Welcome to The Drive Community Primary School

school

Whether you are a parent of a child or children already at our school, or are considering sending your child to us, we hope that you find our school website useful and informative.

At our school our most important and fundamental aim is to ensure that every child regardless of their ability, race or sex, is able through our care, to reach their absolute full potential. We endeavour to ensure that each child is encouraged to become a happy learner, confident and self disciplined in all they do.

Our daily practice is committed to providing high quality learning opportunities in an environment that is both stimulating, yet calm and ordered. We share with the children what is expected of them and work with them to ensure that targets are met and often exceeded.

school We believe we are striving continually to provide `the best'. In return we expect high standards from the children academically, behaviourally and in the development of community spirited attitudes.

The website explains more about how we work. If you wish to discuss any matters arising from your reading or have any other concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch.

Finally, we would like you to know that we believe that a child's initial years in school are the most important. They lay the foundations to equip our children for an ever changing and more demanding world. We welcome and commit ourselves to the challenge.

Heather Gofton Head Teacher
