Children needing mainstream school support, families affected by domestic abuse, and young people in care will get renewed support under new Central Bedfordshire Council plans.
Our newly-appointed Executive Member for Children and Families and Deputy Executive Member have issued a joint update following their first week in post.
We're supporting Sceptre this week (Monday 17 November to Friday 21 November 2025), joining Bedfordshire Police in a national effort to raise awareness of the dangers of carrying a knife.
We joined forces with Bedfordshire Police and other partner agencies at the end of May to support Operation Sceptre, a national campaign aimed at tackling knife crime and keeping communities safe.
In March 2025, we wrote to all parent governors of schools we maintain, seeking nominations for 2 parent governor representative posts on the Children’s Services Overview and Scrutiny Committee.
On Thursday, 15 May, Councillor Kevin Collins was appointed as Chair of Central Bedfordshire Council and Councillor Vicky Malone has been appointed as Vice Chair.
