St John’s College are committed to promoting development that makes provision for a mix of meaningful employment opportunities in order to support local residents, students, apprentices and the Greater Cambridge economy.

The ambition set out in the Draft AAP to increase opportunities for training and employment by developers contributing to a range of employment, skills and training initiatives is also supported in principle. It is not clear though in the current draft how “access to new job opportunities, including an agreed target, created during the construction stage of development, will be secured through a Section 106 agreement” particularly in terms of how targets will be fairly and reasonably related in scale and kind to the development.
