Welcome to Alvaston Infant and Nursery School, a place where diversity is celebrated and everyone is included.

We are dedicated to providing a fantastic provision for all students. All pupils learn at different rates and in different ways. All our classes are of mixed ability, and teachers provide work that is suitably differentiated to match the ability of each child.  This is achieved though the effective deployment of a wide range of staff, resources and materials. We strive to ensure all our children are happy, safe and secure, so that they are given the greatest opportunity to achieve their potential and become ‘the best they can be’. I look forward to working with you to support your family and ensure your child has a wonderful time at Alvaston Infant and Nursery School.
