About Bishop Fox's School

At Bishop Fox’s School our ethos of high standards and high expectations underpins everything that we do. We work hard to create a caring and challenging learning environment in which each individual can strive, enjoy and achieve.

We are dedicated to building opportunities for our students to achieve the highest academic standards, ensuring that they are known as individuals and that their unique personality, talents and interests are nurtured and developed to the full.

Bishop Fox’s School is a place for students to make new friends and to enjoy many shared experiences together. We embrace the notion that young people should enjoy and achieve in their time at school. Whilst examination results are critical to children’s future lives, so is a safe and happy environment within which they can enjoy the opportunities and experiences beyond the classroom that nurtures them to become independent learners and responsible adults.

We welcome into our school community the parents of students who want to learn, experience and grow into informed, high achieving, well-rounded and delightful young people. A strong partnership between parents and the school is vital in enabling children to achieve success.
