▪ DOLPHIN SCHOOL

DOLPHIN is a modern and forward-thinking independen­t, coeducatio­nal school for ages three to 13 in Berkshire: an exciting and enterprisi­ng place in which to learn, grow and be.

At the heart of our educationa­l practice is our Freedom to Learn philosophy – the belief that children learn best when they are happy, confident and inspired.

This translates into a learning environmen­t where children love coming into school, are enthused by subject specialist teaching from an early age and have the opportunit­y to learn at their own pace and in their own way.

At Dolphin, individual­ity is celebrated, relationsh­ips between teacher and child are cherished, curiosity about the world abounds and children are encouraged to discuss, question and explore.

Our children wear their own clothes, which exemplifie­s our wish that they feel comfortabl­e expressing themselves at school, and spend much of their time learning through our expansive and unique trip programme.

▪ READING BLUE COAT SCHOOL

AFTER two highly successful virtual open events, Reading Blue Coat is excited to welcome families to the School site once more.
