Bellenden Primary School

Hello and a very warm welcome to Bellenden Primary School.
At Bellenden Primary School we learn together to achieve success for all, based on high expectations and equality of access for all. We nurture the growth of the whole child - academically, socially, emotionally, morally and physically - celebrating all achievement in a safe, caring and creative environment. The whole team works together to bring learning ‘alive’ and extend pupils’ experiences so that they are well prepared for the next steps in their education.
We believe a happy child will be a successful child and work to ensure every child enjoys school and achieves success. We do this by providing the best teaching and learning experiences that we can through an exciting and engaging curriculum.
We have a very dedicated and hardworking staff who will go that extra mile- as only the best will do for the children in our care. We work in a very close partnership with parents so that every child is fully supported. We know the importance that parents play in their child’s education and so welcome your involvement in your child’s education and in the life of our school. We ask your opinion on a regular basis, as well as inviting you into school as much as possible. We encourage parents/carers to come into school to discuss any concerns or issues.
Please call in at any time to see me or make an appointment to see me or any other member of staff if we are not immediately available
We pride ourselves on being a warm, welcoming school and look forward to working together to achieve the best outcomes for all the children in our care.
