Why Brackenfield School's size is its superpower!
At Brackenfield, a one form entry school, we fully recognise and support the belief that small class sizes represent an excellent return on investment.
However, it is the actual small school size that we believe is the true magic of Brackenfield.
Many schools claim they have a family feel and the vast majority deliver a robust and effective pastoral system. However, it is small schools and more specifically single form entry schools that can truly behave like a family, rather than merely claim to be like one.
At Brackenfield School, all of the staff know all of the pupils and their families. Everyone is invested in the pupils’ success, embodying the saying that it takes a village to raise a child.
The teachers are able to be flexible, responsive and adaptive with their lessons. A personalised education is the result.
Ultimately, the ethos of our school is that we value the human connection above all. The relationships within our school community create the recipe for success. We believe our small school size is our superpower!
