The nursery aims to provide a fair and compliant approach to childcare fees and funded arrangements, encouraging parents to contact the Nursery Manager for any necessary clarifications.

They provide various session times, including full day, morning, and afternoon options, running from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm.

Inclusion & environment

How they support every child

SEND provision

Children, including those with special educational needs and/or disabilities (SEND), make strong and sustained progress in all aspects of their learning. Staff provide highly effective support to children with SEND. They identify possible gaps in development at an early stage and act promptly to address them, working closely with other professionals and making good use of additional funding.

Outdoor space

Children learn to recognise and manage the risks in their play. For instance, they negotiate, with considerable skill, manoeuvring a wide range of pedalled and balanced vehicles around their obstacle course in the well-resourced grounds.

Really dropped standards since it was taken over by new owner. All about cost cutting and owner who is rude, arrogant and deluded
