Danegrove Primary School

[EduCativ]

Danegrove is a mainstream Primary School that is committed to inclusive education and meeting the needs of all the children in its care. We aim to provide a lively, creative curriculum to challenge and motivate our pupils and enable them to participate in a range of high-quality learning opportunities. The school's excellent facilities enable an excellent standard of education. We had a new year 2 unit built-in 2013, and this has enhanced the opportunities that we can provide our children (although we are always seeking to make them even better). However, our greatest resource is our skilled and dedicated staff who work tirelessly to provide the best teaching and learning experience for each child.
At Danegrove School great emphasis is placed on developing a growing sense of self-esteem and respect for others. Everyone at Danegrove is encouraged to develop collective respect for his or her school. We aim to give equal opportunity to all, regardless of gender, race, or religion. Our policy is to prepare pupils to live and work harmoniously together.
Danegrove is a three-form entry County Primary School. It is set in a very attractive environment on the margin of London‟s Green Belt. The school has two sites children enter school in the Foundation Stage on the Ridgeway Avenue site. They stay on that site for two years, moving on to the Windsor Drive site for years 2-6. Each year has three classes, except for year 5, they have 4.The school can offer outstanding facilities for its pupils on both sites, including well-equipped, spacious classrooms and libraries. There are a Music Room, a Special Needs Resource Unit, and group teaching rooms. Each class has its computer system and has access to the Computer Network Room, Ipads enhancing research skills.
We want our pupils to enjoy coming to school and to be enthusiastic about learning. We will nurture and encourage pupils and hopefully, inspire them to be active participants in their development and education.
We encourage our pupils to be responsible and thoughtful and play an active part in all aspects of school life. Our School Council gives the children a voice where their thoughts and ideas can be expressed and put into practice. We want our children to feel safe and secure and have the confidence to achieve their full potential both academically and personally.
Our ethos is built on mutual respect for others, their values, and belief. We hope to develop positive, active learners who are prepared for their role in a rich and diverse society. At Danegrove we pride ourselves in our strong home/school relationships. We encourage an open-door policy, allowing parents and staff to meet whenever a need arises. We hold a weekly Parents' surgery where parents and carers can meet a school leader to discuss any worries, concerns, or queries. We place a high value on establishing close links between home and the school so that we can effectively work together to achieve the best for your child.
We expect high standards of behavior from all of our pupils and ask parents to enter into a Home-School Agreement with us, which sets out how the school and parents can work together. We are passionately committed to individual achievement, personal growth, and the pursuit of excellence for every child. We hope Danegrove Primary School enjoys a long and successful working relationship with you and your child.
