Welcome to Bosbury CE Primary School

A very warm welcome to our thriving and friendly school where our kind, caring and hardworking pupils are at the very heart of everything we do.

You will find us in a picturesque rural conservation area in the shadow of the scenic Malvern Hills, just four miles from the popular market town of Ledbury in Herefordshire. Our pupils have the advantage of learning at the centre of a rural farming community, also being lucky enough to have our beautiful village church situated directly opposite the school up the drive. While we are extremely fortunate to be situated in such a close-knit location, we also ensure that our pupils experience many opportunities in the wider community such as themed visits to places of interest such as museums and galleries, literary and poetry festivals, music and theatre performances, and of course the ever-popular residential trips!

We are a welcoming, all-inclusive school where every child matters, and we focus on the specific needs of each and every one of our pupils. Our enriching, thematic curriculum incorporates real life experiences and is designed to enable all children to succeed. We offer modern foreign languages, quality sports coaching through a partnership with the Kidderminster Harriers foundation, with swimming lessons also taking place at the nearby Halo Leisure Centre in Ledbury.

We also offer exciting forest school opportunities with our own sizeable forest school site located at the top of our school field, with recent years seeing the addition of a greenhouse to support gardening at school, along with a developing school pond project.

Bosbury School also has an extremely strong musical and art influence, with several extra-curricular global and themed days contributing to a well-rounded and stimulating education, furthered by our exciting links with schools in both Rwanda and Tamworth.

Our staff are committed to the all-round development of our pupils and carry out regular progress checks to make sure children are reaching their full potential. We aim to enable our pupils to gain self-esteem, confidence, independence, imagination and generosity of
spirit. For working parents, we are lucky enough to have the added advantage and reassurance of an on-site independently-run nursery at Jack-In-The-Box which operates at neighbouring Leadon Lodge as well as Crib Cottage for the youngest children just over the road. This highly professional and expert team provides both a breakfast club as well as after school care, with older children now being able to use the more spacious facilities at Bosbury Parish Hall in the evenings. 

Our school also offers Thrive support, with a member of staff (accompanied by our lovely school dog Wilf!) being fully trained in mental health to offer full support to both pupils and parents during these challenging times, and we have the added advantage of a school crossing patrol operating at both the start and end of the school day. Six of our staff also hold current paediatric first aid qualifications

In our 2011 and 2014 Ofsted Inspections, we achieved the   grade of 'Outstanding'. We become a Global Expert Centre in 2015, were awarded Arts Mark Gold in 2015, and have also received Sports Mark Gold for several years running.

 In 2015, the school also received a SIAMS 'Outstanding' rating (click the logo below).

We are proud of our pupils. They take an active role in their wider world and ask ‘big’ questions about it. They are confident, articulate, kind to each other and polite to staff and visitors. They actively participate in our Arts Council, School
Council and as playground buddies. Our choir, drumming and drama group are often out and about performing, and over 80% of our children attend an after-school club.

We hope you find all the information you need on our website, but if you have any questions or would like to arrange a visit, please do not hesitate to contact our main reception on 01531 640276, or email admin@bosbury.hereford.sch.uk. 

Enjoy exploring our ever-growing website, and again a warm Bosbury welcome to our fantastic school. We welcome all feedback from parents which can be made on the OFSTED Parent View website at https://parentview.ofsted.gov.uk/.
