Norman Cross was a rural district in Huntingdonshire from 1894 to 1974. It was formed in 1894 under the Local Government Act 1894 from the part of the Peterborough rural sanitary district which was in Huntingdonshire (the rest forming part of Peterborough Rural District). It was named for the historic Norman Cross hundred. It was expanded in 1935 by taking in Elton from the disbanded Oundle Rural District, and Sibson cum Stibbington, which had previously been administered in Barnack Rural District based over the border in the Soke of Peterborough. In 1965 the Soke and Huntingdonshire merged to form Huntingdon and Peterborough. In 1974 the district was abolished under the Local Government Act 1972. Most of the district went on to form part of the Huntingdonshire district in the non-metropolitan county of Cambridgeshire, except that some areas in the north which were part of Peterborough New Town became part of Peterborough.

Hampton College and Hampton Gardens operate under a joint Sixth Form community with students learning in both schools. Hampton Gardens focuses on performing arts and dance classes whilst Hampton College retains its focus on Humanities. A third school, Hampton Lakes, is planned to be built in 2021 to complete the Hampton Academies Trust. The school currently boasts an outdoor amphitheatre and is built around a courtyard setting.
