Teachers

“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge”

Albert Einstein

At Dulwich Village C of E Infants’ School we work as a team. The school runs well because of the many people working, supporting and challenging us.

From Governors to PTFA members, from Safety Crossing Patrol Officers (Lollipop people!) to First Aiders, Teachers, Teaching Assistants, Administration staff, Volunteers, Student Teachers, Cooks and Visitors to school….all form the network that provides the school with the solid base for great teaching and learning.

Each class at Dulwich Village C of E Infants’ School is led by a fully qualified teacher and teaching assistant.

On Occasion an extra member of staff may be allocated to a class due to specific needs within that class.

The Headteacher, Mrs Helen Poyton is in school Monday-Friday, the Deputy Headteacher, Mrs Susan James is in school Monday, Wednesday and Friday. SENDCO Dr Laura O'Brien is in school Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday.
