The Federation of Tubbenden Schools
Image: © Ian Capper Taken: 8 Feb 2008
Originally opened as Tubbenden Primary School in 1957, an increase in numbers led to a separation into two schools in 1963, one for Juniors and the other for Infants, with separate buildings on the same site. In 2004, events turned almost full circle, with a decision taken by the two schools to work more closely in a partnership known as a Federation. This photo shows the Tubbenden Lane entrance to the schools. Post script: In September 2009, the two schools once again merged to form a single Primary School. On 1 March 2012 the school became an Academy.
