Welcome to Polam School
Thank you for your interest. Please take time to browse through our website, which we hope will give you a glimpse of life at Polam School. We hope that this website will give you an outline of the school's organisation, a sense of the atmosphere and the aspirations and achievements of our pupils and staff.
If you are considering Polam School for your child, I hope you will feel encouraged to book a tour with me so that you can come and experience for yourself the friendly and purposeful learning environment.
We are an independent Pre-Preparatory School for children from 18 months - 8 years old. Boys and girls transfer mainly to the Harpur Trust Schools in Bedford at 7+ or 8+.
We believe strongly in providing a sound, traditionally based education whilst at the same time keeping pace with modern developments. Although academic success is very important, we are keen to provide a framework in which all kinds of talents are able to flourish. Music, Art, Sport and Drama are key features of our yearly calendar.
We believe that education is a partnership between home and school. Working together is essential in helping the children achieve their full potential. We will continue to foster a caring environment, where your child is encouraged to grow in confidence and gain the skills required for dealing with the many new challenges ahead.
If you would like a prospectus or to book a tour, please look at the contact page for details or call my secretary.
I look forward to welcoming you to Polam School.
Janet Geliher
Associate Headteacher
