"Best School Ever!"

We've been at Alver Valley Junior School for 3 years now and I couldn't be happier with the care and education my children have received. The forest school is amazing and our kids love going on the adventure days. The staff are so supportive and enthusiastic, it's infectious!

"Mixed feelings"

We're happy with the school overall, but there have been a few issues with communication from the teacher. The school's commitment to inclusivity and diversity is great to see though, and our child loves the Thrive Approach. The uniform is a bit pricey, but it's a small price to pay for the quality of education.

"Great for our child!"

Our son attended Alver Valley Infant School before moving up to the junior school and had a fantastic time. The teachers were always approachable and the facilities were excellent, especially the playground. We were really impressed with the school's values and ethos.
