PRICE INCREASE FOR SCHOOL MEALS

From Easter 2023, the cost of school meals is increasing to £2.60 per day (an increase of 5p per day), making a weekly cost of £13.00.  This is due to rising costs of food, fuel etc. 

If you think you may be entitled to Free School Meals, please follow the link to DMBC website and apply - you will get an immediate response.  Entitlement to free school meals also gives you entitlement to free milk, help towards the cost of residential trips and additional funding for school.

Reading scheme used in school

The reading scheme we use in school is called Read Write Inc. 

This literacy programme was developed by Ruth Miskin, published by Oxford University Press and is taught in over 5000 schools throughout the United Kingdom.

Our pupils will focus on learning sounds and the letters that represent them, along with learning how to form the letters. The books that are then read are written using only the letters the pupils have learnt (along with a few separately taught ‘tricky words’) which will help when building up confidence in reading.
