About

We are all very proud of our small village school and the community it belongs to. The school has a strong family ethos that is underpinned by our core values of care, resilience, cooperation, respect, confidence and independence. Our school motto is: Valuing ourselves. Valuing everybody.

Throughout the childrens time at our school, we aim for them to develop an appreciation for and tolerance of others, as well as core personal values. These all help the children to know and understand themselves throughout their time with us and in their lives beyond primary school. All those in the Beenham Primary School community are ambitious for our children.

We expect the highest quality in all our relationships, work and behaviour. Our school prides itself on having an outstanding understanding of our children and recognises that each child is an individual and learns in their own way.

At Beenham Primary School, we believe that learning is the process by which children acquire and assimilate knowledge, concepts, skills, values and attitudes to enable them to make greater sense of the world: our holistic view of education and development supports every child to achieve success in meaningful ways.

In the school’s own words, from the school website.
