QUESTION 12a: Do you agree with the proposed allocation VC SPO1 REV, Land west of Bunwell Road, Spooner Row, for approximately 35 dwellings on 2.34ha? Please explain your response.

Representation ID: 3458

Received: 24/01/2024

Respondent: Norfolk County Council Childrens Services

Representation Summary:

Overall allocation in this area could add approximately 22 children into the area, this would support increasing catchment numbers which appear stable but below capacity of the school. Additional pressure could be added to the school building capacity, school has a confined site within menial class bases available and is likely to mean some children having to travel to the next nearest school as a result. To encourage sustainable and safe travel improvements to walking and cycling routes may need to be considered.
