From the Bentley Church of England Primary School
Bentley School was built in 1842 and expanded and modernised in 1914, 1986 (to include Froyle children), 1994 and 1996. In 199899 three new classrooms were built to complete the expansion to a one-form entry school with seven carpeted classrooms, practical and IT areas, a hall with stage lighting and PE equipment and a library. A new, larger hall was erected in 2009, and music rooms were added in 2002. The library had a complete renovation and relocation in 2011 to a new location. In the woods, a trim route was installed, and the Year R outdoor space was updated. The playground has been marked for a number of games and was expanded in 1994 and 2009. We have our own field next to it, and beyond that is a wooded area. We use the local recreation area, which is located behind the school, for sports and other activities. Our fundraising for the Big Build began in 2015–2016, and because to the incredible efforts of our parents, neighbourhood council members, and the community at large, we reached our goal in September 2016. We are delighted that building works are now underway that will provide a brand new Year R classroom, new drainage, air conditioning for the Years 5 and 6 classrooms, cloakroom areas for each of the classes from Years 2-4, refurbishment of the old Year R classroom for cookery lessons and the wrap-a-round childcare provision we offer and are cautiously optimistic that our September 2017 intake will be in their new classroom. The County Council has approved the school travel plan.
