Today we celebrated our legendary site agent- Graham Jakes. He has worked at the school for 30 years, providing unwavering support for every member of staff, student and parent- whatever is needed. A parent gave us this message which we feel sums up the impact Graham has: “We just wanted to share a few words to celebrate Mr Jakes and to thank him for all his hard work over the years. He always has a smile on his face and is so cheerful with the children at the end of the school day.
He’s always happy to stop for a chat, and over the past few years, he’s built a really lovely relationship with my little girl. She looks forward to their conversations and always comes away smiling.
Nothing is ever too much trouble for Mr Jakes – he goes above and beyond for everyone, and the school is very lucky to have him.” Congratulations Mr Jakes on 30 years of working at Edward Peake. ... See MoreSee Less

It is with deep sadness that we learnt about the passing of Edward Peake's first headteacher, Mr Phillip Haines on 5 December.
He loved the school and the Biggleswade community. When the school was first opened he commented, "Education is sharing. Relationships are the staff's first priority." An ethos our school still continues.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Mr Haines' family and friends. ... See MoreSee Less
