About Bedford Drive Primary School

Bedford Drive Primary is a two-form entry school with 26 FTE nursery. It serves a catchment of pre-dominantly White British heritage pupils. The number of children eligible for pupil premium is above national. The school building is new and is well resourced.

Bedford Drive is a happy, caring and friendly school with high aspirations for each and every one of our children. In September 2016 we moved into our newly built school, which has enabled teaching and learning to be even more inspirational and exciting. The staff team are supportive and links with parents and the wider community are a strength. Ofsted 2022 described school as ‘the heart of the community’.

The school mission is to Inspire, Believe and Succeed. At Bedford Drive children are Inspired, given the ability to Believe in themselves and encouraged to Succeed in whatever they choose to do. We aim to continually improve and ensure the school delivers the highest professional standards.

We promote inclusion, diversity, equality and tolerance. To support the development of our children into successful rounded adults we also develop attitudes to learning through our school values and behaviour expectations of Ready, Respectful and Safe.

The well-established curriculum provides exciting opportunities and challenges throughout all areas, making school an exciting and inspiring place to be. The curriculum has been designed to engage all our children and help them develop a love of learning and promote curiosity, investigation and problem solving.

The school was judged to be ‘good’ by Ofsted in November 2022 and aspires to become outstanding within the next five years.

The school aims to join Leading Learners Multi-Academy Trust during 2024.
