Welcome

A warm welcome to Bishop Road Primary School! I am very proud to be the Head Teacher of our vibrant and exciting school. Bishop Road is a welcoming and happy place to learn and grow, drawing in over 800 children from the local area.

Gillian Powe
Head Teacher

We have a dedicated team of governors, professional and friendly staff and a hugely supportive group of parents and carers working together to give our children the best education possible. For us, primary means fundamental and we believe we are preparing children for their future lives through ensuring the highest standards in English, Mathematics and a wide range of experiences across many subjects.

I hope you enjoy exploring our school website and learning about the exciting things that are going on at Bishop Road.
