Situated in the picturesque village of Diseworth, very close to East Midlands Airport in north west Leicestershire, the school takes children from age 4 to 10. At present we have two classes, with relatively small numbers of children in each class. We are a Voluntary Controlled Church of England school with close links to the church and village community.
The grounds of the school are extensive, including a large playing field and nature area. The building itself was constructed in 1973, replacing a Victorian one on the same site.
Inside the school are three classrooms, a hall, library, art area and kitchen. All of our classrooms provide a bright and inspiring environment for our children. The children have access to computers and netbooks in each classroom and are taught daily via interactive whiteboards.
Class Arrangements
Class 1 currently takes children in reception and years 1 & 2. Class 2 takes children in years 3, 4 & 5. Class 3 is currently used for children working in small target groups. Both classes benefit from a number of part time classroom assistants.
With approximately 40 children in the school, we are able to provide small classes with all the benefits which this gives the children. We have a good knowledge of individual children's needs and learning styles which has a positive input on the progress and attainment the children make over the years.
