Bassingbourn Village College was first opened as a Community school in 1954 and has continued to provide learning opportunities for over 55 years for this community.Our adult classes have almost gone full circle now from the classes in 1954 which offered Advanced Pig Keeping, Gardening on Chalk, Bee Keeping, Our Homes and Our Children, Books, Reading and Life and Christmas Baking, Canoe Building and many others.In its foreword, the very first brochure said "We must remember, however, that important and significant though it may be, a building by itself does not constitute a village college; it consists, above all, of the men and women, young people and children who meet in it and who give it their affection and loyalty. Your presence, your laughter, your share in wearing down the sharp edge of our doorstep are all necessary to bring the College to life".Over the years Bassingbourn Community Education has built up a reputation for being a warm, friendly place helping to provide what the Community requires in terms of adult and family learning alongside the teaching and learning of our young people.
