Downshire Primary is a place where children are encouraged to be curious, confident, and kind. As Principal, and as someone who has been part of this school community for many years, I am deeply proud of the caring and supportive atmosphere we provide, and of the strong sense of belonging felt by our pupils and families. Within its Christian ethos, Downshire Primary School warmly welcomes children of all faiths and none. We are proud of our robust pastoral provision and of the way it promotes care, inclusion, and respect for all.

Our dedicated staff work to provide high‑quality learning experiences within a safe, nurturing environment. We aim to help every child develop not only strong academic skills, but also resilience, independence, and a lifelong love of learning that will serve them well beyond their years at primary school.

We value the close partnership we share with parents and carers and believe that working together is key to supporting children’s success. By fostering positive relationships and maintaining clear communication, we ensure that every child feels supported both at school and at home.

I hope our website gives you a sense of what makes Downshire Primary School such a special place. We are very proud of our school and warmly invite you to become part of our community. Should you require any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact the school.

Principal
