We wholly believe in the tangible benefits of an age 2-13 structure, minimising the need to change schools, and the family environment that a through school engenders. The through model can work to outstanding effect, particularly with regard to pastoral care, student welfare and the quality of relationships between each member of the school community. Our skills and experience in these areas are crucial and, alongside our innovative approaches and the wide-ranging opportunities we provide for our pupils, help create our unique ethos.

Our aim is to inspire all children with a love of learning and to create special and happy memories of their time with us. Children learn best when they feel safe to take on challenges, are interested and feel valued. Learning is celebrated and openly admired.

We have a lot to be proud about at Biggleswade Academy. We have well-resourced, spacious rooms and attractive surroundings as well as wrap-around care facilities. The extensive school grounds have been developed to support learning, providing an attractive and safe environment for all children to enjoy. The school is a happy, stimulating and caring place and we expect high standards of behaviour and good manners throughout the school. The Academy Ofsted report in December 2014 cited our pupils’ behaviour and safety as being ‘Outstanding’ saying that pupils ‘...are exceptionally well prepared for life in modern British democratic society and they have a strong sense of belonging’.

We would be pleased to show you around Biggleswade Academy, for you to experience the friendly atmosphere, and give you the opportunity to meet the staff and see the children as they work and play together.
