and 66 were made by completing hard copy questionnaires. As well as the public meeting held on 12 December 2016 (see photo illustration below), the consultation team visited and engaged with stakeholders at: • STEPS pre school based at St Stephen’s Church • Little Stars toddler group based at Tonbridge Baptist Church • Tonbridge Child Minders Association. • ‘Who lets the Dads Out’ – Christmas Party at St Stephens Church • Refresh session at St Stephen’s Church • Afternoon session at Sainsbury’s supermarket in central Tonbridge. • SUMMARY OF RESPONSES TO CONSULTATION A total of 171 consultation responses were received. The majority of respondents were ‘parents’ (98) followed by ‘individuals’ (64), ‘organisations’ (3) - and six ‘other’ respondents, including two blank responses. Respondant Types A parent An Individual Organisation Other 2% 4% 37% 57% The overwhelming majority of respondents’ feedback was positive. The following section looks at the responses to each question in detail. 1. Do you believe there is a need for a new Church of England primary school serving children aged 4 – 11 in South Tonbridge? Yes 148 86% No 10 6% Not Sure 13 8% The responses to question 1 on whether there is a need for a new Church of England Primary School were overwhelmingly in favour. Responses from parents were overall more positive about the need for a new Church of England Primary School with 90% answering ‘Yes’ and only 4% saying ‘No’. Comments from respondents included some from people who are concerned about the choice for local parents, referencing the fact that the school serving the area is undersubscribed and judged ‘Inadequate’ by Ofsted. “Actually, although I agree there needs to be a new primary I am not sure why there needs to be a new CofE one when the current one in the area is undersubscribed and not meeting Ofsted requirements”.1 However, the majority were very positive with comments such as “As a committed Christian, give that there are no CofE schools at present, this would be very welcome” and “Especially in the TN9 area, new housing and an influx of new young families have put great pressure on our existing schools”. 2. Would you support the new school being built on the vacant plot of land on Tudeley Lane, Tonbridge, adjacent to the Somerhill Green Housing Development? Yes 145 85% No 14 8% Not Sure 12 7% The overwhelming majority of respondents support the new school being built on land on Tudeley Lane adjacent to the Somerhill Green housing development. Supportive comments include “An ideal location within walking distance of many family homes” and “There is high demand for school places. Seems a sensible place to build”. Additional comments from respondents are set out in full in Annex B. 15% of respondents were either ‘Not Sure’ or answered ‘No’ to the question of whether the school should be built on Tudeley Lane. While many respondents thought that the proposed site was an ideal location, a small number took the opportunity to raise concerns about traffic and potential road safety issues. The main concern expressed was around parents dropping off and picking up children, congestion and parking on the new housing development. This issue was also raised by a small number of residents who attended the public consultation meeting. For example, a local residents asked “Although there will be a drop-off zone, it is unlikely that parents will drop young children off and leave them. We will be very concerned if people start parking along local roads; there might be inadvertent damage to property. How will the drop-off zone be managed?” The Trust representative replied “We will be staggering events such as parents evenings and start and end times of pre school and after school activities. These will have a positive impact on managing traffic and access to the school. We will likely have a managed station with a minimum of two staff who would be visible and would escort children to the school entrance”. A full record of the public meeting and the questions and answers are set out in Annex C 1 St Stephen’s Primary school is a community school and NOT a Church of England school, despite the name.

  • Tonbridge Castle and Its Lords
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 16 1886 TONBRIDGE OASTLE AND ITS LORDS. BY J. F. WADMORE, A.R.I.B.A. ALTHOUGH we may gain much, useful information from Lambard, Hasted, Furley, and others, who have written on this subject, yet I venture to think that there are historical points and features in connection with this building, and the remarkable mound within it, which will be found fresh and interesting. I propose therefore to give an account of the mound and castle, as far as may be from pre-historic times, in connection with the Lords of the Castle and its successive owners. THE MOUND. Some years since, Dr. Fleming, who then resided at the castle, discovered on the mound a coin of Con- stantine, minted at Treves. Few will be disposed to dispute the inference, that the mound existed pre- viously to the coins resting upon it. We must not, however, hastily assume that the mound is of Roman origin, either as regards date or construction. The numerous earthworks and camps which are even now to be found scattered over the British islands are mainly of pre-historic date, although some mounds may be considered Saxon, and others Danish. Many are even now familiarly spoken of as Caesar's or Vespa- sian's camps, like those at East Hampstead (Berks), Folkestone, Amesbury, and Bensbury at Wimbledon. Yet these are in no case to be confounded with Roman TONBEIDGHE CASTLE AND ITS LORDS. 13 camps, which in the times of the Consulate were always square, although under the Emperors both square and oblong shapes were used.* These British camps or burys are of all shapes and sizes, taking their form and configuration from the hill-tops on which they were generally placed.

He was not the only one. When the tall, thin teenager arrived outside the club’s headquarters, the queue was already a long one. From the Bishop’s Offices, it snaked along the lawn in front of the Anglo-Saxon castle that stood next to the Offices, down to the river, and along its banks to the High Street, from which the usual light traffic had been diverted. The pulsating mass of people gave the old town a human heartbeat. A group of Sikh football supporters wearing turbans added variety to the Kentish scene, as did a few Raelists in the kind of outfit people back in the 20th Century imagined people today would be wearing, though they could not have foreseen how youngsters would change the colours and patterns at will. Ahead of Lee, a woman sported a black burqa. Lee appreciated the way its soft fabric clung to her body, especially when the queue moved forward. Most folk, however, wore standard Christian garb, reflecting the identity of a club sponsored by the Church of England.

  • Lent, Holy Week and Easter
    Lent, Holy Week and Easter Music of Faith, Songs of Scripture Music and song have always been at the heart of Christian faith and worship. Throughout the scriptures the community of the faithful have responded to the divine by singing and making music upon instruments of all kinds. This Lent, we will be reflecting on the music of our faith and the songs of scripture, the psalms, as a means of bringing us closer to God. We journey to the cross accompanied by songs of lament which deepen our prayer and we greet the resurrection with joyful songs of praise and thanksgiving. Here at Ely Cathedral we are offering a wide range of worship opportunities for prayer and reflection in our Lent, Holy Week and Easter Programme. We are delighted to welcome inspiring preachers, among them Malcolm Guite, Stuart Townend, Megan Daffern and Rowan Williams. We will be accompanied on our journey by our Cathedral Choirs and musicians. We hope that you will feel able to engage with the story of Christ’s passion and resurrection in many and various ways; growing in holiness and deepening their faith as we journey together through the season of Lent. ‘This is our story, this is our song’ Shrove Tuesday | 13 February | 6.30pm The Big Pancake Party and Pancake Race With live music from Ely Cathedral Octagon Singers and Ely Cathedral Community Choir.
