Early Years Excellence

The Early Years at Ashbridge Nursery Schools secure excellent foundations for learning and future success.

Our dedicated baby area is designed to create a relaxed and secure environment where experienced staff nurture and care for children’s every need. From the age of three months to four years, children benefit from shared social experiences, high quality teaching and interaction with key people which supports all aspects of a young child’s development.

A wonderful outdoor environment here at our Bilsborrow Nursery School is used to the full and our extensive opening hours and flexible services meet the needs of today’s families.

"The day is planned out to be exciting and stimulating and practitioners work hard to ensure that children are motivated and their exploratory impulses are kindled."

"Practitioners have high expectations of the children in their key groups and ensure that planned activities suit their interests and accelerate their knowledge and understanding."

"Children’s behaviour is good and it is clear there is an ethos of mutual respect - children are independent, happy and constantly encouraged and praised."
