On behalf of the staff, the pupils and governing body, it is my pleasure to welcome you to Davyhulme Primary School. Ours is a vibrant school community which places children and learning at the heart. Standards of teaching and learning are excellent and the children thrive in our outstanding learning environment. Pupils consistently attain highly and make exceptional progress across all phases. As Head teacher of this wonderful school, I strive for two simple things for our pupils: Our mission statement Reaching for the Stars! is at the heart of everything that we do: we are ambitious for all of our pupils and believe that every child can succeed, no matter what their starting point, or whatever individual challenges they may face. Closely linked with this are our core values we are ambitious, we are caring, we are collaborative, we are courageous which run through all aspects of life at D.P.S. like a golden thread.
