Welcome to Dame Elizabeth Cadbury School

Mr J.Till | Headteacher

We are focussed on every individual reaching their full potential, with a no excuses culture. Accessing a course at a top university, a highly sought-after apprenticeship or entering employment with training is the norm for our pupils. 

Whilst progressive in much of what we do we are very traditional with regards to discipline, manners and respect. Our expectations are high and this will always be the case. We know from experience that setting the bar high pushes everyone in the school community to achieve great things.

We also recognise that academic success alone is not the only aim of our work. Developing qualities and values that will allow your child to succeed in future endeavours is an equally important outcome. Opportunities outside the taught curriculum are plentiful and we encourage all to fully embrace everything the school has to offer.
