Great news all round!

Ofsted Inspection 2025

We were visited by Ofsted before Christmas and we are delighted to finally be able to share their report with you all! We were inspected under the new Ofsted framework which introduces a five-point grading system, multiple evaluation areas, and detailed report cards, replacing the old single-word overall judgements to provide a more thorough, evidence-led inspection approach.

We are thrilled with the feedback we received! The staff have been recognised for their hardwork and expertise in providing high quality in all areas of Early Years education. A few highlights…

“The curriculum is well sequenced, helping children develop the knowledge and skills they need to thrive.”

“Babies and children enjoy extremely secure attachments, which mean they settle very quickly in readiness for learning.”

“Relationships are supportive and sensitive between staff and children.”

Printed copies of the report are available at nursery or you can read the full report here: Ashleigh Nursery School - Ofsted Inspection Report 10/12/2025

Food Hygiene Rating 2026

Environmental Health came to see us in January and once again, we are very pleased to share that we achieved the highest rating of a level 5. We are very proud of our team in the kitchen for their commitment to our nourishing lunch menu and a sparkling, clean space to prepare it in! Well done Salma, June & Cathy!
