IN ASSOCIATION WITH
DOVER COLLEGE
DOVER COLLEGE IS A CO-EDUCATIONAL DAY AND BOARDING SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN AGED 3-18. ITS THRIVING JUNIOR SCHOOL OFFERS ACCESS TO A CURRICULUM THAT CATERS FOR ALL AND CELEBRATES EVERY PUPIL’ S STRENGTHS AND ACHIEVEMENTS, DEVELOPING SKILLS SO THAT THE CHILDREN BECOME INDEPENDENT AND CONFIDENT RISK-TAKING LEARNERS – ENCOURAGING THEM CONSTANTLY TO THINK DIFFERENTLY.
At Dover College, the focus is not only on what to learn but how to learn, as the acquisition and development of skills are integral in all aspects of learning in a child’ s future. Dover College children learn to research and extend their knowledge, engaging in individual projects, group work and presentations. Classroom teaching – in classes of no more than 15 pupils – is supplemented by educational visits, hands-on learning sessions and visiting speakers.
At Dover College, no one child sits in class wondering,“ Why am I learning this?” or“ I won’ t need this when I’ m older!” Great importance is placed on the value of all subjects and children quickly understand that there is a practical use for everything they learn in school.
Core skills are constantly and consistently developed. The school follows the National Curriculum for English and Mathematics, so as to ensure the vital building blocks are in place for future life skills, challenges and examinations.
Languages begin in Year One with French and Spanish, and run all the way through to Year Six. Children as young as three enjoy music lessons twice weekly. In preparation for Senior School, Years Five and Six make use of the Senior School facilities and expertise in additional subjects such as: Art, Design and Technology and Science.
