Danehill is a small, friendly Church of England village school in the Ashdown Forest. We have a clear vision for our school – to nurture, engage and inspire our community through our innovative, enlivened curriculum. Our Christian values enable all to flourish. We are all learning together, learning for life in all its fullness.

  • Be resilient and able to work independently, flexibly and use their own initiative to respond to the children’s needs.
  • Be committed to working with a team where learning opportunities are co-created through the collective imagination and curiosity of the group.

Danehill Cof E Primary School offers:
