The majority of Central Bedfordshire families applying for a school place this year have received good news, with 9 in 10 children offered a place at their first preference primary school.
The opening of the first-ever crematorium in Central Bedfordshire, Oakfield Gardens in Steppingley, marks a significant milestone for bereavement services in the area.
At a meeting held on Tuesday (9 April), our Executive made a decision about how to allocate almost £1.5million of government funding to support local families.
Applications are now open for children and young people who are due to start school, or transfer to middle, secondary or upper school in September 2024.
