Gamlingay Village Primary

The Cabin at Gamlingay Village Primary is a specialist provision within the CAM Academy Trust, established in 2020. The CAM Academy Trust’s Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD) centres are known as Cabins. These centres are designed to provide targeted support for young people with a diagnosis of ASD.

The provision is intended for pupils who have an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP) that identifies the need for additional support to access mainstream education. These pupils are cognitively able to engage with mainstream lessons but benefit from extra help to do so successfully.

The Cabin has a planned admission number (PAN) of eight pupils—two per year group across Key Stage 2 (Years 3 to 6). It is the only primary Cabin within the CAM Academy Trust. Our current cohort includes pupils from both Cambridgeshire and Bedfordshire.

The expectation is that pupils will spend approximately 80% of their school day in their mainstream classroom. The remaining time is used for integration, intervention, and regulation support. The Cabin is overseen by the Special Educational Needs and Disabilities (SEND) Team at Gamlingay Village Primary, who provide ongoing support and staff training as needed.
