About Beddington Infants' School
Beddington Infants’ School – where pupils and staff “ Reach for the Stars” and achieve “ outstanding “ results.
Beddington Infants’ is a three form entry L.A. maintained school for boys and girls aged 3-7. The school has 9 classes and a Nursery; there are usually 30 children in each class in the main school and 26 children attending in each Nursery session.
In May 2006, Beddington Infants’ received an “ outstanding and exemplary” ruling from OFSTED across the whole Every Child Matters agenda. We see this as a vindication of the inclusive, child-centred ethos of the school, encompassing;
• High standards, positive attitudes, promotion of self-worth for pupils and staff;
• Respect for each other;
• Taking responsibility for our actions and environment;
• Working in a stimulating and safe environment, and
• Appreciating humour!!!!
As a school, we are constantly looking to provide new experiences for our pupils. Whilst we are extremely proud of our OFSTED ruling, we know that there is always room for improvement and are using the seal of approval as a stepping stone to look at different ways in which pupils can be stimulated, encouraged and enthused, to complement the existing successful formula!!
