Impington Village College
Impington Village College is a coeducational secondary school and sixth form with academy status, located in Impington in the English county of Cambridgeshire. The buildings of 1938/9 by Walter Gropius and Maxwell Fry are Grade I listed.
The school opened in 1939, two weeks after the outbreak of World War II. It was the fourth Village College to be opened in Cambridgeshire. As a village college, it was originally intended to encompass all aspects of learning in the village, and included prominent space for adult education and the First Histon Scouts, who are now based in a hut on the grounds of the college.
In 1998 the school was awarded the Sportsmark by Sport England and was also granted international school status by the British Council's central bureau for education visits and exchanges, the first of eleven schools to be designated that way. In September 1999 it built on this with a successful application to the Department of Education to become a specialist Language College.〔(Impington College brochure )〕 The school converted to academy status in January 2013.
==Building==
Henry Morris, founder of the village college system in Cambridgeshire, employed prominent architects to design the colleges, and Impington was designed by Walter Gropius, founder of The Bauhaus School of Architecture, and his partner Maxwell Fry. It is the only example of Gropius’s work in Britain〔('Viewing Impington - the idea of the village college' ), the informal education homepage, Smith, M. K. (1997). Last update: 30 January 200〕 and the building is now Grade I listed building. In 2014, the college received a £100,000 grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund for important repair and restoration works to the listed part of the site. Work began in the August of that year.
