Bristol Education Partnership

The Bristol Education Partnership was set up in 2019 with the aim of broadening young people’s experience of education, opening up new opportunities and overcoming disadvantage. It is a collaborative arrangement involving six state secondary schools, seven independent schools, St Brendan’s Sixth Form College, University of Bristol, University of the West of England and Bristol City Council. Working together we want to enrich education and improve outcomes for children and young people in the city.

Projects, events and activities are organised in partnership with a wide range of organisations from across Bristol, giving young people access to the best that our exciting and vibrant city has to offer. A number of teacher networks have been set up to enable collaboration across partner schools so that best practice can be shared.

The key priorities are overcoming disadvantage, raising aspirations, broadening education, inspiring staff. 

Key projects BGS are involved in this year have been the Student Leadership Programme, Climate Challenge, the Bristol Teacherfest, The Big Gig, and the Student Board.
