Welcome to the website of Dinton CE VC Primary School. The school serves the community of Dinton and surrounding villages. It is a great privilege to undertake the role of Headteacher here. The grounds are extensive with play apparatus, nature area, field and running track.
Children also have plenty of space to learn indoors with large classrooms and break out spaces to work in small groups. The school is also perfectly situated opposite the wide open space of the recreation ground and adjacent to the open space of Dinton Park.
The school looks to build children up to succeed by giving them opportunities to develop responsibility, show respect for others and be truthful individuals.
