IN ASSOCIATION WITH
EDUCATION
SUPPORT, ENCOURAGEMENT AND
GUIDANCE AT BISHOP CHALLONER
Life at Bishop Challoner is a seamless journey from nursery through to
sixth form, and the experiences gained will have a lasting value.
Our Junior School offers a safe and happy environment where children
love to learn. Pupils are confident, enthusiastic and keen to make progress.
Our families are supportive and visitors are always given a warm welcome.
Our highly skilled teachers are dedicated to pupils’ learning and equally
committed to their welfare. Teachers are fully involved in pastoral care
and all are involved with extracurricular activities. Pupils can participate
in a wide range of different sports and a great many after school clubs.
We provide a wide and balanced curriculum that challenges and excites.
Children throughout the Junior School have specialist teachers for music,
sport, modern foreign languages and IT. In Years 5 & 6 we introduce
Latin, and pupils in Year 6 have specialist teaching in maths and science
as we prepare them for the transition into the Senior School. Again, this
is made as seamless as possible as pupils are already familiar with the
Senior School staff, school layout and expectations.
We believe that, at Bishop Challoner, pupils are given the support,
encouragement and guidance to reach their potential and be the best they
can possibly be.
We are a Catholic school which welcomes all faiths. We value the strength,
loyalty and diversity of our school community.

Head of Key Stage 1 & 2
