Space-does not permit the inclusion of every small project financed CC) since the Council's inception in 1964, but profiles are given on all projects whose work was finished CO before June 1972 and which have published reports or material that is now available to the public. C) Five projects-financed wholly by the Nuffield Foundation but which link closely with the work of Schools Council projects have also been included for information. C21 These profiles are intended as a brief introduction to the work of the Council's research and develop- ment projects. There is always a danger in publishing such information that it will quickly become out-of-date and inaccurate, and we have tried to strike a balance between giving a lot of information of a somewhat ephemeral nature on the one hand, and giving sufficient detail of aims, objectives, procedure and materials on the other. The project profiles I ave been arranged in the order given in Index 1. They have been grouped under twelve broad subject headings:English, Humanities, Languages, Creative Studies, Mathematics, Science, Inter-relatA studies, Special Education, Welsh, School and Community, School organisation and Resources, and Examinations.Within these groups, projects are arranged according to their reference number and going from primary up to secondary. The first two letters of the reference number represent the subject group, the first two numbers the lowest age of the children for whom the project is intended, and the third and fourth its chronological order. Thus the first humanities project for children aged eight and upward, Social Studies 8-13, is HU 08 01, and Moral Education 8-13, the most recent project in this subject group and age range is HU 08 04. A complimentary set of the profiles is being sent to all Local Education .%uthori'cies, HMIs, teachers' centres, colleges, departments and institutes of education. Additional copies are available from the Schools Council at a cost of 50p (70p including package and-postage), (75p overseas), although as the information on them is not calyright there is no objection to sheets being pt.otocopied locally by teachers' centres or schools. It is intended to update the sheets annually, and any suggestions, corrections or amendments for the next edition should please be sent to Mrs Gillian Box at the Schools Council. Readers wishing to know more about any research or development project, or wishing to inspect published materials, films or research reports are invitee to contact the Schools Council Project Information Centre, 160 Great Portland Street, London WIN 6LL. The Centre is open to visitors each weekday from 10.30 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. Please note that orders for publications referred to in the profiles should be placed through the usual channels and not sent to the Schools Council.

    1 Town Tree Cover in the Vale of Glamorgan Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for the Vale of Glamorgan will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local authorities and our Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will deliver

Introduction 1.1 This topic paper is one of a series prepared by the Vale of Glamorgan Council as part of the evidence base used to inform the production of policies and site allocations for the Deposit Local Development Plan (LDP). Each topic paper can be read in isolation or together with other topic papers to gain a wider understanding of the issues facing the Vale of Glamorgan. 1.2 The topic paper considers the Council’s responsibilities for Gypsies and Travellers in relation to national and regional planning policy and provides further detail for the justification of any site allocations contained within the Deposit LDP. 2. Background 2.1 Section 87 of the Local Government Act 2003 requires local authorities to produce Local Housing Strategies (LHS) that set out the key issues facing housing provision within a local authority area. The LHS outlines opportunities, constraints, problems and priorities and how these will be addressed. LHS must consider the accommodation needs of Gypsies and Travellers in order to comply with the statutory requirement imposed by section 225 of the Housing Act 2004. 2.2 Planning Policy Wales Edition 4 (February 2011) (PPW) sets out the land use planning policies of the Welsh Government (WG) and directs that local authorities are required to assess the accommodation needs of Gypsies and Travellers and states that it is important that policies for the provision of Gypsy sites are included in local development plans.
