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.

At the end of last term, Year 2 enjoyed learning all about the Easter story. They made spin wheels to take home as well as these chick boxes which tested their knowledge of 3D shapes. They remembered lots from their maths learning earlier in the term. Well done, children!
We are looking forward to seeing you all bright and early tomorrow morning. We can't wait to hear all about your Easter Holiday adventures!
As part of last term's study of World War II, Year 6 worked together to make Anderson Shelters. Fantastic work, Elm Class!
Miss Manewell managed to pull off a brilliant prank for April Fools Day. She told the children that Mrs Wright would be ordering brandnew classroom chairs but only if everyone measured their current chairs and themselves to make sure we got the perfect fit. The children got straight to work with rulers and tape measures... and they all fell for it! A lovely bit of laughter to start the day in Willow Class. The children were amazing and they used their fab maths skills to measure accurately.
