Welcome to Bramhope Primary School. Bramhope Primary is an exceptional, oversubscribed school with a reputation for providing an all-round education. Most building works were scheduled to be completed by 1 September. Unfortunately, there have been significant delays to the schedule. This means we have very restricted access to the site, no parking and disruption to facilities.
We anticipate that work will continue to October half term and apologise in advance to all parents and pupils.--> News from the Year 5 High Adventurers - 'We have had a great time scrambling in the stream and getting wet! We have been weaving in and out of rocks on our hike. After a tea of spaghetti bolgnese, we have found a way out of the indoor maze labrynth.
We should sleep well tonight!' And, as we move into July, we are delighted to welcome our newest school into the Trust! Welcome, @TrinityBingley - we are so happy that you have joined us! Here's to all the fun and #collaboration to follow.

Governing body (12 current, 4 former)
iAcademy trust: local governing body and trust board.1 governor is linked to a profile (all confirmed).
