Welcome to Dove CE Academy – a church of England school in the heart of our community and part of Staffordshire University Academies Trust.

It is an honour and a privilege to lead such a happy, nurturing and inclusive school where every child matters.

We pride ourselves on loving and supporting our entire community and work closely with St Michael’s Church which is a short walk away. At Dove CE Academy, we offer a broad and balanced curriculum that develops the whole child and challenges them in order to achieve their full potential. We have a dedicated team of professionals committed to providing high quality education to ensure that all children grow and flourish.

Our school moto “Roots to Grow and Wings to Fly” emphasises our focus to ensuring all children succeed in their academic, personal and social development through their journey at Dove CE Academy. We aim to make learning irresistible, allowing every child to achieve their best and to nurture their talents, as well as giving them safety, security and the skills they will need to be ready for future life. I believe that all of our children have the potential to succeed and provide a warm, rich environment in which to do so.

Personal development, mental health and wellbeing is a high priority in school. The teachers and support staff work in partnership with parents to ensure that all children feel safe, secure and are cared for. Our parents are encouraged to be actively involved in school life, through Celebration Assemblies, performances, sports events and our parent association: FOD – Friends of Dove.

We hope this website has given you an insight to our school and what we offer. However, the best way to find out more is to come and visit. Please do not hesitate to make an appointment to come and see our school in action.

Headteacher
