Welcome to Dorothy Stringer
Dorothy Stringer is a vibrant, stimulating and happy community – a place where everyone is encouraged to join in and play their part, both inside and outside the classroom. We aim to create a learning environment that meets the needs of every one of our students.
Today’s young people face a world that is changing at an ever-increasing pace. As a school we have a duty to prepare them for their adult lives. We firmly believe the five-year experience at Dorothy Stringer will help to unlock their full potential and instill a lifelong love of learning.
We work to ensure that all our students achieve their full academic potential. However, we believe that school is not just about academic success: we want our students to thrive and to develop holistically.
We excel at nurturing our students in a safe and happy environment and caring for their emotional wellbeing.
We are a community with clear moral values and where there is a sense of belonging and identity. We work hard to engage our community, to develop partnerships with parents and carers and to secure their interest, support and commitment.
At Dorothy Stringer our motto is ‘Education for Life’ and we have three core values; creativity, resilience, and respect. Our school values guide everything we do.
