Diptford C of E Primary is a thriving, small C of E school which encompasses Little Dippers, our Nursery and an integral part of our school. It was originally built in 1865 and we are now part of the Totnes Hub of Village Schools, within the Link Academy Trust. We are situated just outside the town of Totnes in the wonderful South Hams - an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Just a short drive from the A38 and being able to offer a range of before/after-school clubs and wrap around care from Nursery to Year 6, we are a great choice for your child even if you live outside of the village.
Our school has an excellent reputation and achieves high academic standards through the provision of a rich and exciting curriculum that makes the most of our beautiful surroundings. Our curriculum is broad, varied and includes fantastic opportunities, such as forest school and outdoor learning, surfing, archery, eco-projects, gardening, baking and so much more!
With links to our partner schools within the Trust (Bearnes, Broadhempston, Cheriton Bishop, Drake's Harbertonford, Hennock, Ilsington, Moretonhampstead, Otterton, Landscove, Stoke Gabriel, Tedburn St Mary, Widecombe in the Moor and Yeoford), the church and the local community, our children are given lots of learning opportunities outside the classroom and exciting experiences in all areas of the curriculum. 'Small school, big opportunities' is what we are all about!
