We are an established 'Good' primary school based in Bungay, Suffolk. Together with twelve other schools, we are part of ASSET Education; a thriving, multi-academy Trust who seek to equip and empower the next generation of children to create a more compassionate, equitable and sustainable world where they personally and collectively thrive. 

As a group of schools working in collaboration as one entity, we focus on achieving high standards and excellent practice across all schools, so that every individual has the skills, knowledge, behaviours, values and support they need in order to be the best they can be and to make their contribution to the benefit of all. 

Our Trust's values:

Excellence - we strive for excellence in every aspect of school life and achievement, tackling disadvantage and inequality with determination and a desire for success. We relentlessly pursue improvement keeping the highest expectations of all and for all. We work with professionalism and efficiency and are self-disciplined, resilient and innovative in order to achieve our aims.

Empowerment - with a shared commitment to our vision and aspirations we empower individuals to be the best they can be. We balance ownership with accountability and build on strengths providing opportunities with positivity and optimism. We encourage trust by delegation and develop energetic, enthusiastic and committed leadership for improvement at all levels.

Engagement - seeking out partnerships with others we value collaboration, cooperation and inclusion for the benefit of all. We take responsibility, acting with commitment, care and respect. We balance support with challenge to seek out the best. We commit to share, innovate and celebrate and require reflection and optimism.

Equity - recognising that starting points and barriers to learning are individual and unique to every learner we seek to provide whatever support, guidance and intervention we can in order to tackle disadvantage and discrimination wherever it exists. We strive to do everything within our capacity to remove the barriers to social mobility, working towards social justice.

Our school motto – Aspire, Encourage, Celebrate, Learn, Achieve – captures what we hope to facilitate for all our stakeholders, from pupils and their families to our staff and other learning partners in the wider community. 

We also embed 'Ready, Respectful and Safe' as our simple school rules to enable all our children to embrace them, whether they are three years or eleven years of age. 

We are ready to learn – we arrive at school on time, we have our equipment ready and we show that we are listening

We are respectful – we listen when others speak and we respect the property of our friends and the school.

We are safe – we move around school in a safe manner, we follow instructions to keep ourselves safe on school trips, we use equipment safely and we stay safe online. We have kind hands and feet.

We have a broad and balanced curriculum which inspires our pupils to learn, where safeguarding is effective and pupils are listened to and feel safe. 'To keep you safe and to help you learn' is our mantra.

We are incredibly proud of our school and would be delighted to welcome new children. We know that finding a school for your child is a very important decision. If you are interested in applying for a school place at Bungay Primary School, please visit our admission page here.
