It is with great pride and pleasure that I introduce you to The Avon Valley School and Performing Arts College (AVS).
Our school provides a great learning community, where students, staff and parents work collaboratively to realise every student’s potential. Individually, and collectively, we are on a mission to inspire, advance aspirations, and cultivate a school community of limitless potential.
While remote work offers clear benefits, it’s also important to connect with our team members – we organise regular virtual events, including board game breaks and skillshares, as well as in-person conferences, team meetings, and our annual company retreat.
At the heart of our school is a commitment to empowering every student with the knowledge, skills, and confidence they need to thrive.
We bring this to life through a rigorous curriculum and high-quality teaching that not only builds strong academic foundations, but also encourages deeper learning through debate, problem solving, critical thinking, and effective communication.
Alongside this, our exceptional pastoral programme supports students in developing leadership, resilience, initiative, organisation, and communication—preparing them for successful futures beyond school.
AVS has a strong track record of academic success and students are extremely well supported to progress into the next steps in their educational journey.
Life at AVS however is about much more than strong academic performance.
AVS students show real passion to go above and beyond in a wide variety of disciplines such as English, sport, drama, music, enterprise, science, technology and maths, to name but a few.
Our personalised approach and rich curricular and extracurricular offer make AVS a very special and positive place to learn. We really hope you choose to come on this journey with us, and look forward to welcoming you to AVS.
At The Avon Valley School and Performing Arts College, we aim to create an inclusive learning environment where everyone feels valued and supported.
At The Avon Valley School and Performing Arts College we are committed to safeguarding and promoting the welfare and safety of all students, and expects all staff and volunteers to share this commitment.
