We are a two form entry school, with a pre-school, serving almost 500 children on the south west of Sheffield. It is a privilege to be the Headteacher of our school, providing local families with an excellent education, delivered by exceptional teachers and support staff.
Our children are well rounded individuals who love taking part in outdoor learning and take advantage of the many opportunities that are on offer. The school site is a great place to learn with lots of green space and a woodland area. Please contact us if you would like to find out more.
In my role as Headteacher I will do all I can to ensure the best education for all of the children here at Dore Primary School. Neil Frankland. This website is proudly sponsored by the Dore Parent's Association Headteacher's Welcome I wish you a very warm welcome to Dore Primary School.
