  • Meeting Basic Educational Need in North Cambridge
    Meeting basic educational need in North Cambridge A submission from Chesterton Community College to the February 2017 meeting of the Cambridgeshire Children and Young People’s Committee 19 February 2017 Executive summary This submission responds to the Education Officer’s paper “Review of Secondary Education in Cambridge”, dated 28 February 2017. We ask the Children and Young People’s Committee to make a firm decision to support Recommendation (c) of the paper, the planned new build at Chesterton Community College, on a clearly specified timetable, with completion for September 2019. Chesterton’s overriding priority is to meet the basic need for high-quality secondary education in North Cambridge. The need is illustrated below, using Local Authority figures: Sept 2016 210 pupils Chesterton 355 pupils 80 pupils North Cambridge Academy Pupils 65 pupils Net outflow to schools outside North Cambridge living in 25% Chesterton increase or NCA (91 pupils) catchment 2016-2019 240 pupils Chesterton (assuming expansion) 446 pupils 150 pupils North Cambridge Academy (full) Net outflow to schools Sept 2019 56 pupils outside North Cambridge According to LA data, there will be a 25% increase (91 pupils) in the number of state school pupils living in Chesterton and NCA’s catchments by summer 2019, compared to 2016. Even if Chesterton expands, and North Cambridge Academy is full with 150 Year 7 students, 56 students will still need to find places elsewhere. But those places will not be available. Here are the LA’s stark figures for Year 7 places city-wide (positive numbers indicate a shortfall of places, negative is a surplus): Shortfall of Year 7 places, assuming Chesterton intake of 210 North (incl IVC) South Total Sep-17 -25 -95 -120 Sep-18 32 -25 7 Sep-19 50 -3 47 Sep-20 74 88 162 Sep-21 124 187 311 Sep-22 158 168 326 By Sept 2019 there will be a city-wide shortage of around fifty Year 7 places, and that number rises sharply in the following years.

Our size enables all students to flourish within a supportive environment, where each feels valued and empowered. Strong academic performance across a wide range of subjects has led to the college regularly being in the top 25% of schools nationally for progress.

Our most recent OFSTED Inspection in September 2017 confirmed that we are a ‘good’ school which “has continued to improve the quality of education in the school” since our previous ‘Good’ judgement in May 2013. We are committed to improving what we do and aim to be outstanding by the time of our next Inspection. Being a part of the Cam Academy Trust and sharing expertise between schools are two examples of how we intend to achieve this. I look forward to working with you in the future.

The College first opened in September 1959, the sixth of Henry Morris’s village colleges, from which the worldwide community school movement developed.

Introduction This Neighbourhood Profile for the North area of the city covers the following wards: Kings Hedges, Arbury, East Chesterton and West Chesterton. The profiles have been collated by the City Council’s Neighbourhood Community Development Team (NCDT) as a tool to developing work plans for the coming year and beyond. The profiles aim to capture key facts and statistics about the area, services that are delivered by the Council and other statutory and voluntary sector partners, key community groups and activities in the area as well as what are perceived to be gaps in provision. Focus groups were held with residents and community groups in each area to identify both positive perceptions of the community as well as identifying issues and gaps from a resident’s perspective. The NCDT has recently realigned its community development resources to work in the areas of highest need in the city.
