I am delighted to welcome you to Buckingham Primary School and Nursery. We are extremely proud of the nurturing, happy environment we provide for our children, which underpins the strong and positive relationships we build with our children, families and the wider community we serve.
Our children love learning within our exceptional grounds, which include a multi-use games area, extensive green spaces and playing fields, a forest school, a large pond and natural area, as well as an impressive performing arts room. We also offer wrap-around care from 7.30am to 6.00pm, providing families with flexible, high-quality childcare to support busy working lives.
