Opened in 1974 Danbury Park School is set in an enviable position on the edge of the 80 acre Danbury Country Park, providing it with a wonderful backdrop of rolling parkland and much interesting flora and fauna. Our pupils are well-motivated, very well behaved and talented children from very supportive homes. There is a real sense of school and home working together, which is picked up very clearly by the children.

The school has gained a fine reputation in the past years for academic, sporting and musical excellence. It enters many competitions and festivals which add much to school life.

Currently the school is over-subscribed. There are 259 children on roll organised in nine classes; some single aged; some mixed aged. As well as the nine class teachers we have a SEND leader and Pastoral Manager and dedicated PPA teachers specialising in Music, French and PE. Each class has a Learning Support Assistant five mornings per week with the two youngest classes having full-time LSA support.
