The Study was overseen by a Steering Group comprising officers of the respective authorities. 1.2 The overall aim of the Study was to assess the extent to which the land within the Greater Manchester Green Belt performs against the purposes of Green Belts, as set out in paragraph 80 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF): • to check the unrestricted sprawl of large built-up areas; • to prevent neighbouring towns merging into one another; • to assist in safeguarding the countryside from encroachment; • to preserve the setting and special character of historic towns; and • to assist in urban regeneration, by encouraging the recycling of derelict and other urban land. 1.3 The NPPF attaches great importance to Green Belts and stresses that their essential characteristics are ‘openness and permanence’. It also advises that, once established, Green Belt boundaries should only be altered in exceptional circumstances through the preparation or review of a local plan. 1.4 The broad extent of the Green Belt in Greater Manchester was established in the 1981 Greater Manchester Structure Plan and detailed boundaries were introduced in the Greater Manchester Green Belt Local Plan which was adopted in 1984. A full assessment of the Green Belt boundaries in Greater Manchester has not been undertaken since the original boundaries were adopted in 1984, although there have been alterations through individual Local Authority development plans where exceptional circumstances have required amendments, or where additional land was added to the Green Belt through Local Plans in the 1980’s and 1990’s. 1.5 The aim of this Green Belt Assessment is therefore to provide the Greater Manchester Authorities with an objective, evidence-based and independent assessment of how Manchester’s Green Belt contributes to the five purposes of Green Belt, as set out in national policy. It also examines the case for including within the Green Belt potential additional areas of land that currently lie outside it. The Study does not advise on the suitability or potential of land in Great Manchester for development. It also does not consider whether ‘exceptional circumstances’ exist or make any recommendations relating to the alteration or review of Green Belt boundaries. 1.6 There is an important difference between a Green Belt Assessment, which assesses the relative performance of the Green Belt, and a Green Belt Review, which looks at the need for areas to be removed or added to the Green Belt (for example to accommodate development). A Green Belt Review requires judgements to be made about the amount and location of land that should be added to or removed from the Green Belt, and is informed by a Green Belt Assessment as well as other planning issues. This Study is the former - a Green Belt ‘Assessment’. 1 Bolton MBC, Bury MBC, Manchester City Council, Oldham MBC, Rochdale MBC, Salford CC, Stockport MBC, Tameside MBC, Trafford MBC and Wigan MBC. 1 1.7 The outputs of the study, alongside other assessments will form a component of the evidence base informing the preparation of the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework (GMSF). This is a joint plan to manage the supply of land for housing

    National Society Statutory Inspection of Anglican and Methodist Schools Report Broadbottom Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School Mottram Road, Broadbottom, Longdendale, Hyde. SK14 6BB Previous SIAS grade: Outstanding Current inspection grade: Outstanding Diocese: Chester Local authority: Tameside Date of inspection: 16 June 2016 Date of last inspection: 5 April 2011 School’s unique reference number: 106227 Headteacher: Esther Bland Inspector’s name and number: Anne B. Woodcock 445 School context The school serves the mixed socio-economic community of Broadbottom in the Longdendale Valley. All of the 108 pupils are of White British heritage. Most live in Broadbottom. The proportion of pupils known to attract the pupil premium grant is average. The school supports an average proportion of children with additional needs. The headteacher became the executive headteacher in September 2014, when she was appointed to lead Mottram Church of England Primary school in the neighbouring village. Her time is split equally between both schools. The distinctiveness and effectiveness of Broadbottom as a Church of England school are outstanding The strong, creative leadership of the headteacher, ably supported by dedicated staff and governors, inspires and drives all aspects of church school improvement. Pupils’ outstanding behaviour and attitudes to life and learning are clearly attributed to the school’s mission statement and their understanding of core Christian values. The explicitly expressed Christian values of forgiveness and love nurture and support all members of the school family. The strong, purposeful and mutually beneficial links with the church make a very significant contribution to the school’s Christian character and to the spiritual growth of pupils and staff.

    Housing Land Availability Study Adjusted to March 2008 Development and Regeneration Department Planning Division– Spatial Planning Team 1 Current Housing Land Commitment Adjusted to March 2008 Background 1) This note updates the housing land position relating to the situation at the 31st March 2008 and considers the distribution of development land, provides information on new planning permission ns, and assesses the balance between private and housing association provision. It also provides detailed information relating to dwellings completed in the past year. Housing Land Requirements & Supply 2) Planning Policy Statement 3: Housing (PPS 3) was published in November 2006 with an objective to ensure that the planning system delivers a flexible, responsive supply of land, reflecting the principles of “Plan, Monitor, Manage”. From April 2007 Local Planning Authorities are required to identify sufficient specific and deliverable sites to ensure a rolling 5-year supply of housing and demonstrate the extent to which existing plans already fulfil the housing requirement. To be deliverable sites must be: available, suitable and achievable in the next 5 years and there is also a requirement to demonstrate a 15 year supply. 3) To address this the Local Planning Authority is required to undertake an annual Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment (SHLAA). The first SHLAA for Bolton was commenced in December 2007 by consultants Roger Tym & Partners and the results from this will be published in the summer 2008 including a 5 and 15 year housing supply figures. 4) The SHLAA replaces the former annual Housing Land Availability Study that updated the housing land position in the Borough and reported on the distribution of development land, provided information on new planning permissions and dwelling completions.
