Our school is a well-established Catholic Primary school that has welcomed families from East Dulwich and surrounding parishes since it was originally founded in 1883. We are a happy and successful school that strives for excellence; ensuring that each child grows socially, academically and spiritually - so that they leave us fully equipped for the next stage of their life journey.
Our children tell us that they love to be here and we are very proud of them and their achievements. As a Catholic school, we embrace the teachings of the Catholic Church and work closely with the local Catholic community. In partnership with families and parishes, we support the children's faith journeys and we ensure the Gospel values are central to our daily interactions as well as being the foundation of all our policies.

History
Report
In 1879 Franciscan monks started a monastery in Dulwich (where Dulwich Picture House has now been built). There was no school in the area, so the friars decided to open a school above the church. They had 48 pupils. There is no record of how our school received its name; the Franciscans were specially attached to St Anthony of Padua, and this may be why the school is named after him.
Mission Statement
Report
St. Anthony's School is based on a Catholic foundation. This is shown in the way we offer all pupils, staff, parents, visitors and friends the experience of a loving, caring, learning, playful and worshipping community. We see Christ in everyone. Each child will be helped to achieve their social, academic and spiritual potential.
Governors
Report
As governors of a faith school we hold an important public office. It is a responsibility that we take very seriously. Accordingly, we have adopted the Code of Conduct for School Governing Boards, 2015 version, to ensure to we are at all times acting in accordance with "best practice". We have four Associate Governors, who have specialist expertise, thus their appointment.
