Representation Summary:

The policy makes a blanket assumption that new education infrastructure will be required from all new development. However, any such provision to be delivered by a S106 agreement, must have regard to the tests of CIL Regulation 122. The policy should make this explicit. In this regard, the policy should also recognise new infrastructure will be required from new development, only where it can be demonstrated that existing capacity to accommodate growth does not currently exist.
The policy is considered unsound, as it is neither justified nor consistent with national policy for the reasons set out above.
