We currently have spaces available in Year 5 & 6. Our school features a 20m indoor heated pool, offering weekly swimming lessons for pupils. We provide full wraparound care on-site and offer approximately 20 extra-curricular clubs each term. If you would like to visit the school, please contact us.
Welcome to our school website!
Welcome to Bishop’s Waltham Junior School. I am incredibly proud to lead a school where children are encouraged to enjoy, learn and achieve together each and every day. Our aim is simple: to help every child become the very best version of themselves — academically, personally and socially.
At Bishop’s Waltham Junior, learning is designed to be engaging, challenging and full of opportunities to spark curiosity. We set high expectations for all pupils and have a strong track record of helping them achieve impressive academic outcomes, while also recognising and nurturing the full range of talents they bring.
We are committed to developing well-rounded individuals who are kind, confident and respectful. Behaviour across the school is very good, and our dedicated staff team provides high-quality pastoral support alongside excellent teaching. Children with additional needs are supported through robust systems and the expertise of our qualified SENDCO, ensuring that every learner is valued and included.
Beyond the classroom, pupils enjoy a rich selection of enrichment opportunities, including weekly swimming lessons in our on-site heated pool and an exciting programme of sporting, musical and creative activities. These experiences help our children build resilience, discover new interests and learn more about themselves as developing young citizens.
It is a privilege to work with such enthusiastic pupils, dedicated staff and supportive families. If you would like to know more about life at Bishop’s Waltham Junior School or arrange a visit, please do get in touch — we would be delighted to welcome you.

Our School Vision and Values
At Bishop’s Waltham Junior School, we are proud to share our refined school vision and values with our community.
Following reflection and discussion, we have taken the opportunity to sharpen and clarify our vision, ensuring it clearly reflects what we stand for as a school and what we want every child to experience during their time with us. This is not a change in direction, but a stronger articulation of the values and principles that already underpin our work.
Our Vision
'Together, we enjoy learning and achieve highly, nurturing confident, capable and compassionate children who thrive academically, socially and emotionally, and are ready for the next stage of their education.'
What This Means for Our Children
Our vision reflects our commitment to developing the whole child. We want every pupil to:
- Enjoy their learning and feel inspired in the classroom
- Achieve highly and take pride in their work
- Grow in confidence and independence
- Build positive relationships with others
- Understand and manage their emotions
- Be well prepared for the next stage of their education
Our Values in Action
Our vision is supported by our core values: Respect, Responsibility, Kindness, Resilience, Independence and a Positive Attitude
These values are part of everyday life at our school and are reinforced through our shared expectations of being:
Ready • Respectful • Safe
This means that pupils are supported to:
- Be ready to learn and take on new challenges
- Be respectful to themselves, others and the wider world
- Be safe in their actions and choices
A Consistent Approach Across the School
By refining our vision, we are ensuring a clear and consistent message across all aspects of school life—from the classroom to the playground, and in our communication with families.
Over the coming weeks, pupils will explore the vision and values through assemblies and classroom activities, and you will begin to see this reflected more clearly in our displays, newsletters and wider communication.
We are proud of the strong partnership we have with our families and wider community. By working together, we can ensure that every child:
- Feels happy, safe and valued
- Enjoys learning and achieves their best
- Develops into a confident, capable and compassionate individual
Looking Ahead
Our vision will continue to guide everything we do as a school. Most importantly, it will be seen in the daily experiences of our pupils—their learning, their relationships and their successes.
We look forward to continuing to work together to support every child to enjoy, learn and achieve.
