Welcome from the Headmaster

BCPS is an all-action school, well known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere and its high standard of pastoral care. We prioritise the children's enjoyment of school, the fulfilling of their differing potential, the provision of a very broad range of opportunities and the building of a warm and strong character.

Features of the school include:

• 'The quality of pupils' learning, attitudes and behaviour is very good and is a strength of the school... The teaching is characterised by high expectations which often lead to very good levels of achievement and to local or national honours'. (Independent Schools Inspectorate 2005)

• One of the strongest sports departments in the region - BCPS has recently held the county titles in rugby and cricket. Currently we are the netball and tennis county champions. We also excel in swimming and football

• Exceptional music with two choirs, two selective vocal ensembles, two orchestras, a concert band and various groups for guitars, strings, wind and percussion. This year, there are five concerts and three shows. The department is supported by 31 visiting music teachers

• Many opportunities for dance and drama, including a thriving programme for LAMDA coaching (speech and drama awards)

• Renowned art and DT departments with an impressive track record of success in national competitions

• Around 80 extracurricular clubs/activities at lunchtime and after school with a huge range of trips and house competitions. 'Achievement and quality in the activities are outstanding in relation to the ages and aptitudes of the pupils'. (ISI 2005)
