Aspley Guise Lower School

We are a rural, community school for 4-9 year olds based in Central Bedfordshire. We aim to discover and develop the full potential of every child to enable them to make a positive contribution to the global environment.

In October 2007 Ofsted rated the school as Outstanding in all categories. In May 2011 Ofsted published an Interim Assessment Statement confirming that the Outstanding performance of the school had been maintained.

The majority of pupils achieve or exceed the expected standard in reading, writing and maths by the time they leave year 4.

Aspley Guise Lower School is the only lower school in Central Bedfordshire to hold the Gold Artsmark award, has a Gold Kitemark for Sport for the 4th year running, has achieved the Silver Primary Science Quality Mark and has been nominated as a Cultural Challenge School. The headteacher is a Local Leader of Education, the Early Years teacher is a Specialist Leader of Education for the Local Authority, and the senior teacher is a Local Authority assessment moderator.
