Welcome to Nancealverne School

At Nancealverne school we are committed to and passionate about the learning and progress of our pupils. Staff and governors have high aspirations for our children and young people through a broad and varied curriculum; highly structured; differentiated and personalised learning programmes. We provide a specialist; high quality and relevant education for young people aged 3-19 who have moderate to complex learning difficulties. This focuses on individual, personal and academic achievement - setting high expectations for all. Our school is over three sites, with our Post-14 students at Nancealverne Upper School. We also opened Cury School, a satellite provision of Nancealverne in January 2025.
