Respondent: Mr Paul Gardner
Representation Summary:
PO 13 and the justification for it covers the facilities needed for safe and healthy communities, but there is one very important part missing that is policy guidance for promotion and provision of schools. The NPPF states:
Local planning authorities should take a proactive, positive and collaborative approach to meeting this requirement. They should:
1. Give great weight to the need to create, expand or alter schools; and
2. Work with schools promoters to identify and resolve key planning issues before applications are submitted. I feel that such reference should be included in policy to ensure its deliverability.
