At Beech House, Bolton School's Infant School for 3-7 year olds, we aim to give all our pupils a confident, happy start to school life. We offer bright children the opportunity to develop their individual talents in a secure, caring environment where they enjoy the very latest facilities and technology whilst benefiting from our best traditions of high standards of care and achievement.

We value the different experiences and personalities of our children and enjoy watching them grow and progress through Bolton School. Our latest inspection report in 2019 assessed our EYFS teaching as being “outstanding”.

We firmly believe that every child has talents and we try to provide as wide a variety of activities as possible so that every child can experience success. Our curriculum is carefully planned to give our children the skills and knowledge they need to become responsible, thoughtful young people.

Beech House children move, at the age of seven, to Hesketh House, our Girls' Junior School or to Park Road, our Boys' Junior School. Links between the departments are strong.

Parents with younger children are now preparing their child for Beech House Reception Class by enrolling them in our Pre-School Class for 3 and 4 year olds or our Nursery.

Please come and visit us to see for yourself our very special school.
