Welcome to Brimsdown

Brimsdown is a thriving nursery and primary school at the heart of our local community, where we all strive to build a better future together.

From the three-year-olds who join our Ofsted Outstanding early years provision, through to our amazing Year 6 pupils who are ready to embark on their next chapter, we nurture and inspire a love of learning, a respect for others and a determination to make a difference. Our thoughtful curriculum and range of extracurricular activities helps children to grow into confident, ambitious and kind young people.

We are proud to be an inclusive school, dedicated to ensuring that no one is left behind. We have an autism hub and deaf resource base which supports children with additional needs and our experienced SEN team is here to support you and your child.

Our local neighbourhood work, including support for families, courses for parents and charity partnerships, ensures that we are at the centre of the community we serve.

Brimsdown is a special place to learn and play. If you would like to see us in action, please get in touch to book a tour. We’re looking forward to welcoming you.

This is an inclusive, kind, and happy school. Pupils behave exceptionally well around the school. They are polite and are keen to help others. Pupils follow an interesting and well-thought-out curriculum. This exceeds the scope of the national curriculum. A range of interesting trips and activities enrich the curriculum and develop pupils’ skills. Pupils are proud of their school.

Learning at Brimsdown

Wellbeing

Brimsdown is a welcoming school where everyone is valued. We are passionate about ensuring that our children feel happy and safe at school and that they always have someone to talk to. We also offer support and advice to our families.

The very strong ethos of inclusion is exemplified by the teaching of British Sign Language. All pupils learn to sign, which means that they can communicate with the deaf pupils in the school, as well as learning a useful life skill. There is a strong focus on developing pupils as active young citizens. Many pupils take on additional responsibilities such as reading buddies and sports leaders. Pupils have been involved in campaigns to raise the profile of British Sign Language at football grounds.
