We set ourselves apart with our OFSTED Outstanding personal development. From our 50 Things enrichment promise, to our bespoke Forest Edge Curriculum, we nurture every child, seeing the best in them and all they can bring to the world.
By sharing our expertise, passion, facilities and more across the three schools, we can bring ambitious learning to life, all within idyllic grounds and smaller-than-average class sizes. It really is the best of both worlds! Breamore, Hyde and Hale all enjoy their own distinctive characters and spirits as schools.
Practically, we share a leadership team, governing body and staff development opportunities, as well as bringing the year groups together several times a year for celebration days and trips. The children themselves really benefit from being part of a small school family but equally having access to a larger federation family.
Breamore is the biggest of our three schools with 74 children currently on roll. We pride ourselves on our nurturing and inclusive environment. We are on the A338 and provide wrap around care from 7.45am - 5.30pm.
