Welcome to Deanwood Primary School
Welcome to Deanwood Primary School. Starting school is a most important time in your child's life and at Deanwood we aim to make it a great start. Being a smaller school helps us to create a happy, successful and safe environment in which to learn.
Happy, Successful and Safe
Deanwood is a community Primary School with a nursery provision. At present, there are 209 children on roll, organised into eight classes. A large percentage of our children join us at the age of 3 and leave at the end of Year 6. Deanwood joined the Howard Academy Trust on 1st October 2016.
Our Curriculum
We recognise that a curriculum has to be broad, balanced and offer pupils opportunities to grow as individuals as well as learners. We also intend to offer our pupils new and exciting experiences through extra-curricular activities that are designed to build resilience, confidence and self-esteem.
Ethos & Values
At Deanwood we want everybody to be “Happy, Successful and Safe”. We aim to do this by promoting the fundamental British values of democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty
& mutual respect and tolerance of those with different faiths and beliefs.

Mrs Wright is loving hearing about everyone's football presentations. Well done to Oliver in Year 2 who was proud to show her his trophy today.
Here are some pictures from last week's KS2 Choir rehearsal. We are looking forward to more singing fun this afternoon!
We've come to the last of Year 5's Victorian Day pictures. We would like to say a big "thank you" to Miss Rumjaun, Mrs Down and Mr Daniels for making it such a memorable day for the children. We would also like to thank parents and carers for their help with the Victorian Day costumes - the children looked wonderful!
OPAL - Can you help? As you can see from these pictures, our children absolutely love playing with the two big plastic tubes that someone has donated for OPAL. As we only have two, we wondered if anyone might have any contacts who could get us some more? If so, please contact Mrs Wright via the school office. Also, we are looking for tarpaulin. The children love using tarpaulin to make dens. If you have any spare tarpaulin at home, please give it to your child's class teacher at drop off / pick up time. Thank you for your help!
