At Dulverton, we offer a richness of curricular activities and aim to produce well-rounded young people with high academic standards.

We have very high expectations for learning and behaviour. Our most recent Ofsted report (5th March, 2013) stated: ‘Pupils are highly motivated and their attitudes towards learning are often exemplary’ and ‘teachers have high expectations and aim to bring out the best in pupils’.

The school is committed to Safeguarding/Child Protection and promoting the welfare of children; we expect all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
