The first full East Cambridgeshire District Council meeting is to be held outside the offices at Ely is to be held at Bottisham Village College later in March. There is to be a 15-minute slot for public questions before the meeting starts. Cllr Cane said she was keen to see as many parish councillors as possible at the meeting. Swaffham Prior Primary School Cllr Pearson said the school hoped to be out of difficulties within the time scale set by HM Inspectors.

No teacher had been found to replaced the departing teacher of class 2. The role is full for the next academic year. It is hoped to keep four small classes rather than three larger ones. Cllr Pearson thought this would encourage parents to return their children to the school as smaller classes were more popular. Cllr Fitch commented on the 'short-term thinking' of some parents.
