Welcome to
NCEA Bishop’s C OF E Primary
A note from our Headteacher
Welcome to NCEA Bishop’s Primary School. We are based at the Josephine Butler Campus in Ashington in the same building as Duke’s Secondary School and Castle School. We serve the wards of Ashington Central, College and Hirst and children can attend our school from our 2 year old provision to Year 6.
At Bishop’s Primary we aim for all children to grow in both their learning and their values.
This means we create a stimulating, safe and happy environment where every child feels valued and can thrive. We use the parable of the mustard seed to teach children about how they may begin small but over their time at school will achieve great things.
Just like seeds, we believe all children need LIGHT to grow and so we encourage all children to show our LIGHT values of Love, Inclusivity, Goodness, Hope and Truth at all times, whether in school or in the community.
We work together with our families to ensure we help our children to grow and flourish in all they do. We want our children to feel safe, be happy and love their learning. We want our families to feel welcome and supported by our school. In this way we are ‘all growing together’.
We hope you find the information on our website useful.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch with our school office.

With changes to the Free School Meals criteria in Northumberland, now is a good time to check whether your family could be eligible.
Free school meals are about so much more than the meal itself. ❤️
🥦 Healthy, nutritious food to give children the energy they need to learn and grow
🧠 Better concentration to help children get the most from their day at school
💷 Money back in your pocket, potentially saving your family £500+ each year
🏫 More support for your school, registering could also unlock additional Pupil Premium funding, helping schools provide extra opportunities and support for children.
And there’s something really important to know…
👉 Even if your child already receives universal free school meals in Reception, Year 1 or Year 2, you should still check whether you are eligible for Free School Meals. Registering could mean additional funding for your child’s school.
Quick check: If you receive Universal Credit, Income Support or qualifying tax credits, you could be eligible.
Apply online via the Northumberland Citizen Portal schadm.northumberland.gov.uk/CitizenPortal
it takes just a few minutes!
