From the Headmaster

Our principal aim at Davenies is to encourage the pursuit of excellence and the development of the whole person in a caring, supportive environment.

We do this by adopting a thorough, expansive and imaginative approach to all aspects of school life. We seek to instil in the boys a sense of curiosity and confidence so that they can drive their own learning and make the most of their ability, wherever it lies.

At Davenies we place particular emphasis on developing caring children who do not merely put themselves first, but who know how to behave appropriately and considerately. Ultimately, we recognise that we are not only preparing the boys for successful entry to senior schools, but also for life outside and beyond school.

Education should be exciting and Davenies is an exciting school. The boys find success in many areas, both on the sports field and within the classroom. The facilities are excellent, the class sizes small and the site attractive. However, just as we endeavour to help each boy progress and to make the most of the opportunities available, as a school we are constantly looking for areas where we can continue to build upon the excellent education we offer.
