A note from our Headteacher
Welcome to NCEA Bishop’s Primary School. We are based at the Josephine Butler Campus in Ashington in the same building as Duke’s Secondary School and Castle School. We serve the wards of Ashington Central, College and Hirst and children can attend our school from our 2 year old provision to Year 6.
At Bishop’s Primary we aim for all children to grow and flourish in both their learning and their values. This means we create a stimulating, safe and happy environment where every child feels valued and can thrive. We use the parable of the mustard seed to teach children about how they may begin small but over their time at school will achieve great things.
We encourage all children to ‘let their LIGHT shine’ by showing the NCEA Trust’s LIGHT values of Love, Inclusivity, Goodness, Hope and Truth at all times, whether in school or in the community.
We hope you find the information on our website useful. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to get in touch with our school office.
Mrs A Thompson, Headteacher

Today some of the children celebrated VE Day with the local community at Lynemouth Pavillion. The rest of us waved to the Tiger Moth planes, which treat us to a special flypast.
The wait is over! We've been so excited to share our new look aligned with our future goals and honours our strong foundation. We're committed to connecting even more deeply to our growing community.
Let us know what you think and keep a look out for our trailer! 👀

Thank you to Razzamataz for running a brilliant explorers drama workshop in school for Y1/2 and Y2/3. Here they are using low gravity steps to move the balloons around like Neil Armstrong and doing freeze frames of their time on Christopher Columbus's ship @NCEA_Trust
