More about Bexton
Bexton Primary School is two form entry primary school situated on a 4-5 acre site in the market town of Knutsford, Cheshire. The school is in a semi-rural location, surrounded on two sides by farm land but in close vicinity to a number of popular housing estates. The school was originally built as separate Infant and Junior schools, with a new corridor build in 2012 enabling the two buildings to be joined together. The EYFS area is open plan with full access to a dedicated outdoor provision, the remainder of the school is arranged as 12 classrooms and separate learning hub used to promote small group learning. The school has an extensive library that is housed within the school corridors with space for the children to sit and read, there is a children’s kitchen and various areas set up to facilitate small group working. School dinners are cooked on-site in the school kitchen. Outside, the school has an extensive “Astro-Turf” pitch, a school garden containing 15 raised beds, a chicken coop. two woodland areas, hard surface playgrounds and an extensive grassed area incorporating football pitches. The school can cater for up to 420 children (14 classes of 30 children). In September 2015 there were 432 children on the school roll. In 2015 we increased our ‘Pupil Admission Number’ to cope with local demand and provided three smaller classes of 25 in Reception.
