​St Martin's CE School, in Scarborough, can proceed with repairs to its pitched roofing, which has begun to "show its age". ​The planning authority said that the proposed roof replacement was justified “owing to progressive leaks in areas of the roof that require attention, and the roof replacement and materials would provide the most sustainable form of waterproofing and roof materials”. ​St Martin's children come from the Scarborough Deanery of the Church of England, which comprises 16 parishes, covering an area of more than 100 sq miles. ​No comments were received from members of the public regarding the proposed repairs. ​As part of the repairs, the existing roof tiles will be removed and a new underlayer, insulation, and roof slats will be fitted that incorporate ventilated eaves, verge, and ridge.
