It has been a pleasure to work alongside the leadership team at Bantock Primary for the last 10 years. As part of the PiXL network of over 1200 Primary schools, we frequently ask them to share their inspirational practice at National Conferences and also through direct support to other school leaders. One of the many things that makes Bantock special is that the school has a deep understanding of their school community and, with that insight, they go to great lengths to ensure that ALL children at Bantock thrive and achieve their potential.
