  • Dear Mr Timms Application 18/506656/FUL
    Tuesday 5 February 2019 Dear Mr Timms Application 18/506656/FUL: For the Erection of a New Primary School and Special Educational Needs Secondary school with formation of a new access on Bearsted Road, together with associated car parking and drop off area, pedestrian access, drainage, areas for formal and informal play and landscaping works We write on behalf of the members and trustees of St John’s Church of England Primary School, Provender Way, Maidstone concerning the above application and wish to register our objections as under: Parts 1 and 2 forming the Site Options Appraisal Referenced December 2018 LJ/12539 These documents form the support for the Planning Application and therefore should be open to testing and challenge. Using the referencing in the report. 1 Introduction – Purpose and Context of the Report 1.1.1 The report is based on the assumption that it is imperative that a new 2FE Primary School and Special Educational Needs secondary school must share the same site. The needs of these types of schools are very different. The former is ideally located as close to the centre of the community it serves as possible with safe pedestrian access for young children and ideally parking for those who need to access the school by car, even though they may live within easy walking distance, because inevitably a significant number of parents/carers take children to school on their way to their work (ours is such a school and typically 40%+ of our children come to school by car). The latter cannot be within walking distance of the wider community it serves and therefore requires good clear road links from a wide area.
