Plans for our multi-sport playing surface

Following our initial consultation, the Governing Body is continuing with our plans to install a multi-sports playing surface, up to 1,820m² (34.5m x 52.75m) in size with directional lighting and boundary fencing on part of our existing grassed playing field to enable all-year round sports and play provision during and after the school day. 

 

We are inviting stakeholders, including parents, neighbours and local residents, to view and comment on our plans, before we apply for formal planning approval so that we can make this change for our pupils and community in the best way possible:

 

Thursday 13th June, 7-9pm

Main Hall

 

Saturday 29th June, 1-3pm

(during PTFA Summer Fair)

Dining Hall

 

At each session, our plans and computer generated images of our design will be available for viewing.  Our architects, governors and school leaders will mingle with visitors, hearing views and answering questions.


The school playing field is important to the school sports curriculum, and highly popular with children during dry periods, but it is prone to water-logging and becoming slippery with mud, which means much of the year it is not used.  With the nationwide emphasis on increasing sports and physical activity for primary school children we need a space that we can use all year round. This is why we are proposing a new multi-sports playing surface.  The Governing Body has gathered views from stakeholders about the location, use by community users and times of operation to inform our plans. 

 

Parents will have an opportunity to share your views about our plans from Thursday 13th June until Monday 8th July at 9am..  There are several ways to share your thoughts:

  • paper form: available at each information session
