I am very proud to welcome you to the website of Burghill Community Academy. I hope it will give you a flavour of our school and its vision; painting a picture of the opportunities offered to our children as they develop into creative, resourceful and resilient learners.
We are lucky that our school is set in the heart of the beautiful Herefordshire countryside within fantastic grounds and facilities. We generally have between 90 and 100 children on roll, taught in 4 classes in a safe, friendly and welcoming learning environment by a talented staff team with the highest expectations for every child.
We strive to teach a creative and varied curriculum, enriched by a range of opportunities and experiences both and in and out of the classroom. We follow the principles of a Values Education school and are proud that our children demonstrate good manners and respect at all times; recognising their responsibilities in contributing to a successful wider community.
It is our aim to develop resourceful and responsible young people who have successfully acquired the essential learning skills that they will need for life. We look forward to welcoming you and your children to our happy and popular school.
