I would like to wish you a very warm welcome to our school. We are a very happy team at Aloeric, with great relationships between staff and pupils and between the school and the local community.
We believe in putting the children at the heart of what we do and want to develop all aspects of every child as they travel through the school – really giving the children a say in the development of the school and giving them opportunities to become confident and independent learners for the future.
We support an exciting curriculum, based on the needs and interests of the pupils, with many extra curricular opportunities, visits and clubs to enrich learning. The school is well-equipped, set in spacious grounds and is able to provide outside adventure play, nature areas, and a large sports field.
