School Awards

Food For Life

We are proud to be in receipt of a Gold, Silver and Bronze award for the Food For Life Partnership. We are learning about healthy food, growing food and food sustainability with the support of the Soil Association and Taylor Shaw

You can find out more about the Food For Life Partnership here.

To increase our knowledge about healthy eating and organic food, we are forming a partnership with Cross Lanes Organic Farm. Their staff are helping us by supplying organic meat for our school meals and by visiting the school to teach us more about organic farming. We are hoping to arrange visits to the farm and to take place in cookery sessions and planting and growing and other jobs on their site. We are also planning to have some organic cookery demonstrations for parents and the community. Watch this space for more details as events are planned.

International School Award

We have also been awarded the British Council’s prestigious International School Award in recognition of its work to bring the world into the classroom.

The International School Award is a badge of honour for schools that do outstanding work in international education. Bowes’ international work includes projects, visits and cross curricular work with a school in Sri Lanka, teachers in Chile and global learning embedded across the school curriculum.

The School has been awarded a Basic Skills (Primary) Quality Mark Award for the fourth time. The Basic Skills Quality Mark promotes, supports and celebrates progress and improvements made by a school in English and Mathematics.
