The current capacity of the School is 990 and the proposed capacity will be 1350. The current number of pupils registered at the School is 986. The current admission number for the School is 198 and the proposed admission number will be 270. The proposals will be implemented by the LA with the approval of the Governing Body.

Signed: Martin Pratt – Corporate Director, Children & Learning Publication Date: 13th January 2013 11/5 APPENDIX A Proposals for the expansion of Stopsley High School These proposals have been published by Luton Borough Council and relate to Stopsley High School, St Thomas’ Road, Luton, LU2 7UX. Stopsley High School is a Foundation School maintained by Luton Borough Council. Implementation: The Government has introduced the Priority School Building Programme (PSBP) which will fund the rebuilding of schools in areas where pupil numbers are expanding and school buildings are in poor condition. Stopsley High School has been identified as one of 30 schools in the first phase of this programme. Under this programme it is proposed that the School should expand from a 990-place high school to a 1350-place school over a five-year period. Under these proposals the School’s admissions number would increase from 198 to 270 at the Year 7 intake point for intakes from September 2015. Objections & Comments: Any objections to, or comments on, the proposals should be put in writing and addressed to: Mrs Deborah Smith Planning & Admissions Officer 4th Floor Unity House 111 Stuart Street Luton, LU1 5NP The period for comments on, or objections to, the proposals is four weeks from the date of publication. The closing date for objections is therefore 10 February 2013. Alteration Description: The size and design of the new school building will be based on a standardised approach but will include: 64 classrooms and teaching spaces (general, design and technology, ICT, sciences, art, music, drama and PE) a large hall separate four court sports hall activity studio dining and social area library resource centre creative and music spaces Special Education Needs provision (replication of existing provision) sufficient space for staff and administration areas. 11/6 APPENDIX A Pupils will continue to use the current school building until the new school has been built. The existing building will be demolished when the new school building is in place. The construction of Stopsley High School will be subject to a competitive tendering process. The building contractor will be appointed by the Department for Education during 2013. The successful contractor will be responsible for undertaking a further public consultation on the design of the school building (involving parents, residents, interested members of the public and statutory bodies) prior to submitting a full planning application. School Capacity: The current capacity of Stopsley High School is: 990 The proposed capacity of Stopsley High School is: 1350 The current number of children on roll at Stopsley High School is: 988 Pupils are admitted up to the Published Admission Number, which is currently 198 pupils. Following the enlargement of the school premises, it is proposed to increase the School’s Published Admission Number to 270. This increased Admission Number will apply to Year 7 intakes intake from September 2015. It is not proposed to change the age range of the school. Implementation: The proposals for the expansion of the school premises will be implemented by Luton Borough Council. The implementation of the expansion is dependent on planning permission being granted. Objectives: The objective of this proposal is to increase the School’s capacity to enable the Published Admission Number to increase. The proposed expansion is necessary to ensure there are sufficient school places within Luton for the town’s growing pupil population. Consultation: All applicable statutory consultation requirements have been complied with. The following people/organisations were consulted before publication of these proposals: Governing Body of Stopsley High School Parents of pupils attending Stopsley High School School Staff and their Trade Unions Governing Bodies of Putteridge, Icknield and Ashcroft High Schools. Governing Bodies of St Matthew’s, Bushmead and Stopsley Primary Schools. Parents of pupils attending St Matthew’s, Bushmead and Stopsley Primary schools Luton’s MPs Ward Councillors 11/7 APPENDIX A Residents of St Thomas’ Road, Mixes Hill Road, Sunset Drive, Virginia Close, Clinton Avenue and Acorn Close. School Council at Stopsley High School All parties listed above were notified of the consultation and were advised to obtain a copy of the consultation document via the Council’s website or by collecting a hard copy of the document from the school office or at the evening information session. Hard copies of the consultation were also available from the Council, on request. A copy of the consultation document is attached to these proposals (see Appendix 1) together with a report setting out responses to the consultation (see Appendix 2). A public information evening was held at the school on 13th December 2012 where Council Officers, School Staff and Governors were available to answer queries. The vast majority of those who responded to the consultation welcomed the proposed enlargement. Project Costs: On 24 May 2012 the Department for Education confirmed that Stopsley High School would be included in the Priority School Building Programme (PSBP). This programme will fund the cost of these proposals (approximately £15 million). The cost of rebuilding the Special Educational Needs provision (approximately £150k) will be met from the Council’s allocation of Basic Need Funding. Need or demand for additional places: The pupil projections demonstrate that the town has a rising pupil population. There is currently acute pressure on school places in the primary sector. Pupil projections indicate that the secondary population will grow by 2,072 pupils between spring 2012 and September 2018 – this is a 17% growth in pupil numbers within six years. The pupil projections for Stopsley High School are set out below. Secondary School Projections 2012-2018 Nov Sep.13 Sep.14 Sep.15 Sep.16 Sep.17 Sep.18 Diff. % 12 2012- Increase 2018 Stopsley 985 1000 1025 1041 1092 1155 1214 232 24% High School The Council is proposing that the School expand to cater for the growing pupil population in the School’s catchment area and the enlarged number of pupils attending its main feeder schools. Expansion of Popular & Successful Schools: 11/8 APPENDIX A Luton Borough Council considers that the presumption for the expansion of successful and popular schools applies to these proposals as Stopsley High School is considered to be a popular & successful school as demonstrated by: GCSE results have generally been are in line with the national and LA average on main measures in recent years. In the last three years, the percentage of pupils achieving A*-C grades was above both the local and national averages. Value added is in line with expectations and has continued to improve over recent years. Value added for the percentage of pupils achieving A*-C grades has been significantly above expectations. Results at the school demonstrate improvement over time. Stopsley High School is popular in terms of parental preference. The school is consistently oversubscribed for the Year 7 intake and year groups are generally full. 11/9 APPENDIX A APPENDIX 1 Consultation on the Expansion of Stopsley High School November 2012 11/10 APPENDIX A Introduction 1. This paper sets out the Council’s proposal to enlarge Stopsley High School. It explains the rationale for expansion, details the decision making process and describes how to find out more information. Background 2. In 2009, all stakeholders were consulted on proposals to expand Stopsley High School and refurbish and enlarge the school buildings to accommodate 1350 pupils. This development was due to be funded by the Government’s Building Schools for the Future (BSF) programme; however, in July 2011 funding was withdrawn for this programme. Proposals and Rationale 3. The Government has introduced the Priority School Building Programme (PSBP) which will fund the rebuilding of schools in areas where pupil numbers are expanding and school buildings are in poor condition. Stopsley High School has been identified as one of 30 schools in the first phase of this programme. 4. Under this programme it is proposed that the School should expand from a 990-place high school to a 1350-place school over a five-year period. Under these proposals the School’s admissions number would increase from 198 to 270 at the Year 7 intake point for intakes from September 2015. This expansion is necessary to cater for the projected increase in pupil numbers. 5. The pupil projections set out in Table 1 below, demonstrate that the town has a rising pupil population.
