THIS is the first glimpse of how a multi-milion pound super Vocational Learning Centre in Clitheroe will look. Ambitious plans for “Aspire”


- a purpose-built state-of-the- art facility, which will enable local 14 to 19-year-olds and mature students to benefit from a varied range of vocational opportunities without leaving


;tli¥to\vn - are moving ahead. However, according to Rib-


blesdale School, which is behind the project, finding a suitable site, with easy access to public transport and links with local businesses, is proving challeng­ ing, but not impossible, but not impossible. An exclusive article in the Clitheroe Advertiser and Times


in September last year revealed plans for the centre. It will focus on bringing the


best in vocational education with the emphasis on imagina­ tive, flexible and adaptable learning - reflecting the needs of the students in the Ribble Val­ ley.


The move came after the Clitheroe school was awarded a second specialism in Vocational Learning by the DfES alongside its current technology special­ ism. Under the £2.2m. proposals.


Aspire will focus on Level 2 qualifications offering a wide range of specialised diplomas. Travel and tourism, health


and beauty, applied a r t and design, hospitality and catering, construction and media are just some of the possible subjects available. It will boast many 21st Cen­


tury learning areas including provision for a lecture theatre, an IT suite and a commercial kitchen with an attached restaurant to benefit learners of all abilities. When finished, the scheme


will be the size of a small pri­ mary school. The development, which has


won the backing of Bowland High School, St Augustine’s RC High School, Billington, and Clitheroe Royal Grammar School, will enable employers in the Ribble Valley to work close­ ly with the aim of increasing


Rail work means revised services


DUE to engineering works. Northern Rail is running revised services in January between Manchester Victoria and Clitheroe. As a result the following alterations wll apply: • Until tomorrow, January 26th: Trains will


not be able to run between Blackburn and Clitheroe and replacement buses will be provid­ ed.


• Saturday January 27th and Sunday the


28th: Trains will not be able to run between Bolton and Clitheroe and replacement buses will be provided. Passengers travelling to and from Entwistle at


weekends are advised to call Northern Customer Relations on 0845 000 0125 to make alternative arrangements. Unfortunately it will not be pos­ sible to carry prams, pushchairs, bicycles or wheelchairs, which do not fold up, on the bus services. Northern Rail apologise for any incon­ venience this will cause. The revision began from Saturday January


20th, but the press notice was only received on Thursday, January 18th, and was subsequently


too late for last week’s issue. Passengers are advised to check with National Rail Inquiries on 08457 484950 before travelling.


access to high-quality vocation­ al and work-based learning that will open up a whole mix of career opportunities for young people. Aspire will be a hybrid between a school, a college and a business and hopes are high for it to be up and running by 2008- 09, providing a suitable site is found. Deputy headteacher at Rib-


blesdale, Mr Peter Evans, believes the exciting project will not only bring to life the school’s ambitions, but could become a first-class facility for use by all learners of all ages in the area. He commented: “Aspire will


be all about creating a wider range of opportunities for stu­ dents to suit their particular learning style and will result in a real boost for the community. “The much-awaited facility


will bring to life the ambition we share with other high schools in the Ribble Valley and can build not just on our existing partner­ ships, but on other schools’ dis­ tinct partnerships too. “Talks are'currently being


held with Ribble Valley Bor­ ough Council and a number of


A PLANNING application has been submitted to Ribble Valley Borough Council for alteration and extension of the Grade II listed Castle Museum and outbuilding incorporating restoration of existing buildings and localised alter­ ation - to improve access and form physical link into the new building. New building linking the existing build­ ings together and providing accessible entrance facilities. External re-land- scaping and remodelling of 3240 sq. m site within the curtain wall of castle site, enabling greater public access. All works are aimed to keep the museum building in public use and ensure finan­ cial viability of the facility. Comments on the proposal at


locations in and around Clitheroe are being explored for the development. “We had a meeting with the


architect on Thursday and the project is looking very promis­ ing in terms of moving ahead. “Securing the land is definite­


ly the next stage.” Mr Evans went on to say he


had received positive feedback from school governors, parents and local business people, who are keen to play a part in run­ ning and managing the building once it is open. “We hope Aspire will become


the very first purpose-built vocational learning centre in the borough and will play a major role in preparing people for employment in the town for generations to come,” added Mr Evans.


Clitheroe Castle, Castle Gate (number 1047and full consent application 0039) must be made to the council by Febru­ ary 9th. Other applications submitted
