Headteacher's Welcome
Welcome to The Boyle and Petyt Primary School, situated in idyllic grounds on the Bolton Abbey Estate in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. This website aims to give you a sense of our wonderful community, our fantastic children and the rich and varied learning experiences we provide. Whether it is starting out in our nurturing Early Years Unit; building on those firm foundations in our purposeful KS1 and KS2 classrooms; exploring and playing on the spacious playing field (with breath-taking views of the Wharfe Valley); den-building and whittling during Forest Schools in our extensive woodland area; or during one of our many fascinating trips, our friendly and experienced team ensure all of our children are given the space, guidance and opportunities to thrive and become the best version of themselves. For over 150 years, we have provided educational excellence for the children of Beamsley, Storiths, Hazlewood, Draughton, Bolton Abbey and beyond. Less than 10 minutes from Ilkley and Skipton, and less than 5 minutes from Addingham and Embsay, at Boyle and Petyt we also welcome children from around Craven and Wharfedale. If you are considering where would be the best place for your child to spark a life-long love of learning (we cater for children from their 3rd birthday), please feel free to contact us and book a personalised tour with me, to experience our wonderful school and learn about our F.A.B. values. We strive to prepare our children for later life by learning about our core values of Friendliness, Ambition and Bravery: values which will serve them well, whichever direction they choose. Best Wishes, Peter Corner Headteacher |
