A NOTE FROM THE CEO...
However, we are confident that the progress we are making will quickly address these historical weaknesses. The Primary phase continues to be a real strength of the school, with progress well above national averages for many years. In the Secondary phase, behaviour, attendance, and the overall culture have improved significantly, thanks to the impact of the restructured leadership team.
It is with real confidence that I can now confirm the future leadership of BSCA will continue under Mr Mallett and Mr Watson, operating as Joint Headteachers. They are both committed, passionate leaders, and the school is in very strong hands moving forward.
Most importantly, I want to say how incredibly proud we are of your children. They continue to rise to the high expectations we set and are a credit to you and our community. We are privileged to serve a community that is fiercely loyal and proud, and your support means everything to us.
Tuesday Humby, CEO

Key Stage 2 Examination and Assessment Results
We are proud of the progress our children make during their time with us. While this year’s Key Stage 2 results did not reflect the high standards we usually achieve, we remain committed to ensuring every child reaches their full potential. Many of our pupils begin their primary journey with very low starting points, and we work hard to help them catch up and thrive. With targeted support, high-quality teaching, and a continued focus on every child’s learning, we are confident that outcomes will rise again and reflect the strong progress our pupils make throughout their time here.
