  • Wokingham Borough Council Year Book
    WOKINGHAM BOROUGH COUNCIL YEAR BOOK 2018 / 2019 WOKINGHAM BOROUGH COUNCIL COAT OF ARMS Interpretation of the Arms The shield combines the principal topographical and historical features of the Borough. The main surface of the shield indicates the former, while the latter are represented in the top portion or "chief". Three white waves and two green ones, each resembling an initial W, suggest the undulating farmlands and rich woodlands enclosed by the Thames, Loddon and Blackwater rivers. The royal stag's head, similar to that in the arms of Windsor and that of the complete stag in the arms of Berkshire and Wokingham, refers to the situation of large parts of the Borough in the ancient Royal Forest of Windsor. In the chief, the pastoral staves refer to the Sees of Winchester and Salisbury, the former held the whole of the Hundred of Wargrave and the Bishop of Salisbury had a Palace at Sonning. The mitre refers to the mitred Abbey of Abingdon which has links with the Borough over a thousand years old, and to the ancient Saxon bishopric said to have existed at Sonning. The background is red, as is the upper part of the arms of Reading University, whose site is within the area at Earley. Above the shield is the closed helm proper to civic arms, with its decorative mantling or tournament cloak in the basic colour of the shield, green and white. Upon the helm stands the crest, the base of which is the special type designed for Rural Borough Councils and consisting of wheatears and acorns alternately, representing agriculture and natural beauty.

  • The Piggott School, Wokingham
    Determination Case reference: ADA3691 Objector: A parent Admission authority: The academy trust for The Piggott School, Wokingham Date of decision: 11 August 2020 Determination In accordance with section 88H(4) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, I uphold the objection to the admission arrangements for September 2021 determined by the academy trust for The Piggott School, Wokingham. By virtue of section 88K(2), the adjudicator’s decision is binding on the admission authority. The School Admissions Code requires the admission authority to revise its admission arrangements within two months of the date of the determination unless an alternative timescale is specified by the adjudicator. In this case I determine that the arrangements must be revised by 28 February 2021. The referral 1. Under section 88H(2) of the School Standards and Framework Act 1998, (the Act), an objection has been referred to the adjudicator by a parent (the objector), about the admission arrangements (the arrangements) for The Piggott School (the school), an academy school in Wargrave with a Church of England religious character for boys and girls aged 4 to 18, for September 2021. The objection is to the way in which priority for places is established when the school is oversubscribed from within its catchment area. 2. The local authority (LA) for the area in which the school is located is the Wokingham Borough Council. The LA is a party to this objection. Other parties to the objection are the academy trust for the school, the Diocese of Oxford (the diocese), which is the religious authority for the school, and the objector.

  • Annex C WBC Code of Conduct Consultation
    Annex C WBC Code of Conduct Consultation - Consultation Feedback Response from: Charvil Parish Council The consultation document was considered at our recent Council meeting, and they were happy with it (after a long discussion about the maximum amount for gifts before having to declare – which is purely academic as none of them have ever been offered anything!!!). The only point that we had was that No. 15 is irrelevant to us as a non-political council, so we would just delete it when adopting a revised code. Finchampstead Parish Council Best practice 1: Agree with proposed change. Best practice 5: No strong view as it rarely affects us, but £100 seems very high. A compromise position of £50 could be appropriate. Best practice 9: There should still be an informal route for resolving breaches of the code, provided this can progress to a formal review if it cannot be resolved informally. No strong view on whether the outcomes of these informal reviews should be published. Should complaints lodged but not investigated be published, along with the reasons – ref Best Practice 6? Best practice 11: Agree that there should be a more specific approach rather than leaving it to the Town or Parish Council’s discretion. However, it is imperative that a Clerk is able to make a complaint direct rather than having to get the backing of the Chair or the Council, unless the Clerk wishes to do this. Likewise a Councillor should be able to make a complaint direct. Agree that Town/Parish Councils should take corporate responsibility rather than leaving it to the Clerk, but there has to be some confidentiality, at least at an early stage.
