OUR CHAIRMAN

Welcome to the Doveton group of schools, a unique group of comprehensive schools, serving a truly multi-cultural community, where every student is valued and treated as an individual.

At the Doveton group of schools young people’s talents and abilities are nurtured to develop and achieve ambitions. Our aim is that all students should leave the school as highly qualified, confident and articulate young adults.

Through planned activities the Doveton group supports children with an aim to develop a healthy behaviour, help to raise student achievement, help reduce health inequalities and promote social inclusion

The Doveton group takes great pride in the diversity of our student community. We believe that, irrespective of the background, there are many ways to be successful at our schools: we simply strive towards excellence.

Our schools are built on P.R.I.D.E.

Personal excellence
Respect and friendship
Inspiration
Decency, decorum and discipline.
Equality

These foundations are our verdict of legacy from inception. We aim to surround and strengthen these with an ethos of caring, humanity and belonging. We have a firm belief that the more we stand together, the more long-lasting will be our achievements. It is a verdict we are very proud of but more important is the spirit of the Anglo Indian community which is the hallmark of our group.
