2.4 EducationThere are two primary schools in the assessment area: St Andrews Primary School and PantonHill Primary School. No secondary schools or tertiary education providers are located in theassessment area. The nearest public secondary school is Diamond Valley College, DiamondCreek.Many students in this area attend schools located further afield. The policy and guidelines relatingto student travel eligibility on the free school bus network, including the policy for the retention ofa school bus route, is the responsibility of the Department of Education and Early ChildhoodDevelopment (DEECD).It has been DEECD policy for a number of years not to provide any new school bus services toschools that are further away than the closest public school. DEECD sets the criteria for, andassesses need for new dedicated school bus services.2.5 Land UseThe land use zoning of the assessment area is shown in Figure 8. The majority of the land in thearea is zoned as rural conservation or public conservation and resource zones. Panton Hill and StAndrews are the only towns in the area that have small pockets of township zones. These areareas that allow residential development and commercial, industrial and other uses in smalltowns.About 91 per cent of the total area of Nillumbik Shire is green wedge land (Nillumbik ShireCouncil, 2010. Nillumbik Green Wedge Management Plan). This limits urban development in theassessment area to the non-green wedge land in the small towns of St Andrews and Panton Hill.These factors restrict population growth in the area.Page 12
