  • School Street’ Initiative: Greyfriars Road Closure
    Coleham Primary School For every child, an Excellent Education Greyfriars Road, Shrewsbury, Shropshire, SY3 7EN T: 01743 362668 E: [email protected] E: [email protected] Headteacher: Ms C Jones W: www.colehamprimary.co.uk Deputy Headteacher: Mr T Larkham Twitter: @colehamprimary th 16 November 2020 ‘SCHOOL STREET’ INITIATIVE: GREYFRIARS ROAD CLOSURE Dear Parents and Carers, We are excited to announce that, after a number of weeks liaising with Shropshire Council, we will be the first school in Shropshire to operate a School Street outside our school. A School Street is a national initiative whereby a road outside a school is temporarily closed to vehicle traffic at drop off and collection times. The aim is to make the space outside of school safer for parents and families, and to help make the air cleaner. This will begin from Monday 30th November 2020. Why we want to run a School Street For some time, we have been concerned about the safety of our community outside the school gates at drop off and collection. Greyfriars Road is often very busy at these times with traffic moving at speed to cut through and lorries making deliveries. These issues are exacerbated somewhat by inconsiderate parking blocking pavements and narrowing the carriageway, and also blocking the local businesses’ loading bay. Since the first lockdown and the need for social distancing, this problem of space has become even more pertinent: the pavements outside the school are far too small to accommodate more than 400 families at these busy times. The implementation of the School Street will greatly improve the safety at these times and make the experience of the school run a more pleasant one for many people.

Shropshire Council is working to make Shropshire a great place to live, learn, work, and visit – we want to innovate to thrive. To make that ambition a reality, we need to understand what our towns and communities need in order to make them better places for all. Our Place Plans – of which there are 18 across the county – paint a picture of each local area, and help all of us to shape and improve our communities. Place Plans are documents which bring together information about a defined area. The information that they contain is focussed on infrastructure needs, such as roads, transport facilities, flood defences, schools and educational facilities, medical facilities, sporting and recreational facilities, and open spaces. They also include other information which can help us to understand local needs and to make decisions.

  • The Shropshire Enlightenment: a Regional Study of Intellectual Activity in the Late Eighteenth and Early Nineteenth Centuries
    The Shropshire Enlightenment: a regional study of intellectual activity in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries by Roger Neil Bruton A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham January 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. Abstract The focus of this study is centred upon intellectual activity in the period from 1750 to c1840 in Shropshire, an area that for a time was synonymous with change and innovation. It examines the importance of personal development and the influence of intellectual communities and networks in the acquisition and dissemination of knowledge. It adds to understanding of how individuals and communities reflected Enlightenment aspirations or carried the mantle of ‘improvement’ and thereby contributes to the debate on the establishment of regional Enlightenment. The acquisition of philosophical knowledge merged into the cultural ethos of the period and its utilitarian characteristics were to influence the onset of Industrial Revolution but Shropshire was essentially a rural location. The thesis examines how those progressive tendencies manifested themselves in that local setting.
