Our Nursery is an integral part of our school. The purpose built Early Years classrooms are light and bright, with plenty of activities always available for the children to explore both inside and outside. Nursery and Reception classes share access to our superb Early Years outdoor area which they access throughout the day.

We provide an individual learning programme that offers a positive, stimulating curriculum through which all our children will develop academically, socially, physically and emotionally.

The Nursery and Reception Class teachers work closely together, to ensure that all of our Early Years children receive the support they need, and progress well.

We can offer you an experienced and supportive Leadership team; a superb teaching environment; and the opportunity to apply your exciting ideas and enthusiasm. There are excellent opportunities for career progression for the right candidate, and we are committed to the ongoing professional development of our team.
