The Golden Lane Campus is yet again making a retrospective planning application. It would seem that there is no incentive for them to do otherwise, no danger of having to undo the work, no danger of a fine for the individual decision makers. Why bother with the hassle of fighting for permission to do a thing when you can just do the thing and get it approved afterwards?
In this case the retrospective application is for play structures.
While we most certainly should think of the children, we should also think about the wider context including neighboring residences and, you know, following the boring old planning rules/laws.
I hope the children do indeed end up with good play facilities, but I also hope that the Islington planning team recognise the habits of the school regarding retrospective applications and take action to discourage it.
