About this day nursery

Ecole du Parc operates two bilingual nursery schools in Clapham, South London, offering both English and French immersion for children aged 2 to 5. The nursery is committed to combining the best aspects of both the English and French education systems, fostering a love of learning and promoting a positive self-image in a caring and nurturing environment.

The "One Person One Language" approach ensures a truly bilingual experience, with each staff member engaging with children in their native tongue. Beyond language development, the curriculum focuses on preparing children for Reception, with activities designed to encourage independence, creativity, and overall development.

The nursery also provides wraparound care from early morning to late afternoon and offers a variety of extra-curricular activities.

What it's like

Children develop strong relationships with staff and are very well settled. Staff use both English and French to chat to children, which helps children express themselves and share their ideas. Children are extremely enthusiastic to join in with activities that interest them, and they are extremely well behaved, polite, and kind to each other.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children with special educational needs and/or disabilities are very well supported. Leaders and managers liaise with other professionals to implement care plans for children and work closely with parents to understand children's needs. This means children make good progress.

Outdoor space

Younger children are curious to explore everyday objects in the mud kitchen outdoors, which helps them develop confidence in their abilities. The inspector observed the quality of education being provided, indoors and outdoors, and assessed the impact that this was having on children's learning.

We are not French family but decided to send my daughter here as we heard good words about it. It is a very warm school, the staff are wonderful, my daughter loves every teacher she had interaction with, to the extent she wants to invite them for play dates and birthday party. The food menu is healthy, activities are varied and you get to know a diverse group of parents. The school offers clubs for busy working parents too.

All our kids have been at EdP, and I honestly couldn't have wished for a more lovely, nurturing learning environment for them. The staff are all wonderful, without exception, the kids have fun, but are gently challenged, couldn't recommend it more highly.
