A small village school which plays a big part in the community, is Duloe VA Church of England Junior and Infant School. It was built in the Victorian era in the 1860s, with a new extension opened by the Bishop of Truro in 1968.
Currently there are 62 pupils on roll, drawn mainly from Duloe itself and from nearby St Keyne, and at age 11 the majority transfer to Looe Community School, with some children opting for Liskeard School and Community College.
A busy and active school, the corridors are lined with colourful works of art and projects, and there is a warm, work-like hum emanating from the three classrooms. The full time class teachers are Tara King, who is presently acting head teacher, and shares her class with Anne Daniel, taking the whole of the infant stage from reception through to Year 2. Ann Carter teaches Years 3/4 and Veronica White teaches Years 5/6. There are also three supportive classroom assistants, Caroline Trubshaw, Sue Eames and Carol Foster, as well as visiting music specialist Di Hook, who takes the juniors for their music lessons and also teaches recorders. Ann Daniel is also the special needs teacher.
At the hub of every school is the reception and office, and school secretary for the last 26 years, which makes her the longest serving member of staff, is Jean Massey.
The Juniors are currently studying World War Two, and it is Jean who is setting up correspondence between the pupils and a former evacuee to the village from London, Mr Geoffrey Toogood, who attended the school from 1940.
The link is local Mr Bill Bassett who contacted Mr Toogood in Cheshire after he saw he had left a message in the church visitors' book after he had made a journey to the village reliving old memories. The
