Welcome to our wonderful Gold Rights Respecting School! I am extremely proud to be the Chief Executive Officer of Canford Heath Infant School and I am passionate about everyone doing their very best for this much-loved school which I attended myself, as a young child.
Canford Heath Infant School is a member of the TEACH Poole Trust - The Educational Alliance of Canford Heath - which oversees not only Canford Heath Infant School, but also Haymoor Junior School, Ad Astra Infant School and Canford Heath Junior School.
Through leading all four schools and ensuring we all work together, we are able to get the best from each one, to ensure your child has the very best primary school experience possible. I hope that the information Here you will find is useful to you and that you can find everything you need to know.
But please do not hesitate to contact myself or the Headteacher, Laurin Palmer, if we can help in any way. We look forward to working with your child, yourself and your family and to making your little ones school life as meaningful and exciting as possible.
