A big warm welcome to our website
We have created a learning environment that embodies our vision and values. At the heart of everything we do is our belief that every child deserves the opportunity to dream, believe, and achieve.
What sets us apart is the strong, nurturing relationships we build with our pupils, which is grounded in empathy and understanding. The "Dovetree family" is a sentiment that is deeply ingrained in our school culture where the family-like atmosphere extends beyond the classroom, as we work closely with parents and professionals to provide a consistent, nurturing environment for all of our children and young people
Our holistic approach ensures that each pupil receives the personalised support they require to reach their full potential. We are aspirational about their success and encourage them to embrace their unique talents, push the boundaries of what is possible, and accept no limitations on their achievements.
At Dovetree, we understand that every child and young person has strengths, challenges, and learning needs, which is why we have developed a broad and flexible curriculum that allows our pupils to pursue both academic and vocational paths, enabling them to thrive.
We invite you to explore our school with your child.
