Home » Our School » Vision and Values
At Talavera Infant School we want the best for every child. We believe that however long a child is with us, if it is one term or three years it is important that they make good progress and are equipped for the next part of their education. The staff work hard to make sure children feel that they belong and are part of a caring community. We have high expectations for our children and believe that every child can be successful. Our curriculum is based around topics which we hope excite and motivate the children to learn and encourage parents to participate in their child’s learning.

We are very proud of our school and work hard to foster confidence and a love of learning in all our children. We believe that high quality learning is achieved by providing first hand experiences and opportunities to explore and solve problems through a rich, engaging curriculum.
Aldershot is a garrison town and many of our children come from service families; bringing a rich diversity to our school that we welcome and value. We understand and embrace the challenge of change and have established a culture that welcomes new children and supports their integration quickly and successfully.
Our school values are central to the spirit, ethos and culture of Talavera Infant School and help us to ensure that we achieve our vision statement for each individual child.
Every moment matters, because every child matters.
At Talavera Infant School, we are a learning community where every child, every family and every member of staff feels they belong, are valued and are inspired to flourish.
We are relentless in our pursuit of excellence, providing high-quality teaching, meaningful experiences and an ambitious curriculum that enables every child to develop the knowledge, skills and confidence they need to succeed.
Inclusion is at the heart of everything we do. We work together to remove barriers, celebrate diversity, support families and ensure that every child is known, understood and able to thrive.
Guided by our values of Ambition, Pride, Kindness and Honesty, we nurture resilient, independent learners who leave Talavera well prepared for the next stage of their education and for life beyond school.
When children belong, they thrive. When they thrive, they achieve.
