Colehill First School

Welcome to Colehill First School: A Happy School, Where Children Love to Learn!

At Colehill First School we believe that children's first experiences of school are really important because they lay down the foundations for everything that follows. We strive to ensure that all children at our school are excited, enthused and motivated by the learning opportunities we offer. We aspire for them to become life long learners, relishing each new challenge, enjoying every achievement, and living happy, fulfilling and productive lives.

Our aim is to provide the highest possible quality of education for all our children, enabling them to realise their individual abilities, talents, skills and personal qualities. We pride ourselves in our warm, caring ethos, within which all children can feel happy, safe, engaged and enabled to learn.

We firmly believe that the best outcomes are achieved through strong partnerships between home and school and within our local community. This is why we formed Wimborne Academy Trust in March 2015, together with other first and middle schools in our locality, to achieve the most effective provision for the young people of Wimborne and the surrounding area. In January 2023, Wimborne Academy Trust merged with The Minerva Learning Trust, and became known as the Initio Learning Trust.

Colehill is a founding member of Initio Learning Trust.
