A Pre-planning Exhibition will be taking
place at Haydon Bridge Community High School and Sports College on
22 July 2009 from 4.00 p.m. until 7.00 p.m. The exhibition
will display the current plans for the proposed new zero carbon
learning centre.
This exhibition is for information purposes
and is non-statutory, and therefore does not constitute formal
consultation.
Tbe pre-planning exhibition is open to the
public and any person with an interest in the plans for the new
learning centre is welcome to attend. Members of the design team
and officers from Northumberland County Council will be on hand to
assist with queries and questions and there will be an opportunity
to register comments on the proposed new building.
Haydon Bridge Partnership

basis of a three tier educational system (first, middle and high

Note: St Joseph's Middle School forms part of
the Hexham Partnership, but as it is a Roman Catholic
school it also takes in pupils living in other parts of
the Tyne Valley whose parents have expressed a preference for
a catholic education for their child. However, pupils
reaching High School age in the Tyne Valley are
generally expected to attend the High school within
the catchment area where they live, therefore pupils living in
the Haydon Bridge High School catchment area would not be
eligible for transport to the Queen Elizabeth High School
(QEHS) in Hexham. There is no right of access to pupils of St
Joseph's Middle School to QEHS in Hexham on feeder grounds.
Reorganisation Proposals - Putting the Learner First Programme
(PLF)
Proposals on the reorganisation of
partnerships under the Putting the Learner First Programme
(PLF)can only be put forward where the capital funding
for such a reorganisation has been identified. Presently, it
is not envisaged that funding would be in place to carry out a
reorganisation of the Haydon Bridge Partnership until
around 2017. This means that any such proposals will not be
consulted upon until around 2015. However, these indicative
dates are subject to change should funding come on stream earlier
or later than these dates.
In the meanwhile, the County Council will be
working with all schools in Northumberland to identify and
implement other methods of improving performance of pupils in our
schools.

North Pennine Learning Partnership Trust
Bellingham First School, Allendale Middle
School, Bellingham Community Middle School and Haydon Bridge High
School in Northumberland along with Samuel King's School in
Cumbria became Foundation Schools with a shared
Trust on 1 April 2008. The proposed trust is called
the "North Pennine Learning Partnership Trust".
By forming the charitable Trust, the
schools have more power to make decisions about how they are run.
As a Trust, the schools have joined together
in partnership with other organisations. These partners
are Northumberland and Cumbria local authorities,
Northumberland College, Liverpool John Moore University, University
of Cumbria, the Institute of Outdoor Learning and the Rugby
Football Union.
