"Bishop Bridgeman Church of England Primary School is living up to its foundation as a Church school and is enabling pupils and adults to flourish."

 

Strengths

• Collective worship is a joyful and enriching experience, offering meaningful opportunities for

pupils and adults to grow spiritually. This is thoughtfully considered and delivered to reflect the

school's vision and values, ensuring inclusivity and engagement.

• Sensitively planned, explicit opportunities for spiritual development add deeper meaning to the

vision driven curriculum. It is impacting positively on pupils’ understanding of themselves, each

other and their appreciation of the world.

• Nurturing care and the focus on wellbeing is tangible. It is an effective outworking of the school

vision of ‘love God, love yourself and love your neighbor.’ Pupils are encouraged to love

themselves and relationships are supportive.

• Injustice is confidently challenged by pupils. They share their work with other schools across the

diocese and nationally. This impacts strongly on pupils’ social, emotional and spiritual

development in school and beyond.

• Pupils value the safe space that religious education (RE) offers them to ask questions and to share

their viewpoints. The opportunities for reflection and deeper learning within lessons support

pupils to develop respect for each other.
