It is my very great pleasure to welcome you to Bishop Fox's Community School.

Our ethos is built upon a deeply held concern for the well-being, achievements and dreams of young people.

We embrace the notion that young people should enjoy and achieve in their time at school.  Whilst examination results are critical to children's future lives, so too is a safe and happy environment within which they can enjoy the opportunities and experiences beyond the classroom that nurtures them to become independent learners and responsible adults.

Our KS3 and KS4 results have seen tremendous improvement in recent years and place us in the top ten performing secondary schools in Somerset and the top 20% of schools nationally.  In 2008 the schools 5+ A/C rate rose to 69% which was nearly 10% above target!  Targets for the school have been smashed this year and the expectation for 2009 is for more of the same.

Our responsibility and commitment is to enable our students to achieve and be at the forefront in shaping the world of tomorrow.

We welcome into our school community the parents of students who want to learn, experience and grow into informed, high achieving, well-rounded and delightful young people.

Please contact the school if at any time you would like to visit us and discover more about what we have to offer.
