About Meadow Primary School

The Meadow is a school where pupils, staff, families and the wider community are all welcomed and feel a sense of belonging. Our aim is for pupils to experience memorable learning through enriching provision, which includes and challenges all. By equipping pupils with skills and knowledge within an accessible, engaging and inspiring curriculum, our aspiration is for children to be independent and confident lifelong learners. Our 3 Golden Rules that sit alongside our vision and values are:

• We Respect

• We Care

• We Learn

The school is located in the village of Balsham which is situated in South Cambridgeshire, approximately 10 miles from the centre of Cambridge and also sits on the Essex/Suffolk borders.

Our school caters for pupils aged 4– 11 years. The school has a mixed catchment area and is not affiliated to a particular religious denomination. We currently have 8 classes in school. Our pupil admission number each academic year is 40. This means that our class structure can change each year. Some classes are mixed age, whilst others are straight year groups.

This academic year we have 4 Infant classes and 4 Junior classes. The school has 2 large playgrounds, one for the Infants and one for the Juniors. We also have a large field that joins the two playgrounds, a Forest School area and a separate secure outdoor area for the Reception children and the Infants which can be accessed all day long. We are fortunate to be able to use the local church and the recreation ground for other events too.
