Brougham Street Nursery School

What Ofsted said

From the inspection on 12 November 2024

Brougham Street Nursery School has a special place in the heart of the local community. It is a school that reaches out and wraps its arms around the families it serves. Parents and carers value the school very highly. Parents were keen to share how this exceptional nursery school goes above and beyond to support them. The school has extremely high expectations for all children and has developed an exemplary curriculum offer. Children participate confidently in carefully planned learning activities. They enjoy visits to the local woodlands to take part in nature activities and spend time exploring their local area. Their recent visit to the railway station is re-enacted in the classroom regularly. Children excitedly take turns to wear the drivers cap to drive the train or to walk along the carriages and stamp the passenger's tickets. This demonstrates how children are building long-term knowledge through these purposeful and exciting experiences. The school operates a robust culture of safeguarding. Children feel safe in school. They have strong relationships with their key person and staff in the setting. Consistent adult modelling helps children to understand their own feelings and follow the school's behaviour approach. Children learn the importance of being kind and caring towards others.
