Meppershall Church of England Academy

Meppershall Church of England Academy, located in Shefford, is a mixed primary academy that serves 222 pupils, exceeding its capacity of 210. As part of the Poppy Hill Multi Academy Trust, established in 2021, the school collaborates closely with Henlow Church of England Academy to enhance the educational experience through shared expertise. The academy is committed to the holistic development of children, aligning with the educational vision of the Church of England, which focuses on spiritual, physical, intellectual, emotional, moral, and social growth.

The school follows the National Curriculum, prioritising the development of well-rounded, lifelong learners. Meppershall Academy operates on a split site, with younger children (Reception to Year 4) based in the village and older students (Years 5-6) attending Henlow Church of England Academy. This arrangement fosters a strong sense of community, as both schools maintain close ties with local churches and the surrounding area.

Parents interested in enrolling their children can attend open events scheduled for prospective Reception starters in September 2026. The school has received a 'Good' rating from Ofsted, reflecting its commitment to quality education and the well-being of its students.
