Representation Summary:

My summary is simple, my child who has lived in this village all her life has not been able to join her local primary with her pre-school friends. I had to enroll my son at 5 months into preschool in the village in order to secure him a place.

I work full time in London and cannot see a GP when sick but have to almost plan it.

The local school could not cope with the increase in residence nor could the medical centre.

How on earth can you propose / consider building these dwellings when the current local infrastructure is stretched beyond capacity. I live within a 4 mins walk to Great Wakering Primary school yet my daughter wasnt offered a space and had to join Barling primary without any of her pre school friends, instead of walking her to school I have to drive her a couple of miles down the road to the next school. My sister who lives in the village still doesnt have her 5yr old daughter in school due to lack of places within this area. If even just 25% of the dwellings have 1 child where will they go?
