Prospectus information

Dormers Wells Infant School celebrated its 50th year in 2004, and continues to welcome families from around the world. We celebrate our multicultural ethos. We have experienced staff and are a successful school set in a lovely environment. Each class is equipped with computers and interactive whiteboards, and we have a pupil computer suite where children concentrate on additional English and maths. Parents are also able to access learning on our site.

Ethos and values
We believe education is a life-long process and we aim to help all children achieve their full potential in a happy and caring environment where each individual is valued and respected. We strive to maintain a balance between formal education and a wider curriculum and place emphasis on good behaviour and respect for all members of the school community. Parents are encouraged to participate in the life of the school.

Summary of special educational needs policy
The school’s policy for special educational needs fully embraces the principles of the new code of practice. We have a very experienced special needs co-ordinator and all staff help support children with special needs. We also work in partnership with the school educational psychologist who helps assess individual pupils where necessary.
