Come and see for yourself what a happy, caring school this is, we would love to show you. Please email office@drydrayton.cambs.sch.uk or call 01954 780618 to book an appointment. 

If you would like your child to attend our school, please see full details of our admission arrangements below. 

There will always be a warm welcome for all visitors to our school.  Parking within the school grounds is limited to staff only at the beginning and end of the school day, but if you visit outside of these hours and can find a space, please use it! If you travel to the school by car, please try to park considerately on the road outside or preferably elsewhere in the village, as Park Street can get very congested.   All visitors must report to the school office via the main entrance, where you will be signed in and given an identity badge which must be worn at all times whilst on the school premises.

Reception, Year 1 and Year 2

Year 3 and Year 4

Year 5 and Year 6
