| Welcome to Bures
CEVC Primary School
Bures Primary School is situated in the heart
of Bures, a Suffolk Village with the River Stour running through
the middle. The river marks the boundary between Essex and
Suffolk. Children living on the Essex side of the village
can walk across the new millennium footbridge to School. Bures
School is a Church of England Voluntary Controlled School
which means A school set up by a voluntary body, usually a
church body (generally Church of England). Totally funded
by the LEA, which also employs the staff and manages admissions.
A V.C. school retains some residual rights regarding religious
worship.
There are six classes at the school. The
Nursery class offers part-time Foundation Stage education
in the mornings. The other classes for children from Reception
Age to Year 4 (4 – 9 years) are organised in single
year groups each with a class teacher, and each offering broad
and balanced programmes of study in line with the National
Curriculum. Learning Support Assistants work with teachers
in all classes. The Nursery Teacher is assisted by a Nursery
Nurse.
The National Literacy Strategy and National
Numeracy Strategy are fully implemented. Children are taken
on school visits and visitors come in to school to enrich
the teaching and learning.
We have high expectations for all pupils
at Bures School. Our key aim is
ACHIEVEMENT WITH ENJOYMENT
