Durham School

Day & Boarding School (Age 3-18)

Founded 1414


Learning Support

Learning support is available from Early Years upwards. At the youngest ages, needs are identified and supported within the setting and by means of our generous staff to pupil ratio. Each form from Reception to Form Two has a classroom assistant who can offer in-class support to those children requiring it. This continues in the Prep School (Y3 to Y6) and is augmented by small groups of individuals being withdrawn from class for specialist help as well. The amount of help varies depending upon the degree of learning support required.

My son's trips away with the CCF have helped to teach him independence, discipline and confidence in being able to look after himself and others. The House competitions have involved my son in singing and helping out with drama productions, something he might never have done if he had not attended this school. We will all be very sad when the time comes for him to leave.
