At Downlands Community School, our vision is for all members of our unique community to feel a strong sense of belonging, demonstrating our values and knowing that they are valued by the school. Our values of ‘We care. We share. We believe. We achieve.’ underpin the relationships we seek to nurture between all members of our school community. We are also proud of our unique setting, which is ‘behind the wire’ of Blandford Camp, and the ‘Downlands Way’ is very much to apply a thoughtful and compassionate approach to our Services Families. We want an authentic partnership between home and school for every child who comes to the school so we can achieve the best outcomes for our community. Therefore, please read this agreement with your child before it is signed and returned to the school office.
