Nestled in the heart of the historic village of Beaford, which is over 1,000 years old, Beaford Primary School has been at the center of our community since 1870. The school’s founding reflects a long-standing commitment to education in this rural area, where generations of local families have trusted Beaford to nurture and educate their children.

A School with Deep Roots

When Beaford Primary first opened its doors, it catered to just 80 pupils. In those early days, the school was a hub of village life, with schoolteachers living on-site, forming close ties with the local community. The original building, rich in character and charm, stood as a symbol of the village’s dedication to learning.

Growth and Development

In 1994, the school underwent significant changes to accommodate the growing needs of its pupils. A modern extension was added, creating the design we see today. This expansion ensured that Beaford Primary could continue to provide quality education in an improved, purpose-built environment, while still retaining its unique historical charm.

A New Chapter with TEAM Multi-Academy Trust

In 2022, Beaford Primary School entered a new phase of its journey by joining the TEAM Multi-Academy Trust. This partnership has strengthened our ability to provide even greater support and opportunities for our children. Working alongside other schools in the Trust, Beaford benefits from shared expertise, resources, and leadership, helping to enrich our curriculum and the educational experience of our pupils.

Our vision, rooted in the school’s long history, remains focused on fostering a strong sense of community, providing high-quality education, and preparing our children to thrive in an ever-changing world.

Continuing the Legacy

As we look ahead, Beaford Primary School remains dedicated to its core mission: serving the children and families of Beaford with the same dedication and passion as it has for over 150 years. Our rich history, combined with the modern resources and collaborative opportunities provided by TEAM Multi-Academy Trust, ensures that Beaford Primary will continue to be a place of learning, growth, and community for many years to come.
