(Education) The intensification of the site, already identified for development, will place additional demands on infrastructure, and on the associated contributions to deliver it.
Based on the Council’s approved general multipliers, this level of additional development (1,500 dwellings), would generate approximately 300-450 early years’ children, 450-600 primary-aged pupils and 270-375 secondary-aged pupils. It may therefore be necessary for a 2-3 form entry primary school, with on-site early years provision.
In addition to early years and childcare provision on site at the new primary schools, it will be necessary to allocate and market additional sites suitable for full day care provision. This is partly to ensure sufficient places which would not be met by EY provision on the school sites alone, but also to promote choice and for families who are not entitled to funded childcare but still wish to access provision. Where possible, the Council would encourage the co-location of establishments to promote partnership working. The Council would also actively encourage developers to provide free plots of serviced land or purpose-built buildings.

(Minerals and Waste) Most of the site is within a MSA for sand & gravel. Policy 5. Southeast section of the site nearly all within a MSA for chalk and is within the settlement boundary.
