We want them to leave us ready for the next step in their journey so they can thrive at their next destination. Teaching children to read so they can access learning in our, and future, schools is fundamental to what we do and we are ambitious for all our children to learn to love books and to read fluently. We see our young children as 16, 18 and 21 year olds who are leaving school, sixth form, college and university and we want to empower them to make positive decisions so they can take advantage of the opportunities life will present them with. Most of all we want our children to be happy and to achieve. ### About Us - [Welcome ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/welcome) - [New Parents 2027-28](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/new-parents-2027-28) - [Ofsted Report ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/ofsted-report) - [Our School Aims & Values ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/our-school-aims-values) - [A Brief History of Our School ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/a-brief-history-of-our-school) - [Safeguarding ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/safeguarding) - [Online Safety ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/online-safety) - [Who's Who ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/who-s-who) - [Governors ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/governors) - [PSA ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/psa) - [Hamwic Education Trust ](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/hamwic-education-trust) - [Staff Vacancies](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/staff-vacancies) ![Upton Infant School](https://files.schudio.com/upton-infant-school/images/logo/footer.png) ### Upton Infant School Guest Road Upton, Poole Dorset BH16 5LQ 01202 622367 ### Useful Links - [Welcome](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/welcome) - [Admissions](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/admissions) - [Policies](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/policies) - [SEND](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/send-inclusion) ### Helpful Links - [Who’s Who](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/who-s-who) - [Governors](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/governors) - [Curriculum](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/curriculum) - [Ofsted Report](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/ofsted-report) ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/uptoninfantschool/) - [X](https://twitter.com/UptonInfant) - [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/user/uptoninfantschool/videos) © Copyright 2025–2026 Upton Infant School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://uptoninf.dorset.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
