Welcome to Billinghay Church of England Primary School.

Our school is a single form entry primary school in the rural village of Billinghay. We take children from the ages of 4 years (Foundation 2 / Reception) until the age of 11 years (Year 6). If you are considering our school for your child you're warmly invited to come and look around school.

Our values statement is at the centre of all that we do:

 “Working together to nurture, raise aspirations and promote life in its fullness. Through our Christian ethos we seek to develop happy, enquiring minds, a spirit of curiosity, respect, and resilience. We value every member of our school community for who they are and through challenge, support and building positive relationships, we pursue excellence in all we do.

‘Ask and it shall be given, seek and you will find, knock and the door will be opened.’ Matthew 7.7

Our aim is for every child to reach their potential as a unique, well rounded individual and as a valuable citizen in our local, national and global community. We achieve this through the effective delivery of a broad and stimulating values based curriculum, combining the acquisition of knowledge with the development of key skills.

This website aims to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing up to date information for parents, pupils and the wider community.

We hope that you enjoy your visit to our website, and that you find the information you are looking for. To request paper copies of any of the information on the website then please see our office staff. Please feel free to contact the school direct with any queries you may have.

Kind regards

Mr R Allen

Here at Billinghay Church of England Primary School lessons are always fun. Mr Allen will show you around our many classrooms and you will be sure to enjoy it. All the pupils here at our school get wonderful rewards for their incredibly hard work, during the week and at our Gold Book act of worship every Friday. We hope to see you in the future at Billinghay Church of England Primary School. Holly, Reuben and Cara Year 5 pupils in the Hawk class.
