Quaggy Nursery, offers 46 places to children aged 3 months to 4 years old, open Monday to Friday, 8am-6pm, 5 days a week, 48.4 weeks of the year. Our aim is to support children’s well-being and learning throughout their formative years and we do this in variety of ways.

We have a highly trained staff team who plan daily for all children’s learning and development. We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) which sets standards for the learning, development and care of children from birth to 5 years old. This framework supports an integrated approach to early learning and care. It gives all professionals a set of common principles and commitments to deliver quality early education and childcare experiences to all children. Children’s progress is monitored carefully at Quaggy and all identified needs planned for. Watch our video for a more detailed description of the EYFS. 

Ofsted said at our last inspection in 2021 where we obtained ‘Good’:
