Information about the school

Burham Church of England Primary School is a small school set in beautiful countryside. We are a distinctive church school based within the Rochester Diocese.

Our vision is for all our children at Burham CEP School to ‘Shine’. We believe that all children should be given opportunities to ‘Shine’ and discover their true unique potential through rich, engaging new experiences that enable them to be successful, happy and independent. We were delighted with our recent SIAMS report (February 2024), which recognised the strengths of the school, referencing how pupils thrive academically within a supportive community. In addition to our SIAMS, we are thrilled with our recent Ofsted inspection grading of 'Good' (June 2024.)

At Burham Church of England Primary School we respect, value and include each and everybody. It is our aim to provide children with a safe, happy learning environment in which every member of the school community will thrive. Our aim is for children to build enriching relationships and become responsible, caring and successful citizens.

We are a caring and friendly team who are very supportive of each other. We have high expectations of ourselves as well as the children, as evidenced through our last Ofsted inspection.

We are very close to Bluebell Hill as well as connected to the Peters Village bridge between Wouldham and Halling. The school is within easy reach of both the M2 and M20 motorways and therefore easily accessible from the Medway or Maidstone area.
