  • Justification for Areas of High Landscape Value
    The South Tyneside Local Plan Justification for extending the High Landscape Value boundary southwards on the South Tyneside Coast and amendment to proposed Boldon Downhill Area of High Landscape Value (July 2019) 2 To find out more about the Local Plan, please contact: Spatial Planning Team Development Services South Tyneside Council Town Hall and Civic Offices, Westoe Road South Shields, Tyne & Wear NE33 2RL Telephone: (0191) 424 7688 E-mail: [email protected] Visit: www.southtyneside.info/planning If you know someone who would like this information in a different format contact the communications team on (0191) 424 7385 1.1 This paper provides evidence to support the extension of The Coast: Area of High Landscape Value as proposed in the draft Local Plan (2019). The justification has been provided by the Council’s Senior Landscape Architect. 1.2 The South Tyneside Landscape Character Study Part 3 (2012) argued the case for the original area of High Landscape Value along the coastline. The area of coast originally recommended for inclusion in the landscape designation ran from Trow Point to Whitburn Coastal Park (See Fig.1). The southern boundary has been drawn to include Whitburn Coastal Park, and followed the edge of the Shearwater housing estate. However, the boundary was drawn to exclude the coastline further south. 1.3 The Council feel that there is merit in extending the candidate Coast Area of High Landscape Value and that there is justification for the area south of Whitburn Coastal Park to City of Sunderland Boundary being included this within the proposed designation.

Bradford is a highly inclusive local authority; only 1% of our school population are in Special Schools. Increasing the number of specialist places for SEND alongside a predicted population growth will still only result in around 1% of SEND pupils attending specialist provision. We are working in a challenging and changing landscape both financially and educationally. With this comes the opportunity to transform the way in specialist provision and support for SEND are delivered in Bradford.
