Welcome to our school. I am privileged to be the Head at BFC School and have been in post since July 2021. This is a school with exceptional character and warmth, which you can sense when you visit.
A school that puts our students at the heart of everything we do to ensure a nurturing environment to instil confidence and belief in all of our students.
My mission as Head is to ensure that this school will continue to grow to be a truly inclusive and restorative organisation that strives to meet the needs of every individual. We are a dedicated team of staff who have built a school centred around excellent relationships and the desire to bring our very best each day.
The role of a Head of School is a challenging one and whilst I take the lead for our school the very best part of my day is spent working with our students and our incredible staff team. I want everyone to enjoy learning here – staff and students alike. As a school we aim to constantly improve in all that we do, evolving our offer to meet the ever-changing educational landscape in Blackpool. We are committed to being the best that we can be – that’s what it means to be part of BFC School.
I believe for our students to be successful we must engage and support parents and guardians to ensure the values instilled in school are reflected when at home and out in the community.
We believe that our listening culture enriches the educational experience for our students, creating an environment built on respect, and supporting the aspirations of all our students.
Our website gives a flavour of our school, but the only way to really get a sense of what our school is about is to visit us. You will be warmly welcomed.
