House building plans not fault of free school trust

From Gazette Live (Stockton): http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/news/its-absolute-madness-new-plans-6353051

"The number of new homes which could be built on land next to the new Ingleby Barwick Free school has soared to nearly 1,600. A new application has been submitted to Stockton Council seeking opinion for a development of up to 675 homes for the site at Low Lane, High Leven. It comes just weeks after plans were revealed for 550 houses, on top of the 350 already approved by the Secretary of State to be built alongside the 600-place Ingleby Manor Free school and 150-place sixth form. Local politicians have branded the proposed level of housing as “excessive” and “absolute madness”. But Ingleby Manor Foundation Trust said the free school could not be blamed for the potential explosion of housing."
