Any experience of Bellenden Primary School?

[thefords]

I am looking at transferring my daughter from current school.

Any experiences from Bellenden Primary School would be much appreciated. Any thoughts on how the new development will affect it?

I don't know anything about Bellenden aside from a fair few parents removing their children from that school to go to the new one .

School is being rebuilt and expanded - present takes one class, will take 2 in the future. On track to open expanded establishment next year. People wanting to transfer to Belham - be aware that they have Y1 and reception open, they won't (correctly) take older kids as they don't have classes open outside these 2).

KS2 level 4 - 86% - one of the higher in Southwark and above the average. Good value added scores across the board. Slightly higher than average absence, but I assume this will be parents extending their stay at that darling little villa in Tuscany rather than letting kids run wild in SE15. Ofsted rated "good"
