About Us

Marlow Church of England Infant School, known to its friends as SANDYGATE, is a two form entry infant school that values standards and achievement.

We are extremely proud of all that goes on here.

As our website demonstrates, the children at Sandygate are supported in their learning by dedicated staff, governors and parents.

I encourage you to browse around our website, you will find details of school events, visitors and activities that serve to enliven the curriculum, alongside information about our after school clubs and extra curricular activities that your children can participate in.

Don't forget to visit our Calendar section, for a comprehensive lisiting of all of the important forthcoming term dates - make sure you have your diaries handy. I look forward to seeing you in school!

Best Wishes

Miss Elizabeth Toohig
(Head Teacher)

The governing body has constituted a number of committees which handle such details as school monitoring and evaluation and recommended policy developments within the school. The constituted committees are currently CAP - Curriculum; admissions and promotionsand FISH - Finance, personnel, premises and Health and Safet. Copies of minutes from meetings of the governing body are always available for review by parents through the school office.
