Vision

At Dundonald Primary and Early Years Centre we want everyone to feel nurtured (Article 9), included (Article 23) and proud. Everyone has the right to achieve success (Article 29), experience positive relationships and develop self-esteem (Article 4 and 5).

We aspire to be a school of excellence that encourages all associated with it to be actively involved in the life and work of the school. All pupils are encouraged to do their best and to be positive, enthusiastic and motivated in their learning. We aim for excellence in ourselves and others.

Our aim at Dundonald is to ensure all pupils fulfil their potential as Successful Learners, Responsible Citizens, Effective Contributors and Confident Individuals through engaging fully with school life and embedding our vision and values in our practice.

 Our Curriculum Rationale 

In Session 2022-2023, we worked together with our staff, our children and families to identify:  what our unique qualities are in Dundonald PS and EYC and what is most important to us.

After consulting with everyone, we created our Curriculum Rationale.  Our Curriculum Rationale explains what we are aiming to achieve through our curriculum – our Rationale explains what we want for our children and how we will work together to achieve it.  Please click on the link below to read our Curriculum Rationale.
