Background and Context 1.1 After decades of depopulation in areas across the city the population of Glasgow is growing again. Over the next decade the primary age population is predicted to rise between 13 and 18%. 1.2 The Greater Pollok area of the city has over recent years benefitted from significant housing developments and the resulting increase in demand for primary school places. This demand is forecast to increase further as more new housing is released over the coming decade. 1.3 A summary of the current capacity and projected pupil rolls 2012 to 2023 for the non denomination primary schools within the Greater Pollok area is noted below in Table 1.

The 4Rs Strategy represents the 4 key challenges facing the Council over the coming decade, namely; Right Schools: Quality and Condition Right Size: Capacity to meet current and future needs Right Place: Serving the local community Right Time: Future proofing to meet demand 1.6 To support the Strategy the Council has committed £250m over a 5 year period to invest in the school estate. 2. Assessment of Non Denominational Primary School Provision in the Greater Pollok area 2.1 An overall assessment of non denominational primary schools within the Greater Pollok area against the 4Rs criteria is noted below. 2.2 School Condition 2.2.1 Ashpark, Cleeves and Crookston Castle Primary Schools are all new building primary schools delivered as part of the Council’s Pre12 Strategy. They are all of very high quality with a full range of facilities and opportunities to meet the needs of children. 2.2.2 Darnley Primary School is rated in poor condition and is currently being upgraded as part of the 4Rs investment plan. 2.2.3 Gowanbank Primary is in poor condition and beyond its economic life. Consequently it is proposed to establish a new Gowanbank Primary School as part of a new campus serving the Greater Pollok area. Not only will this address the condition of the existing building but support the demand for new housing scheduled over the coming years. The proposal for a new campus, incorporating Gowanbank Primary School, forms part of a separate consultation exercise running parallel to the proposals contained in this paper. 2.3 School Capacity 2.3.1 Pupil Roll Projection Methodology 2.3.2 Planning for the demand for future school places is reviewed annually. Future pupil rolls are predicted taking into account the following factors: x birth rates in Glasgow x housing needs assessments contained in both strategic and local plans x migration of children into and out of Glasgow x the progression of children through each stage (P1 to P6) x the effects of placing requests (parental choice) 2.3.3 Currently Ashpark Primary School is operating at 55% occupancy. However, over the next 10 years the pupil roll is forecast to increase steadily to its maximum capacity. 2.3.4 The projected pupil roll for Cleeves Primary School follows a similar pattern as Ashpark with the current occupancy level of 68% predicted to exceed its capacity by 2020. 2.3.5 Crookston Castle Primary School is currently undergoing investment to increase its long term capacity. As a result of this investment capacity will increase from 609 to 675, more than adequate to support predicted pupil roll increases over the coming decade. 2.3.6 In contrast, the pupil roll for Darnley Primary School is predicted to drop from its current occupancy level of 80% to 49% by 2013. 2.3.7 Currently Gowanbank Primary School has a very low occupancy level of 29% although this is predicted to rise to 56% by 2023, based on the capacity of the existing building. 2.4 Current Catchment Areas 2.4.1 There is significant pupil roll growth forecast within the Greater Pollok area over the next decade with Ashpark and Cleeves Primary Schools in particular reaching maximum capacity whilst Darnley, Crookston Castle and Gowanbank Primary Schools will retain significant capacity. 2.4.2 As a consequence it is proposed to review the existing catchment areas to ensure that there is a more equitable spread of capacity and flexibility for non denomination primary school places across the Greater Pollok area. 3. The Proposed Catchment Area Changes 3.1 Appendices 1 and 2 provide an overview of the current and proposed non denominational primary school catchment areas for the Greater Pollok area. Appendices 3 to 13 provide details of the existing and proposed catchment areas for each school. 3.2 It is proposed that the current shared catchment area between Darnley and Ashpark Primary School be solely within the catchment area of Darnley. This area is within Nitshill Road to the north, the boundary with East Renfrewshire to the east and south and Corselet Road to the west. 3.3 It is proposed that the current area of Cleeves Primary School catchment, south and east of Parkhouse Road will be transferred to Darnley Primary School catchment area. 3.4 It is proposed that the area of Cleeves Primary School’s catchment within Nitshill Road to the north and east, the railway line to the south and Levern Water to the west, be transferred to Gowanbank Primary School catchment area. This area will overlook the location of the proposed site of the new Gowanbank Primary School. 3.5 The Cleeves Primary School catchment area to the east of the M77 motorway is proposed to transfer to Ashpark Primary School’s catchment area. 3.6 The Gowanbank Primary School catchment area to the east of the M77 motorway is proposed to transfer to Ashpark Primary School’s catchment area. 3.7 It is proposed that the current shared catchment area between Gowanbank and Crookston Castle Primary Schools around and east of Crookston Road be solely within the catchment area of Crookston Castle Primary School. 3.8 The consequences on pupil roll projections and school capacities as a result of these proposed changes are detailed in Table 2 below. Table 2 Consequences of Proposed Catchment Area Changes Census Rolls Projected Rolls Establishment 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 Capacity Ashpark Primary School 261 268 290 325 341 366 394 412 424 424 424 422 490 Ashpark Primary School Occupancy 53% 55% 59% 66% 70% 75% 80% 84% 87% 87% 87% 86% Cleeves Primary School 269 276 290 295 311 313 325 333 334 335 335 333 408 Cleeves Primary School Occupancy 66% 68% 71% 72% 76% 77% 80% 82% 82% 82% 82% 82% Crookston Castle Primary School 479 489 507 522 524 521 524 531 535 537 538 537 675 Crookston Castle Primary School Occupancy 79% 80% 83% 77% 78% 77% 78% 79% 79% 80% 80% 80% Darnley Primary School 285 303 317 332 338 344 332 332 338 343 348 353 380 Darnley Primary School Occupancy 75% 80% 83% 87% 89% 91% 87% 87% 89% 90% 92% 93% Gowanbank Primary School 123 119 128 135 150 158 171 185 200 201 202 203 422 Gowanbank Primary School Occupancy 29% 28% 30% 32% 36% 37% 41% 44% 47% 48% 48% 48% 4. Educational Benefit Statement of the Proposals 4.1 If no action is taken to alter catchment areas, over time, an imbalance in occupancy levels across schools will emerge with Cleeves and Ashpark Primary Schools operating at full capacity whilst Darnley and Gowanbank Primary Schools will operate at a high level of under occupancy.

I was lured to Renfrewshire by its wealth of outdoor amenities and great transport links to the rest of the country: in short, living here offers the best of both worlds the perfect escape into magnificent countryside and the chance to reconnect with throngs of people for work or for socialising! Situated on the south of the River Clyde and to the south-west of Glasgow, the LBAP area comprises coastal lowlands, rolling farmland, open moorland and stunning views. My work as a journalist might take me all over the world but it is always a joy to come home here because of the fantastic resources the region has to offer particularly for someone like me with a passion for the outdoors. My whole family are committed users of the local countryside from my partner who rows at Castle Semple Loch to Baxter, my large, lolloping dog who is a familiar figure on the Glasgow-Irvine cycle track and in the community woodlands at Locherwood. Over the last few years, I have also had the honour of working alongside the rangers at Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park on a number of environmental initiatives combining both work and pleasure! The area offers a wide variety of natural interest within easy reach of a significant concentration of population.

  • Dwarf Shrub Heaths Are Recognised As Being of Birch and Rowan)
    Current Status - UK and Local Ecology and Management Lowland heathland is a priority for nature conservation because it is a rare and threatened habitat. Typically heathlands support a range of other habitats The UK supports one fifth of the international total of this habitat. There is also an action plan for including acidic grasslands, mires and flushes (including rush Upland heathland, estimated to be in excess of 2 million hectares in Scotland; however declines of pastures) and scrub (notably gorse) or scattered trees (e.g. over 20% since the 1940’s have been estimated. Dwarf shrub heaths are recognised as being of birch and rowan). Heather (Calluna vulgaris) and blaeberry international importance because of their restriction to the western seaboard of Europe. (Vaccinium myrtillus) are the main shrubby dominants, but a number of grassland species are also to be found such as In the LBAP Partnership area there are a number of heathlands ranging in scale and type. The Sheep’s Fescue (Festuca ovina), Wavy Hair-grass (Deschampsia extensive moorland of the Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park is an obvious key area of extremely high flexuosa), Tormentil (Potentilla erecta) and Heath Bedstraw regional importance, having escaped other pressures of land use management in recent years such (Galium saxatile) with a range of bryophytes (mosses and as forestry and intensive farming.

  • The Curling Stone
    RLHF Journal Vol.17 (2013) 7. The Case of the Proletarian Priests Sir Robert Croc and the Hospital of St Mary Magdalen at Cowglen Alan Steel All the secondary sources which mention the lost, nameless hospital established by Sir Robert Croc for the ‘infirm brothers’ of the priory of Paisley follow the following account, written by George Chalmers in his monumental Caledonia almost two hundred years ago: ‘(t)he only ancient hospital that can be distinctly traced in this shire...is one which was founded for infirm men before the end of the twelfth century by Robert Croc...who settled at and gave the name to Croc's-toun (sic), which in after times was called Crukstoun or Crookston..... This hospital and its chapel appear to have stood on the west side of Levern Water, between old (sic) Crookston and Neilston. Of the subsequent history and ultimate fate of this establishment nothing is known' 1. In fact, the location and name of the hospital are quite easy to trace. Two 13th century documents tell us that the centre of Sir Robert’s estate lay neither at Neilston nor at the impressive earthwork at the later Crookston Castle, but within a set of clausa [enclosures] at Cuglin, later Cowglen Castle and ultimately the farm of East Cowglen 2. Another item in the muniments of the Maxwells of Pollok, an estate plan of 1741, provide us with the name of the hospital and the layout of its lands, all adjacent to Sir Robert’s modest castle 3. The place-names in Figure 23 give us the location of the hospital.
