About our school...
The School is situated in the centre of Cople village, opposite the Church, off the A603 Bedford – Sandy Road.
It is a Community School, providing a sound education for boys and girls aged 4-plus to 9 years. It draws its pupils from the village itself, and welcomes applications for places (subject to availability) from outside its official catchment area.
The School was founded by the Duke of Bedford in 1869 and is housed both in the original brick building and in modern extensions. It consists of three classrooms, a library, computer area, music/assembly area and ancillary facilities.
Outside, in addition to the playground, there is an adventure play area with a range of apparatus. Beyond this lies a very attractive environmental garden which includes a pond, a wild flower bank, vegetable plots, Victorian flower and herb beds, hedgerow and a small shrubbery.
The School roll is approximately 60, organised into 3 class groups as follows:
