What Ofsted said about us...
'Children are happy at Howard Street Nursery. They arrive full of smiles and confidently say goodbye to their parents and carers'.
'Leaders and staff quickly identify any potential barriers to learning, including SEND, that children may face. Leaders ensure that children who need extra help benefit from a wide range of support, including from professionals outside of the school'.
'Leaders have established a meaningful and ambitious programme to promote pupils’ personal development. For example, leaders ensure that children experience wellthought-out cultural events at a local primary school'.
