Advantage Schools
A founding member of Advantage Schools
In 2017, Bedford Free School joined Elstow School to create an exceptional choice for families in Bedford and Elstow.
We believe that the quality of state primary and secondary education in the United Kingdom can be significantly better and are determined to show how.
We therefore strive to show what can be different. As part of Advantage Schools we adopt an outward-facing approach, welcoming colleagues from other schools, and hence we have links with the best performing schools.
Our staff have access to some of the best professional learning in the country, all in the name of very high expectations for pupils and staff.
"....WE BELIEVE THAT, GIVEN THE RIGHT CIRCUMSTANCES, EVERYBODY IS CAPABLE OF EXTRAORDINARY THINGS..."
Bedford Free School is a member of Advantage Schools, an ambitious Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) based in Bedford.
