Our School Vision

At de Vere school, we aim to encourage a lifelong love of learning by providing a caring environment where children feel safe and secure.  All the children are known as individuals, and their talents and strengths recognised.  We have high expectations for the children to become independent in their thinking and actions.

We provide a rich and varied curriculum which challenges and inspires all children. We carefully consider pupils' varied life experiences and needs, providing equal opportunities for all pupils, whatever their age, disability, race, religion or belief, gender/gender identity or socio-economic background, to ensure that every child really does matter.

Supporting children to be global citizens who are aware and knowledgeable about the world, we aim for children to leave de Vere with a broad knowledge base from which they can continue their education, and which underpins their future successes. In short, we aim to ‘Launch Lifelong Learners’ by creating skilled communicators, creative and active thinkers, who know more and remember more. 

Our highly skilled and dedicated staff team ensure this school is a fun place to learn. Our website is a good place to start to find out about our school, but nothing can beat seeing it in action. You are warmly welcomed to visit as we relish showing off our calm, friendly atmosphere and fantastic standard of work.  Please call or email the office to book an appointment.
