After considering the latest plans from DCC for the West End School, their opinion of the facilities was clearly communicated to DCC and contained the following comments on external provision.
"it does not provide sufficient playing fields""There does not appear to be any pitch provision proposed within the ground of the school, which is contrary to sportscotland guidelines. For a school of this size sportscotland recommends a minimum provision of a single synthetic pitch (60m x 40m)""the external pitch provision is contrary to sportscotland's 'School Playing Fields - Planning and Design Guidance' and is therefore insufficient for the needs of the school"
So yet again parents were right and the council wrong, so just what IS the matter with those incompetents at a senior level in the council - is it simply arrogance?
ReplyDeleteIf they think they can do whatever they want then they will be proved wrong where in matters - in court.
To quote Liz Fordyce - BRING IT ON!
Well done to sportscotland for standing up for the kids right to have at least the bare minimum of sport facilities.
ReplyDeleteShame on the SNP and Council officers who are opposing the views of sportscotland.
