BUSINESSENTERPRISEBULLETIN issue eight 3 A sign of the times as Loudoun pupils help to regenerate Galston Loudoun Academy pupils have a castiron reason to be proud of their local town. As plans for the regeneration of the town’s historic buildings start to take shape, pupils are playing their part by designing innovative pictorial hanging signs for local retailers, in a competition organised by Galston Community Development Trust. Owners of buildings within the town centre are being encouraged to apply for grant funding to restore the fabric of buildings through the Conservation Area Regeneration Scheme (CARS), jointly funded by East Ayrshire Council and Historic Scotland. These repairs are carried out using traditional materials and methods proven to be the most effective and sympathetic way to ensure they are fit for purpose in the 21st Century. But regeneration is not merely about buildings. It is about the people who live and work in them and those who will use and look after them for generations to come. As part of the CARS project, funds have been earmarked to educate tradesmen, householders and young people in the skills needed to restore and maintain these architectural gems. For Loudoun Academy, the scheme has enabled the Technical Department to instigate a hanging sign competition. Pupils had a visit from Pete Hill of PJ Johnston and Co, a traditional forge based in Rathobyres. He specialises in traditional metalwork and bespoke sculptural pieces and spent an afternoon at the school talking through the design process and showing how the plans were then forged into a final product. He will be working with the pupils as they plan and create the signs. Local businesses have been encouraged to apply for the competition as part of their CARS applications. They will be working with the pupils as they design signs for their premises. The final designs will be exhibited later in the summer before the winners are chosen by a judging panel and produced by the pupils. Already the pupils have been visiting businesses such as Lotus Crystals, Robert Neil Ironmongers and Murdoch Construction, speaking to the owners and getting some ideas for their designs. All involved are very excited at the idea that these signs will enhance the town, with a fusion of a traditional art-form and modern ideas, and Pete Hill hopes, for some pupils, the project will perhaps stimulate a lifelong interest and future career in traditional ironwork. 4 issue eight BUSINESSENTERPRISEBULLETIN Digital delight for St Joseph’s Academy A new iPad for Learning initiative was launched at Councillor Douglas Reid, Leader of the Council said: “We’re fully St Joseph’s Academy in Kilmarnock recently by the committed to providing a superb, fit for purpose education for all our Right Reverend Willie Nolan, Bishop of Galloway. pupils and, using technology such as iPads for every pupil today, is one way we can help students develop an advantage in tomorrow’s world.

Artist’s work, their inspiration, life and times they worked in can be viewed online, almost instantly. “In French and German, word pronunciation can be heard, the use of verbs and grammar can be illustrated and the social networking aspect of all this brings pupils together to share ideas, solve problems and create a ‘can-do’ environment in the classroom – that’s invaluable for a teacher and helps accelerate learning. “In addition, iPads turn on in seconds, which now means every single pupil can be online and researching in minutes, rather than rummaging in bags, looking for pens, pencils, or text books. “The battery lasts all day, it has two cameras and the screen is the perfect size for viewing/ working, group collaboration, or even just holding the iPad up to show others your work.

    1 Planning Performance Framework Annual Report 2018-2019 Planning and Economic Development Service The Opera House, 8 John Finnie Street, 1 Kilmarnock, KA1 1DD 2 Foreword by Councillor Jim Roberts Chair of the Planning Committee As with my introduction last year to our PPF, I remain pleased to report clear continuing performance improvement across a range of markers for Development Management, in particular in relation to decision-making timescales and the reduction in legacy cases. Officers in Development Management are also making increased use of Processing Agreements particularly with Local Developments to work in collaboration with Developers. Our team retain their continued ambition to continually improve performance across all markers. The last year has been an exciting and busy one for our Development Planning and Regeneration Section. Good progress has been made with the Minerals Local Development Plan; the Examination has now been completed and we are anticipating adopting the Plan in October 2019. Following on from successful Kilmarnock, Cumnock and Galston Conservation Area Regeneration Schemes, earlier this year we received the great news that a Mauchline CARS will be going ahead. This will help to really enhance and make the most of the town’s historic environment and encourage new economic activity. Placemaking continues to be a focus of our work and, working in partnership with our communities, 2 further placemaking plans for Ochiltree and Catrine have been adopted as supplementary guidance. The team is also busy working on the development phase of an HLF funded Landscape Partnership for the Coalfield Communities and is leading on the preparation of the business case for the National Energy Research Demonstrator in Cumnock, an innovative and exciting project within the Ayrshire Growth Deal.
