Welcome

The headteacher, staff, children and governors welcome you to the Coteford Infant School website.

Coteford Infant School is a mainstream school with the privilege of additional funds to support approximately 10 children with physical disabilities. We have 3 classes in each year group and 70 children in our nursery.

Our Values and Ethos

“Everyone is special, every day is important and together we can do anything”

We believe that all children can achieve well and we work closely with parents to set and achieve the high expectations for our children. There is an emphasis on active learning in the classrooms and making lessons fun. Children are encouraged to “have a go” and become independent as well as motivated learners. Individual pupil targets are regularly shared with parents and children’s progress is closely monitored. The school environment is well maintained, safe, exciting and vibrant. The playground has many exciting features including Spoon Island, Happy Hills and the Magical Theatre. Recently we have extended the school hall and installed theatre lighting to support sports, drama and special events.

We are proud of our school and our children. We hope that you find our website both informative and enjoyable, especially the many photographs of children having fun and learning with their friends.

If you would like to visit the school or ask for any other information, please call 01895 462395 and speak to Miss Harris.
