The £10 million learning and community campus was officially opened in March 2010 and the primary school welcomed its first pupils for the start of the 2009 Autumn term.

The school, which will accommodate up to 420 children, includes a number of environmental features such as a central atrium designed in the style of a mini Eden Project, rainwater harvesting and energy conservation measures.

The campus includes:

• 26-place nursery that will be run by the school to ensure continuity
• The Bridge for Young People, a new facility that offers opportunities linked to the curriculum for 13-19 year olds in an environment that is fun, friendly, challenging and creative
• adult education facilities
• library access point with computers linked to the Kent Libraries and Archives catalogue of more than 3 million items
• community meeting room
• Kent Adult Social Services Community Resource
• Specialist Children’s Services

Facilities include a sensory room for people with disabilities, a sports hall and a sensory garden

Fastrack buses take only seven minutes to reach The Bridge from Dartford.
