WELCOME TO BECKFOOT PRIESTTHORPE

Beckfoot Priestthorpe is a smaller-than-average primary school and nursery nestled in the heart of Bingley. Our size is one of our greatest strengths - we truly know our children, their families, and our staff. This close-knit environment creates an exceptional sense of community where every child feels safe, valued and supported to become the very best version of themselves.

We are proud to be part of the Beckfoot Trust and to share the mission of "creating remarkable schools where no child is left behind." Our values of enjoy, learn, succeed guide everything we do and shape the culture of our school every day. There is a genuine sense of unity in our school, we celebrate each others achievements, support one another through challenges, and remain ambitious for the continued success of Beckfoot Priestthorpe. 

In June 2023, we were delighted to receive a Good judgement from Ofsted. Read the full report here: Beckfoot Priestthorpe Primary School & Nursery - Open - Find an Inspection Report - Ofsted
