Welcome to Bishops Down Primary School and Nursery 

Dear Parents, Carers and Friends,

I would like to wish you a very warm welcome to Bishops Down Primary School and Nursery. This website has been designed to keep parents informed and to give newcomers an introduction to the school in terms of the work of our staff and governors and the learning journey that our children take each year.

We have a dedicated, enthusiastic and committed team of people who make up our staff, our governors and Parents Association (PSA), who together ensure our school is a happy, exciting place where everyone is valued and respected.

All those in our school community strive to provide an environment where children are actively encouraged to reach their full potential in all areas of development. Our teachers believe that every child matters and they work to provide high quality teaching which meets the needs of every pupil. As a result, our children become curious, engaged students, who listen and question well and learn in an environment of kindness, responsibility and respect. These values are underpinned in the school's ASPIRE values.

Our staff have high expectations of pupils, in their work and in the way they interact with others. Simply put, we expect children to work to the best of their ability, as well as behave in a polite and responsible manner at all times. This in turn creates a nurturing environment for all and encourages a love of learning.

Parents and carers play a very important part in school life and we value our partnership with them. We all share responsibility for the children’s education and we look forward to working closely together so that all children can learn well. We encourage parents to become involved in the school community, to ensure that, as partners, we can promote high standards in learning, behaviour and attitudes to enable every child to reach his/her full potential.

We believe Bishops Down Primary School and Nursery is a school to be proud of; a place where children are inspired to learn and grow to be respectful, responsible and caring individuals. We wish your child a happy and successful time at our school.

With Best Wishes,

Mrs Johnson

Head teacher
