Planning for our Future
Sawston Village College Regeneration
At Sawston Village College we are making plans for our future.
Our College boasts a heritage setting and unique character, however, some of the current building stock and site layout are inefficient for the demands of a modern curriculum.
The DfE has tasked Bowmer + Kirkland with planning for the future of the school; to better accommodate pupils and staff, improve energy efficiencies and reduce running costs, bolster the collegiate style layout, protect our historic listed buildings and provide improved facilities for the local community to share. These include updating the Sports Centre and Marven Centre.
These exciting plans represent a major investment from the DfE and will achieve a more welcoming, attractive and safe environment in which to teach and learn. The regeneration will meet the latest standards of sustainable building regulations and will be largely constructed off-site to help minimise disruption to our neighbours.
Following a public consultation in January-February 2024, a planning application has been submitted to the South Cambridgeshire District Council. We thank parents, neighbours and members of their community for their feedback and in helping shape the plans. If planning permission is granted the work is likely to begin on site in 2025 and the whole project is anticipated to last two years.
We will update this page with more information when it becomes available.
