ABOUT US

Dropmore Infant School is a small, friendly school in an idyllic rural setting, which has educated children in the local area for over 200 years. It is surrounded by open countryside with a large playing field and landscaped areas including an adventure playground, pond, vegetable plots, orchard and wild flower area. The school has benefited from much refurbishment and improvement over the recent years, but still retains its unique charm with the old thatched roof building.

 

We are strongly committed to developing the 'whole' child both personally and academically and are in a privileged position to offer small class sizes. We offer children an interesting, challenging and creative curriculum which caters for all abilities in a safe, happy and stimulating environment. We have high expectations for all the children that are placed in our care.  We aim to create the foundations for them to become successful, confident and independent learners.
