  • Report on Core Areas of Work
    Formatted APPENDIX A - REPORT ON CORE AREAS OF WORK Carriageway Resurfacing Programme 1. Luton‟s highway network is an essential communication link that serves almost everyone everyday of the week and for a wide variety of reasons from simply visiting friends and relatives to vital business deliveries. Roads are an extremely valuable asset and in Luton their Gross Replacement Value is currently £470.25m. 2. In 2011/12 we delivered 33 resurfacing schemes and spent c. £1,500,000 of capital and revenue funding. However, with another severe winter in 2010/11 many roads had deteriorated further with the long period of freeze/thaw leading to the accelerated break- up of carriageway surfaces, with extensive cracking, crazing and potholes. 3. In addition in March 2011 the Department for Transport allocated £248,006 of Winter Pothole Funding to LBC following severe winter weather. This was used for large area road patching with over 28 roads treated. 4. Weather predictions for future years indicate an increasing trend for more exceptional weather conditions resulting in further pressure on already reducing maintenance budgets. Highway maintenance is increasingly a matter of managing the deterioration of assets. 5. The classified road (A, B & C roads) network is assessed annually using nationally developed criteria and the unclassified network is assessed every two years. Figures supplied to government show that we are currently only spending half of what would be required to maintain Luton‟s roads in their current condition. 361 resurfacing schemes have been identified following carriageway condition surveys of the road network. 6. Based upon results of the assessments, and referrals from area Highway Inspectors, Highway Services has developed a programme of work for carriageways which need immediate and significant improvement.

However, I would like to thank students, parents and staff for all their support during the inspection process – it is hugely appreciated and I know that inspectors got an accurate view of our school.

They have all worked exceptionally hard this year and deserve every success. It will be sad to see this year group leave as they have contributed so much to the development of the school. During this term staff have already begun thinking about next year. As I am sure you are aware, there are many many changes that the Government is bringing in from September. One of the most significant is a new national curriculum. Our staff will be planning and training during the course of this term so that we are well prepared for September.

  • Secondary School Expansion Proposals Consultation Response Form - November 2009

The schools identified for expansion are: • Ashcroft High School • Cardinal Newman Catholic School • Lealands High School • Stopsley High School • Challney High School for Boys • Denbigh High School • Icknield High School • Putteridge High School • Woodlands Secondary School (Special) Methodology o A formal consultation period ran from 9 November to 11 December 2009 during which a series of public consultation meetings were held to provide more information. o The Council was seeking the views of parents, staff, governing bodies and residents on the expansion proposals. o A copy of the Secondary School Expansion Proposal Document and questionnaire were available from the named schools and the Council’s website. Results o In total 46 questionnaires were returned, 26 online surveys, 12 paper surveys, and 8 letters and emails. o Comments were made regarding all of the 9 expanding schools but the majority of responses related to Icknield High School (41%) and Challney High School for Boys (33%). o The majority of respondents object to the Secondary School Expansion proposals.

Year 11 students have just completed their mock exams and their attitudes and behaviour during this stressful period proved to be excellent.

These have proved to be popular with parents and students and helped us to monitor the relationship between attitudes and progress.
