Welcome

Welcome to Dormansland Primary School.

We hope you find this a useful site to showcase the wonderful work our pupils produce, the ethos and values we hold dear and links to other sites and resources which may be of particular interest.

Choosing the right school, for you and your child, is one of the most important decisions that you will make. Our website reflects the wide range of activities and opportunities our children engage in, and our themed curriculum allows pupils to make links and recognise that skills and knowledge learnt are transferable across many aspects of life.

We are extremely proud to be the Head Teachers of Dormansland School. The pupils who attend our school will play an important role in shaping the future of our world and we, as a school, support them in identifying these skills and valuable character traits to help them succeed now and in their future both academically and as well-rounded happy individuals.

Mr Mark Cook and Mrs Faye Davies
