2022 marks the 500 year anniversary of Dame Bradbury’s School in Saffron Walden, which is part of the Stephen Perse Foundation award-winning family of schools across Cambridge and Saffron Walden.

All Year 4, across the Foundation from Dame Bradbury’s and Fitzwilliam Building, were treated to a fantastic sunny trip to Colchester Zoo.

History Week was launched with an assembly led by former Head Mistress Katie Milne- she presented an enlightening history of our school and gave special house gifts to every pupil. Each year group had museum visits, speakers, competitions and quizzes to fill their week.

Parents, friends and family were treated to a wonderful performance based on Robin Hood by Year 5 on Friday 11 March.

Years 1-6 pupils at Junior School Fitzwilliam Building set up and ran a playground sale on Friday 4 March as a celebration of their integrated learning week all about History.

The Stephen Perse Foundation, a family of leading independent schools in Cambridge and Saffron Walden, announces today the appointment of James McCaughran as the next Head of Dame Bradbury’s in Saffron Walden.

The Stephen Perse Student Sustainability Committee are investigating the issue of food waste at the secondary school, having recorded a short clip to be shared with all students indicating the ‘new’ process of scraping plates, and how this will enable the sustainability committee to begin measuring the amount of food waste, feeding this information back to all students.

The Year 11 Eco-committee have been forging ahead with creating a ‘Biodiversity’ action plan for the secondary school, which forms one of the three themes required for the eco-schools award.
