Who We Are

Bellevue Place Education Trust (BPET) is a multi-academy trust which supports 12 primary schools across London and Berkshire.

BPET is a growing family of autonomous schools that strive for excellence for the communities they serve. Our staff are empowered to balance academic rigour and curricular breadth to inspire confidence, creativity and respect. Our pupils are at the heart of everything we do as to LEARN, ENJOY and SUCCEED.

LEARN

We offer a breadth and ambition of provision that supports an exceptional academic education, nurturing every child’s learning journey – regardless of ability, background or special educational needs – and helping them develop a lifelong passion for learning.

ENJOY

We believe learning should be enjoyable, and that through this enjoyment children develop life-long learning habits. We achieve this by creating opportunities for all children to reach their full potential at school, and to enjoy school life – helping to ensure pupils grow into happy, independent and confident learners.

SUCCEED

We strive for excellence, aiming to ignite ambition, aspiration, pride and a desire to contribute to society. We prepare our pupils to approach life with confidence, purpose and integrity.

Working together: the BPET way

We achieve far more by learning, supporting and collaborating within and across our network of schools and communities. We do so with an unwavering and shared commitment to equality, diversity, inclusion, and respect.
