The Holy Family Primary school is one of 6 feeder school partners of St Bede’s. The OFSTED Inspector reported that St. Bede’s is 'a very special place with a committed and dedicated staff', 'a good school with several outstanding features'. In their judgements, of twenty six key aspects of the school's work, seven gained the elusive 'outstanding' with the remaining nineteen judged as 'good'.

They commented that school’s strong Catholic ethos is reflected in its ‘focus on care for each other’. The students’ spiritual, moral, social and cultural development was deemed ‘excellent’ with Mass and assemblies providing greatly valued opportunities for worship and reflection.

They also recognised the school’s business and enterprise specialist status and Saint Bede's became the only school community in the country to be involved as a finalist of the Ł1 million Big Green Challenge. The competition ran from September 2008 until October 2009 and during the year, the work of the school attracted significant local and national attention and support, receiving the personal endorsements of the Prime Minister.
