Education
Bishops Cleeve has two primary schools; Grangefield is the relatively newest primary school built after the Western extension of Bishops Cleeve, built on land owned by the Zurich and Capita who are situated in the tallest and biggest commercial building in Bishops Cleeve behind the school.
The other primary school (Bishops Cleeve Primary Academy School) is at the heart of Bishops Cleeve situated near town/village centre. It is the oldest and biggest primary school and well known for performing considerably well. The school recently became an academy school and hosts main events during the school year.
Cleeve secondary school has recently been developing dramatically after millions of pounds of school funding. With the money they modernized old parts of the school with brand new Science, IT, Modern Languages and Learning skills departments. The school has recently been facing criticism after deciding to change the school logo. The original logo was a Bishops hat which is the logo for the football team, primary school, many shops and even the logo of Bishops Cleeve itself.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Bigotry is the disease of ignorance, of morbid minds; enthusiasm of the free and buoyant. Education and free discussion are the antidotes of both.”
—Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
“Casting an eye on the education of children, from whence I can make a judgment of my own, I observe they are instructed in religious matters before they can reason about them, and consequently that all such instruction is nothing else but filling the tender mind of a child with prejudices.”
—George Berkeley (1685–1753)
“Until we devise means of discovering workers who are temperamentally irked by monotony it will be well to take for granted that the majority of human beings cannot safely be regimented at work without relief in the form of education and recreation and pleasant surroundings.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
