A very warm welcome to our website. We hope you enjoy exploring it and that it gives you a glimpse into the wonderful experiences, learning and magical moments that children enjoy every day at Abercromby Nursery School. Be sure to take a look at our photos and videos – they capture the joy, curiosity and creativity that make our Nursery so special.

We are a Maintained Nursery School for children aged 2–5 years, with a dedicated, experienced and passionate team of staff. At the heart of everything we do is a commitment to putting children first. We provide a nurturing, inclusive and child-centred education that supports every child to thrive, grow and achieve their very best.

As a proud School of Sanctuary, we are recognised for the warm welcome and strong partnerships we build with all our families. We are also proud holders of the Inclusion Quality Mark and the Attachment and Trauma Sensitive Schools Award, recognising our commitment to creating an inclusive, nurturing and emotionally safe environment where every child feels valued, understood and supported. We believe that when children feel secure, respected and connected, they develop the confidence and skills they need to flourish.

In March 2023, Ofsted judged us to be Outstanding in all areas, describing Abercromby Nursery School as:

“A wonderfully magical place to be”

and stating that:

“Whatever their starting points, children are exceptionally well supported in their learning and play by staff who are experts in understanding the needs of young children.”

We are incredibly proud of the education and care we provide and believe it offers children the very best start in life. Through our nurturing environment, inclusive practice, strong family partnerships and trauma-informed approach, we ensure that every child feels safe, valued and inspired to learn, grow and thrive. But don’t just take our word for it, come and visit us and experience the magic of Abercromby Nursery School for yourself.

We look forward to welcoming you and your family.
