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.

Pupils moving to secondary and upper schools in September have found out whether they have been allocated one of their school preferences.

We have awarded grants to ten organisations to support community arts projects, cultural events, and art development programs.

Fewer reports of potholes – and more of them repaired faster – is the good news after we made it a priority to address residents’ pothole concerns.

We've been using a new technique that speeds up pothole repairs. It's more cost effective and eco-friendly, too, because it uses the rubber waste from end-of-life HGV tyres.

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.

We're thrilled to announce the return of our Ward Councillor Grant Scheme which aims to improve the lives of local residents by providing funds to support community led projects and initiatives.
