Principal’s Welcome

Welcome to our Bradstow School website. We sincerely hope you find it informative and helpful.

Our vision for all in our Bradstow community is “Living and learning together within a Culture of Gentleness”. The central purpose of all who contribute to the provision at the school is to “nurture, teach and sustain” our young people, keeping them at the centre of everything we do and working harmoniously together so we can realise the goal of giving each young person a real life in community.
