Community facilities: Roger (coordinator), Steve. Objectives: • To improve the health services and health facilities for the parish. • To ensure adequate provision of, and improved access to, community and recreational facilities. • To ensure sufficient capacity for children living in Rothley to access primary and junior education within the parish Education a) Schools The Rothley Church of England Primary School (Academy) is located at Burrow Drive, Rothley, Leicestershire LE77RZ (http://www.rothley.leics.sch.uk). The school capacity is 420 children across 14 classes. At the time of writing (Oct 2016) there are 401 children enrolled. The admission policy was changed with effect from the Autumn term of 2016-2017 to bring in a cap of 60 per year group to ensure a maximum of 30 per class. Prior to moving to its new site on Burrow Drive the school admitted children from out of the catchment area but because of the growing number of families in Rothley it is expected to be full with catchment area children in the future. When the new school building was first proposed by the planners at Charnwood Borough Council there was a possible option to build four more classrooms on the site. However, funds were not available and the additional classrooms were not built. This is still a possible future option should the demand for places dictate it and if the funds were made available. There is no senior school in Rothley and students from the primary school go on to schools beyond the parish, as follows: • Rawlins 34 (Loughborough Rd, Quorn, Loughborough LE12 8DY) • De Lisle 12 (Thorpe Hill, Loughborough LE11 4SQ) • Cedars 4 (Wanlip Lane, Birstal, Leicester LE4 4GH) • Humphrey Perkins 2 (Cotes Rd, Barrow upon Soar, Loughborough LE12 8JU) Some concern was expressed at a consultation event that the present school is not large enough to cope with the anticipated demand from new housing developments. -
