On behalf of all the staff and governors I would like to welcome you to Dundale Primary School and Nursery. Choosing the right school for your child is one of the most important decisions that you will make. We are committed to giving your child the best all-round education that we can. We set high expectations in terms of behaviour and attitudes to learning and these, together with our core values, are reinforced throughout the day in every aspect of school life.
'Getting it right for every child' is important to us at Dundale and we firmly believe in creating an environment that is warm, welcoming and facilitates a sense of belonging. We are extremely lucky to have a large, well-resourced indoor and outdoor environment for children in nursery and they also are able to develop their social skills alongside children in reception. As the children are based across Early Years this allows a higher ratio of adult:child with two fully qualified teachers and support staff.
From Summer 2024 we are delighted to be able to to offer 30hrs provision in nursery.
Please enjoy reading more about our provision and what we have to offer and do not hesitate to contact us if you wish to visit or ask for any more information.
