Respondent: Arden Multi Academy Trust

Supports allocation, with new Arden Centre for Community Learning forming an integral part of masterplan.
Concept Masterplan
Cannot support Option 1 as would not address problems of the ageing campus. Support Option 2 in principle as includes new school, but concerned that the masterplan proposes insufficient housing land to ensure new school is viable. Increased capacity is achievable by increasing density of development on existing school site, reflecting the existing buildings height and scale, and providing additional affordable housing, and by including available land parcels within the overall site not currently proposed for development.
