About The School |
Billingborough Primary School is an active community school, located in a thriving fenland village, situated centrally between Sleaford, Bourne, Boston and Grantham.
The school last underwent an Ofsted It tells how "parents and carers praise the inclusive and friendly atmosphere of the school...They appreciate the strong emphasis on pupils’ well-being and feel that their children are well prepared for the next stage in their learning." The inspectors found our "pupils are articulate and keen to learn...read frequently and develop a love of language". They have a "broad and balanced curriculum which encourages pupils to reflect on issues in the world around them...Pupils understand the strong moral code of the school. They understand the importance of being trustworthy, respectful and resilient, and acting safely". Please click here to view the latest Ofsted Inspection report. . The school is very much "Ours", its rules and ethos of "Take Every Opportunity - TRY" were conceived by the children. Our recent inspection report states our children are " keen to explain their thoughts to each other. Pupils’ contributions are valued by adults in the school. They work together in mixed-age groups to share their opinions through the school’s ‘big conversations’. Leaders use the ideas of pupils."
The staff of the school are our strength and the atmosphere we aim to provide for our children is one of a family of learning.
Each member of our team plays a very special part in the whole school vision. All teachers have a strategic leadership role in the school, all our teaching assistants contribute to pupil's learning in way that is just as important as the class teachers.
The school building is one of character, dating from 1876 and is Grade 2 listed. The original school, with its period features, resonates with history, yet cleverly designed, behind our striking Victorian frontage, there are also newly built class rooms. These are all a very good size, bright and airy.
Completed in 2014, our fantastic hall is much bigger than what is usually found in a village school. Here we enjoy PE all year round as well as assemblies, performances and school clubs.
We benefit from playgrounds at the front and back of the school, which are separate to the Reception/Early Years space. At the rear of the school is a large, football pitch-sized sports field, and a trim trail is located at the side of the building.
In all of our spaces there are displays, art work and engaging noticeboards which motivate and support new learning as well as sharing and celebrating work the children have completed.
All of the above combine to make a wonderful learning environment in which our children flourish.
If our passion for our children matches what's important for you as a parent then please come and meet us. We try to find places for any family who wants to join us at what ever stage their children are in their primary school career.
