Update 18 June 2025 – Governors Decision to Federate

From 23.4.25 to 5.6.25 the Governing Bodies of FST Primary Schools Federation, and Langton Primary School formally consulted with stakeholders and other interested parties on a proposal to form a new federation (North Yorkshire Rural Schools Federation) with effect from 1 September 2025. The public consultation has now concluded.

Both Governing Bodies have carefully considered the responses received during the consultation, and at separate full Governing Board meetings on Monday 16 June 2025 each Board resolved to move forward with the proposal, as outlined in the consultation document.

This decision reflects the schools’ shared commitment to providing the best possible opportunities and outcomes for all pupils, whilst offering a more secure long-term future for the schools, benefitting the wider communities they serve.

Foston, Langton, Stillington and Terrington schools will formally federate on 1st September 2025.
