Bradley School is a small, friendly primary school in an idyllic rural location, offering children an excellent start to their educational life, in a safe village location.

We are conveniently situated on the outskirts of Ashbourne, Derbyshire, just off the A517 Ashbourne to Belper trunk road on Yew Tree Lane, Bradley.

The school offers small classes, top quality teaching in all National Curriculum subjects and many additional benefits.  As well as academic excellence we also have a strong emphasis on good behaviours, self-confidence and independent learning in order to encourage children to achieve their full potential.

Our last OFSTED inspection said “This outstanding school is valued highly and supported exceptionally well by everyone connected with it.  Pupils’ achievement is exceptional because the headteacher and staff work very well together to ensure that the quality of teaching is consistently high and at times is inspirational…teaching engages pupils and brings subjects to life.  As a result, pupils are keen to learn and work hard.”

We achieve excellent academic results.  As a small school we are not allowed to publish the results of our SATs tests, however the vast majority of children reach, or exceed national standards.
