We are keen to ensure that the pupil's voice in all aspects of school life is high.  We have various groups that run on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to ensure that school life and improvement are based on shared visions. Read our School Charter below to get a feel for our school.

You are entering a magical school, one that will give you goosebumps as you experience it.

We believe that you can fulfil your dreams and destinies if you put your mind to it - you can achieve greatness.

Leave all your worries behind you and remember that we learn from our mistakes.

Our school council helps our school out and listens to our thoughts and ideas.

We want you to taste the amazing food from on-site kitchen; it will give you a healthy heart.

Join us for a morning ‘run a mile’ or a skip2Bfit session at 8.30am to get your body and mind ready for the day ahead and boost your physical fitness.

Our uniform also makes us feel special – red for a caring heart.

We skip around forest school making memories, have lots of extra clubs to choose from and sing with pride and gusto - it will give you the shivers.

Our BNTO (Be Nice to Others) commitment means that you will see kindness, caring and happy students (and staff). This is in the classroom and at break times.

Our Eco team make sure our school is leading the way in terms of being eco-friendly so save the turtles! J

Our library is inspiring and stockpiled with books for all ages and interests. Accelerated Reading will motivate you to read more and to try new types of books.

We, at DPS, believe that a smile is contagious, so leave any frowns at the door and be ready to turn them upside down, as we have six and a half hours of joy! Is it magical as we said? YES IT IS!

 

School Council

Each class elects one pupil to join the school council. Their lunchtime meetings cover a diverse range of topics - all proposed by the children. School Council members report back to their classes about the information discussed and gauge opinions on new plans. They support various aspects of school life including being role models in assembly.  School council meetings are openly shared on the noticeboard by the library.
