#270 Tunstall development

2014-02-24 15:19

May I make a suggestion. Why not build a new school at Senora Fields instead. There are already many new houses in that area and the children would have easy access to a school if built locally on the land there. That way Tunstall could be left alone to be the lovely little village that it was intended to be. I feel strongly that all our lovely country side is being ruined.

#270: HW - Tunstall development

There are many factors and reasons that this development is in the planning stages. Mainly that KCC owns the land within Tunstall, that the current school site in Tunstall is inadequate (for it's current size) and governent cash that is available is specifically for expanding current schools, not "new schools".

There are also plans in the offing to expand/grow schools all over Swale, not just Tunstall, so it's not a "let's ruin the countryside" plan from the council.

I don't see this as ruining the countryside, rather that it is enhancing already great amenity that Tunstall School offers.
