National Nurturing School Award

We want our school to be at the heart of our community and we have worked tirelessly to achieve this.

We have invested time and resources into ensuring that our school has developed into a nurturing environment, not only for our children but also for the families and the extended community.

In November 2018 Beechfield started the National Nurturing Schools Programme - a 2-year journey to achieve a Nurture Award by embedding the 6 Principles of Nurture across our school.

In February 2021, we were assessed by Wendy Roden, National Training Development and Innovation Manager for Nurture UK, to discuss our journey and to give her the opportunity to speak to staff, children, parents, Governors and community partners about our achievements over the past 2 years. We were proud to say that our wonderful school achieved this very special National Award.

We have continued with our good work and have been reaccredited as a National Nurturing School in June 2024.
