Emphasising South Cambridgeshire District Council’s principal interest in protecting and developing the community aspect of Gamlingay Village College, the New Communities Portfolio Holder agreed that the District Council’s response to consultation by Cambridgeshire County Council on the future of Gamlingay Village College should be as follows
1. Retain the current three-tier structure of Gamlingay First School and Gamlingay Village College, feeding into Stratton Upper School, in Biggleswade.
2. Establish very close working links between the First School and the Village College for the primary year groups; and with Stratton Upper for the secondary year groups.
3. Develop formal federation proposals, aimed at improving educational performance and cost-effectiveness, including the possibility of a hard federation with Stratton Upper School.
