Dove Bank Primary School is a small rural community school for pupils aged four to eleven years old.
Situated in the picturesque village of Nailstone, the school also serves the nearby catchment areas of Bagworth and Battram.
The school is a well-maintained, modern building built in 1982 and extended further in 2004.
Dove Bank was extended again in 2019 to cater for increased housing being built in the local area.

We’re so excited to finally share our new ideas for the playground and field! 🌿✨
After months of planning and welcoming designers in, our vision is coming to life – and it’s BIG. We want to create a vibrant outdoor space where our children can explore, play and thrive.
🚀 We’re launching our crowdfunding page NOW – link in the post!
We really need everyone to rally around us 💛 Please donate if you can, share far and wide, and tag any local businesses who might like to sponsor part of our project.
A big thank you to our PTA group and parents who have helped kickstart the fundraising in school!
Together, we can make this happen for our children! 🙌

We love welcoming Incy Wincys Preschool to Dove Bank every week! 🌼
Last week, we went on a dandelion hunt and created these wonderful dande-lion faces! The flowers definitely didn’t go to waste as we used them to make beautiful nature art before our school guinea pigs happily munched away on the leftovers 🐹💛

To our amazing Year 6s 🌟
Today marked the first day of SATs, and we couldn’t be prouder of every single one of you. The determination, resilience and positive attitude you showed today was incredible to see.
SATs are just one small moment in your journey, and while we know you will all do your very best, it’s important to remember that these tests do not define who you are.
You are artists, athletes, performers, mathematicians, writers, scientists, comedians, problem-solvers, kind friends and inspiring young people. Your talents, personalities and achievements reach far beyond any test paper.
So tonight, take a moment to feel proud of yourselves. You’ve worked hard, shown courage and supported one another brilliantly.
Good luck for the rest of the week, Year 6, we are all cheering you on every step of the way! 💙✨

Everybody at Dove Bank Primary School hopes Sir David Attenborough had the most wonderful 100th birthday! 🌍💚
We celebrated the incredible difference he has made to our planet, raised awareness about protecting our environment, and shared our own ideas for creating positive change for the future.
