Alfred Salter

What Alfred Salter does

Alfred Salter Primary School is a state-funded primary school located on Quebec Way in Rotherhithe, Southwark, London, serving families with children aged 3–11 across Nursery, Reception, and Years 1–6. Its core offer is statutory primary education delivered under the UK National Curriculum, supplemented by a differentiated SEND and wellbeing program — including speech and language therapy via Sarah Buckley Therapies, ELSA-trained staff, LEGO Therapy, Nurture Breakfasts, a multi-sensory Calm Zone, and partnerships such as Future Men and Paper Gardens at The Printworks.

Revenue mechanics combine three streams: per-pupil government funding routed through Southwark Council, fee-based wraparound care (Breakfast Club from £4.50–£5 per child per morning; After School Care from £10.50–£11 per child per afternoon), and Nursery-specific charges (£2 per day for meals plus a £12.75 weekly top-up beyond 15 free hours). Admissions for Reception are processed centrally via Southwark's eAdmissions portal, while Nursery and in-year transfers are handled directly through the school's enquiry process and managed waiting list.

The school occupies a single campus with on-site cooked meals supplied by external caterer Accent Catering, free primary meals under Southwark policy, and a public-facing website hosted on the third-party Greenhouse School Websites platform. Ongoing compliance is anchored by Ofsted inspection cycles (most recent public report 2024), and operational governance sits within the Southwark local-authority framework. The entity has no subsidiaries, no parent company, no funding rounds, and no recorded M&A activity.
