South Cambridgeshire District is bordered to the northeast by East Cambridgeshire District, to the southeast by St Edmundsbury District, to the south by Uttlesford District, to the southwest by North Hertfordshire District, to the west by Central Bedfordshire and to the northwest by Huntingdonshire District. The neighbouring counties are shown on Map 2.2 below: Paragraph 5.320 Add additional sentence to the end of paragraph 5.320 to clarify the usage of squash facilities. All the pay and play squash facilities across Cambridge and South Cambridgeshire District are located on education sites; all but Kelsey Kerridge therefore have limited day time access.

With 400 years of teaching and learning experience, The Perse is well placed to look beyond educational fads and concentrate on what makes a great school. No school can be better than the sum of its teachers, and this edition of OP News includes the obituary of the remarkable Keith Symons who created the CCF Naval Section and used it to develop teamwork, communication, leadership, resilience, and independence. Brilliant teachers inspire young minds, and The 02 Perse is fortunate to have so many enthusiastic, committed, and caring staff. Great schools know that talents come in many different 31 shapes and forms. We are delighted that four Perseans have been selected to represent the UK in academic Olympiads, and that Perse teams reached the national finals in indoor hockey, outdoor hockey, netball, and golf competitions. Beneath the headline successes great schools value the achievements of all their pupils emphasising that endeavour matters most of all. Great schools need excellent facilities to maximise pupil learning. We are very excited about our performing arts centre project, and the high class performance, assembly, lecture, exhibition and social space it will create.

  • Summer Term Calendar 2021
    Summer Term Calendar 2021 This is a print-friendly edition of our planned summer term calendar. The electronic calendar on the web- site/ParentPortal will remain the ‘live’ and up-to-date version of plans, but I hope that this print-friendly version is helpful for pupils and parents in seeing a provisional overview of the months ahead. Our plans aspire to a return for some “intra-School” Saturday sport in the first half of term, and then a gradual evolution of fixtures and trips (local and regional) in the second half of term. Whilst we have tried to plan events in accordance with the Prime Minister’s provisional roadmap out of lockdown, there may well be further changes as national Covid advice and DfE guidance continues to evolve. We will update the website/portal calendar as required and flag any significant changes in the Friday newsletters next term.
