Welcome to Alfred Street Junior School
We are delighted to welcome you to Alfred Street Junior School, affectionately known within the school community as 'Alfo'. Located in the heart of Rushden, housed in a distinctive Victorian building, Alfred Street can accommodate up to 30 children in each year group.
In April 2022 the School celebrated its 150th Anniversary. Please click here to view drone footage taken of our extensive school grounds during the celebrations.
We are excited to announce that in September 2023 we will be amalgamating with our Infant Feeder School, Tennyson Road Infant School, to become an all through Primary School.
At Alfred Street Junior School, we pride ourselves on providing a nurturing, welcoming and inclusive environment, where we aim to develop rounded, resilient, determined young people who can face the challenges of the modern world with confidence.
We celebrate our own special school identity through the unique experiences that our curriculum provides. Our curriculum is designed to build strong relationships and a sense of community. We aim to create rich and memorable experiences by making links to learning through a themed curricular approach and by encouraging enrichment days, trips, visits, and visitors, to enhance the learning. We inspire enthusiasm for learning, ensure high achievement for all, support pupil well-being and character development and foster all talents.
We are also a school that enjoys music, sports, and arts alongside the core subjects, and we place a balanced emphasis across the school on valuing all subjects, offering a range of clubs and opportunities for children to develop their interests and talents. Furthermore, we are proud members of our community, and we support local traditions and initiatives. Our children are well prepared to be outstanding members of the community where they can thrive, acknowledging the diversity and differences that are in their local, national, and global environment.
We warmly welcome visits to our school as our website only gives a small snapshot of our school.
Kind regards
Mrs K O’Connor.
Head Teacher
