About Bacon Garth Primary School

Bacon Garth is the smallest of four primary schools in Cottingham. The
school is less than ten minutes‘ walk south of the centre of the village
and at the northern edge of an estate of terraced council housing with
many deprivation features. This area comprises about two thirds of
the school catchment area – the remainder being a typical suburban mix
of houses, bungalows and apartments. Engaging families from such a diverse catchment
is one of the challenges facing the Headteacher.
Bacon Garth has an admission limit of thirty children per year group for years FS2 to
year six. Years one to six are taught in the main school building, with one class per year
group. Each class has one teacher plus at least one member of support staff.
Foundation Stage 1 and 2 children are taught in the separate Foundation Stage Unit.
The FS1 year group can accommodate up to twenty six children in any one session.
We believe that our school should be an inclusive community where all
aim high, achieve well and develop self-confidence, positive values and
beliefs, a sense of community, well-being and caring attitudes towards
others. Bacon Garth has been rated as good by Ofsted
