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.–
Mrs. A Thompson, HeadteacherBishop’s Primary School
