About Charford First School

Charford First School is located in Bromsgrove, Worcestershire. It is a larger than average three form entry school, with an extensive Early Years provision. It takes children from the age of 2 years up to 9 years with approximately 500 children on roll.

In the two year old provision, Little Acorns, there are up to 15 children in each session. The rising three year old provision, Little Owls, has up to 16 children in each session and our large Nursery takes up to 39 children in each session (or full time equivalent). There are then three classes in each year group cohort.

The school catchment is very socio-economically diverse. Some of the children come from a disadvantaged background, with around 20% of children being eligible for FSMs, and some of our children come from affluent backgrounds, whose parents are in professional roles.

Charford is also a very inclusive school that has a strong, positive reputation within the local community.

This catchment creates a very unique and special ethos in which the whole school community see themselves as a ‘family’ and where the children learn to value difference and be proud of who they are.

Charford First School has responsibility for the Children’s Centre. This facility is home to Bromsgrove Early Years Language Class (with Batchley First School as the commissioned provider) along with speech and language therapists.

The school also runs a highly popular before and after school club called Little Treasures. This is led and managed by Charford staff to ensure consistency of approach.

Charford First School is outward facing and works in partnership with other local schools and is now a proud founder member of Worcestershire Hills Trust. This consists of Prince Henry’s High School, Charford First School, Bredon Hill Middle School and Blackwell First School.
