At Davyhulme Primary School we believe in helping every child achieve their very best in everything they do. We are committed to raising standards, which is why we have been awarded the Basic Skills Quality Mark once again in 2005.

We also truly believe that each child’s development is not just confined to the narrow curriculum of English , Maths and Science. Throughout this website there are tremendous examples of our commitment to a broad and balanced curriculum - which has been recognised by national award bearing organisations, such as Sport England , The Arts Council , Healthy Schools and Eco Schools.

Every member of staff is involved in providing an extracurricular club for our children either at lunchtime or after school . Further opportunities are provided by working in partnership with a number of other local sports and clubs from a whole variety of different backgrounds.

Children are given opportunities to develop as people by going on stage , with every year group preparing a performance on our purpose built stage. They can also contribute to the life of the school by becoming an Eco councillor or school councillor or playground leader. Life skills and personal confidence continue to grow when children attend our residential trips to Grasmere in the Lake District or Denbigh in Wales.

If your child attends our school, then you will already be aware of what a great school we have . It is our intention that this site should be a working site that helps parents, children and teachers reduce paper work but increase communication.

If you are thinking about sending your child to our school then I hope that what you have seen will have stirred enough interest for you to take the next step and arrange to see our school first hand.

In any case, I hope you enjoy your visit to our site and that you come back again soon!

Mr P McDowell
