  1. Year 7 Settlement assessment.

  2. Think about the following that we have covered in class to get the highest level possible. • Make sure you say what type of settlement this is going to be. • Think about the problems we have covered when a settlement expands. • Explain who the winners and losers would be if this settlement went ahead. • Have you explained the positive and negative points this new development will have. • Make sure your argument is one sided either for or against but make sure you included both sides of the argument to show that you understand both sides. • Build in as many key words as you can when explaining your argument such as “ green belt, eco town, isolated dwelling, job creation , carbon neutral etc.” • Show that you understand what type of settlement this will be and why this is a good or a bad location for it. • Make sure you explain what an “ECO TOWN IS” and what features the buildings in an eco town have that make them environmentally friendly. • Explain why this development would be better or worse than regenerating the city centre of Leicester- think about what CBD’s are for and why itthis eco town would need to be outside in the countryside ( what types of houses are built in the centre of towns and cities?) • Include research and drawings to back your argument up. • Hand it in as if it is an official report. • GOOD LUCK! • Ms Bradshaw
