It was a positive overall message, but incredibly light on detail. I was hoping for a clearer step plan of what the council is going to do next, but I do welcome the commitment to implement widespread monitoring of the impacts of the scheme with a focus on social fairness and particularly the rights of children.

Well done Dougie. You put the points across very well. I?m glad this coincided with a day of annual leave so that I could watch!


Re: engagement with schools, am I right in thinking that councillor Rose?s commitment only extended to engaging with those on the Dulwich Estate? That presumably excludes, Harris Primary ED, Charter ED and Goose Green (all of which are no doubt bearing the brunt of additional traffic on Lordship Lane, Grove Vale and EDG). I don?t think it?s at all fair to consult with the schools on the Estate whilst ignoring those elsewhere, particularly as we know that one of the big issues with the Dulwich scheme is that it is designed to banish traffic from the green leafy streets of the village and dump it elsewhere!

It will be up to everyone to keep expressing views and make sure something happens. But it didn?t sound like a blanket ?no change, let?s wait the full period and see? as advocated by the clean air etc lady ... the door seems to be open to some immediate tweaks to address the major problems (at least that?s what I heard, although that could be confirmation bias at work)

That was my take home - 'we are going to do some reviews'. Urgent ones I hope.

We have to ensure this is an area-wide consultation and that the councillors are engaging with all RAs and all stakeholders. For too long they have treated this issue on a ward-by-ward basis and this is why the problems are so bad. Any discussion has to be with ALL stakeholders across the whole of Dulwich - not just in the pockets where there are the most vocal pro-closure activists.


The gentleman at the beginning is he from the Dulwich Village RA?

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      By malumbu · Posted

      If you are against the increase in fuel duty then you are surly against fuel duty full stop.  It has not kept up with inflation, I'm talking about getting it back on track.  Ultimately road user charging is the solution. Labour will probably compromise on agricultural land inheritance by raising the cap so it generally catches the Clarksons of the world who are not bothered about profits from land beyond, in his case, income from a highly successful TV series and the great publicity for the farm shop and pub

      Change to Charter North 6th Form Admissions?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      Were things much simpler in the 80/90s? I remember both my girls belonging to a 6th Form Consortium which covered Sydenham Girls, Forest Hill Boys and Sedgehill off Bromley Road. A level classes were spread across the 3 schools - i remember Forest Hill boys coming to Sydenham Girls for one subject (think it was sociology or psychology ) A mini bus was provided to transport pupils to different sites, But I guess with less schools being 'managed' by the local authority, providers such as Harris etc have different priorities.

      Charter School ED - SEN / ADHD experience

      By Pugwash · Posted

      There are teachers who have extensive experience of working with children with SEN but cannot access training to become SEN assessor (sorry cannot think of the correct title - senior moment ) as schools do not have the budget to undertake this.

      Do others hear the lady singing, in her home at the top end of Copleston Road?

      By Pugwash · Posted

      In certain cultures, it is the norm to have a period of singing at certain times after a death.
